Authorized Dealer.   Full WarrantyThe TLM 102* defines a new generation of Neumann studio microphones. This applies not only to the design of the microphone but also to the price.The reduced overall size contributes to an exceptionally compact appearance, which unites all of the typical design components of a Neumann microphone. The harmonious proportions and gleaming grille ring ensure that even at first glance, the TLM 102 attracts attention.The TLM 102 is impressive in terms of sound: In the interior is a newly developed large-diaphragm capsule (cardioid) with a maximum sound pressure level of 144 dB, which permits the recording of percussion, drums, amps and other very loud sound sources, for example. Instruments that are not especially loud also benefit from the very fast transient response of the TLM 102. However its most important applications are in the realm of vocals and speech; a slight boost above 6 kHz provides for excellent presence of the voice in the overall mix. Up to 6 kHz the frequency response is extremely linear, ensuring minimal coloration and a clearly defined bass range. The capsule has an elastic suspension for the suppression of structure-borne noise. A pop screen integrated into the grille serves to suppress plosives in vocal and speech recording. Due to its price and flexible field of application, the TLM 102 is ideal for the home recording and project studio sector, as well as for the broadcasting area, especially when clear lines of sight to the speakers are a priority.The TLM 102 is available in nickel; a stand mount is included.Large-diaphragm microphone with cardioid directional characteristic (pressure gradient transducer)Compact, characteristic but smaller-scale Neumann designVery high maximum sound pressure levelSlight presence boost above 6 kHzTransformerless circuitryAcoustical operating principle Pressure gradient transducerDirectional pattern CardioidFrequency range 20 Hz ... 20 kHzSensitivity at 1 kHz into 1 kohm 11 mV/PaRated impedance 50 ohmsRated load impedance 1 kohmsEquivalent noise level, CCIR1) 21 dBEquivalent noise level, A-weighted1) 12 dB-ASignal-to-noise ratio, CCIR1) (rel. 94 dB SPL) 73 dBSignal-to-noise ratio, A-weighted1) (rel. 94 dB SPL) 82 dBMaximum SPL for THD 0.5%2) 144 dBMaximum output voltage 13 dBuSupply voltage (P48, IEC 61938) 48 V ± 4 VCurrent consumption (P48, IEC 61938) 3.5 mAMatching connector XLR3FWeight approx. 260 gDiameter 52 mmLength 116 mm______________________________________________1) according to IEC 60268-1; CCIR-weighting acccording to CCIR 468-3, quasi peak; A-weighting according to IEC 61672-1, RMS2) measured as equivalent el. input signal
