TELEFUNKEN M81 Supercardioid Dynamic Handheld Vocal Microphone Gold

The TELEFUNKEN M81 supercardioid dynamic handheld vocal microphone delivers a tailored frequency response that enhances clarity and body for a wide range of instruments. With its flatter top end and articulate midrange, the M81 tames brighter vocal tones and fattens up thinner-sounding sources like percussion, horns and electric guitars—making it an incredibly versatile tool for live performance and studio recording.

Sculpted Response Ideal for Guitar and Vocals

You'll appreciate the M81's tailored frequency curve when recording electric guitars. Its balanced response complements the iconic TELEFUNKEN AR-51 microphone, allowing you to capture every nuance of your guitar tone with warmth and presence. The M81 also shines on vocals, providing a full, natural sound that cuts through the mix without harshness. Its minimal proximity effect and superior feedback rejection keep your vocals sitting perfectly in the pocket.

Superb Performance on Drums and Brass

While excelling on guitars and vocals, the M81 truly shines when miking up drums and brass instruments. Position it on rack toms, floor toms and percussion to capture a thick, punchy attack with plenty of low-end thump. Brass players will love how the M81 translates every breath and articulation with clarity and body. No matter the source, you get a wealth of tone-sculpting power in this dynamic handheld mic.

Rugged Workhorse Design Built to Last

The TELEFUNKEN M81 lives up to its workhorse reputation with a road-proven design that can withstand the rigors of pro touring. Its distinctive flint gray body tube and tri-chrome head grille pay homage to the classic styling of the legendary R-F-T AR-51. Yet this mic offers thoroughly modern performance, delivering optimal sound reinforcement and recording capabilities night after night. You can rely on the M81 as your go-to dynamic mic for virtually any application.
