If you're seeking a high-quality, superior alternative to the typical midrange-focused "industry standard microphone", look no further than the M80 Custom Handheld Supercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone by Telefunken Elektroakustik. This exceptional microphone is designed with a wider frequency response and higher SPL capabilities, delivering condenser-like performance in a robust dynamic design. This makes the M80 an ideal choice for both on-stage performances and studio recordings.
The M80's sonic characteristics are truly unique. Thanks to its low mass capsule and super thin, yet impressively durable, capsule membrane, the M80 captures a broader range of emotional nuances from live vocals. It offers an intimacy typically associated with studio-quality condenser microphones. The specially designed head and capsule assembly minimizes proximity effect, enhancing low-end clarity for vocals. This results in a microphone that delivers "strength" and "authority", along with an "open," "airy" character, without the risk of upper midrange feedback or "honk".
The M80's circuit design is another standout feature. It includes an American-made custom wound impedance matching transformer, which is the secret behind the microphone's exceptional performance. When paired with our proprietary capsule assembly, the M80 has quickly won over users since its introduction.
The M80 is not just about performance, it's also built to last. With a rugged oak body and a striking gold grille, the M80 is designed to withstand the rigors of touring. Each M80 Dynamic microphone comes with a leather zipper bag and an M780 mic clip, ensuring you have everything you need for your next performance or recording session. Experience the difference with the M80 Custom Handheld Supercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone.
