General

The Neumann TLM 103 large-diaphragm condenser microphone boasts modern sound backed up by a rich legacy. The capsule has been based on the K67/87 capsule that formed the heart of the legendary U 67 and U 87 microphones, so you're assured of the same level of mid-frequency detail alongside the more modern touch of a broader presence boost. Unlike the U 67 and U 87, the TLM 103 has a completely transformer and valve free design that guarantees a clean signal. When recording quieter instruments and sources, you get none of the usual noise and, when capturing louder sources like drums and guitar amplifiers, you're able to record with zero distortion. The TLM 103 Studio Set includes a deluxe EA1 shockmount and a pair of Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones.

The Sennheiser HD 280 Pro Headphones

So you can experience the sound quality of this professional microphone in full, Neumann has included a pair of Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones. These comfortable, closed headphones are ideal for studio work and, thanks to the low-impedance, can just as easily be plugged into your phone.

Wrote the following about Neumann TLM 103 Studio Set Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

Really happy with this mic. I bought it as a mic for life - for an amateur musician it is expensive but the internet is pretty much unanimous that for that money you're not going to find a more dependable, versatile mic. It's stood the test of a couple of decades of use and is still raved about by a wide range of top musicians and producers. I upgraded from the Rode NT1a to this and the sense of clarity is great. It feels good singing into something that sounds like this and if you feel good you'll make your best recordings.
