Neumann TLM 170 R Stereo Set 2x TLM 170 R Microphones with EA 170 Mount in Mic Briefcase

Transparent, linear, versatile: the Pro choice for any recording environment

The Neumann TLM 170 R Stereo Set is a matched-set of (2) TLM 170 R multipattern condenser microphones. A truly universal microphone from Neumann, the TLM 170 R shines in even the most demanding recording situations. It features the Neumann touch, combining technical excellence with the smoothness and flexibility of a large diaphragm capsule, and delivering a remarkably even, linear response—both on- and off-axis—using any of its 5 (!) selectable directional patterns. The polar patterns are selected via a rotary switch: omni, wide-cardioid, cardioid, hypercardioid, and figure-8. Also, these patterns may be remote controlled via the optional N248 PSU (sold separately). This exceptional mic enables transparent capture of the natural sound of any source, including its room ambience.

It can handle extremely loud sources of 154 dB SPL using the –10 dB preattenuation switch. Another switch activates a 100 Hz low-cut.

Available in your choice of Satin Nickel or Matte Black. Additionally, further information can be found within the "TLM170 R Brochure" located under the "Documentation" tab above.
