SPOTLIGHT REVIEW

Sound: The sound through this mic is AWSOME. It is very crisp and clear.. just what i wanted. Hook it up to a GOOD PREAMP (tube or solidstate) and u will get awsome results. I use it exclusively for vocals which is what its designed for. I recorded using the TLM103 before and the tlm49 KNOCKS IT OFF !! It's brand new, and from the first couple of tests it sounds amazing. Gives u that richness and depth in the low frequencies. Feature: It only included a shockmount EA3, which was kinda hard to assemble, i dunno if i assembled it the way i should but it works so im fine with how i assembled it!! Its a one pattern cardiod mic, so it got no additional features. Ease of Use: With a good preamp, u can go from rich thick warm voice to crisp crystal clear sound. It gives me the variation i need. Quality: IT'S A NEUMANN!! Its heavy and fees like it could last for age.. Value: It was a bit over my budget and compared to other mics too. But considering that it's a NEUMANN and vocalist reviews i read, it was worth it. And when i first plugged it in to give it the 1st try, it was worth it! Manufacturer Support: Didn't try and hope i wont need to. The Wow Factor: Its not sexy, its CHARISMATIC! The color, the heavy (almost 1 KG) weight, the hard solid metal its made out of, the shape and its LAARRGGE grill gives it an attitude and its very very appealing. Overall: Replace it ? Ofcourse not! I will be using this mic for a long long time! If i get another mic i will definitly use both in different projects as the tlm49 is irreplacable!

VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: The TLM49 is a little hyped in the 4k to 5khz range. If you got a good channel strip like an Avalon VT737 you're going to be able to raise the 15khz (by about 3 db) to balance the mic out for some great vocal recordings. Quality: Uses the k47 capsule that the M49 and U47 used then. Value: Priced very fairly for this type of quality.
