With its transformerless circuitry and a signal-to-noise ratio of 72 dB, it delivers exceptional audio clarity while maintaining a low noise floor. Weighing only 2.05 kg, this microphone is both portable and easy to handle, making it a favorite among audio professionals. ## Description Overview The nickel TLM 103 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone from Neumann is a cardioid, directional microphone that features low self-noise and high sound pressure level transmission. The capsule, derived from that used in the Neumann U 87, has a cardioid pattern, is acoustically well-balanced and provides great attenuation of signals from the rear. Plus an Auray SSM-NMN Suspension Shockmount is designed to provide shock isolation for select Neumann microphones commonly used for broadcast and voiceover applications.

I have a light baritone vocal quality and it plays really well with it. I run it through an UA Apollo Twin X and it sounds buttery and crisp and feels perfect for audiobook narration. I do more character than narration however, and while I am happy with the quality of this microphone, I've found myself preferring my Sennheiser MKH416. A lot of VO artists carry both in their mic locker and I have no desire to get rid of my 103. It's a staple of the industry to be sure, but if this was definitely a purchase I would not have made at full price if the two were side-by-side. Review: I purchased this mic for my home studio. It’s mounted on a boom stand (upside down) inside my sound booth and used only for voice-over work. I also own a Neumann U87 Ai. I have recorded the same voice-over script with both mics numerous times and they sound almost identical. If anything, the 103 gets the nod most of the time. It’s my go to mic for sure. Love it! ## Features - Large diaphragm capsule cardioid microphone - Pressure gradient transducer - Transformerless circuitry - Low noise - Straightforward handling for home recording and professional studios ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Microphone form factor | Large Diaphragm | | Power source | adapter | | Signal-to-noise ratio | 72 dB | | Number of channels | 1 | | Manufacturer | Neumann | | Package Dimensions | 31 x 26.6 x 17.3 cm; 2.05 kg | | Item model number | NETLM103K1 | | Item Weight | 2.05 kg | ## Product Details - **Recommended uses for product:** Studio Recordings, Live Vocal Performances - **Brand:** Neumann - **Connectivity technology:** XLR - **Connector type:** XLR - **Special feature:** Stand - **Compatible devices:** Personal Computer - **Included components:** Stand, Shock mount - **Polar pattern:** Unidirectional - **Audio sensitivity:** 87 dB - **Impedance:** 50 Ohm ## Images ![Neumann TLM 103 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone (Nickel) With Suspension Shockmount - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51qUdfYZICL.jpg) ![Neumann TLM 103 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone (Nickel) With Suspension Shockmount - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51PQyP5i2sL.jpg) ![Neumann TLM 103 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone (Nickel) With Suspension Shockmount - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41BH7mXW2qL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: why nickel over just black?** A: It’s just a style. The color has no difference in the actual mic **Q: Compared to the u 87, is the tlm 103 the second or so ideal choice for professional voice overs in film, animation, etc? wherewoulditstandonthechart?** A: absolutely! I own a professional recording studio and use it everyday in every recording for tracking voices, acoustic guitars and the results are always great! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by W***R on 19 December 2025* Voiceover hobbyist for about twenty years, here.
