Open Box TELEFUNKEN TF51 Tube Microphone Level 1

Telefunken is proud to offer the TF51, a premium tube condenser microphone inspired by revered classics yet voiced for today's studio. Handcrafted in Connecticut using top-drawer components, the TF51 delivers a stunningly lifelike sound suited to capturing every nuance of vocals and acoustic instruments. Its smooth, open tone recalls vintage Austrian mics of yore while an innovative multi-pattern power supply provides creative freedom.

Premium Components For Unparalleled Fidelity

At the heart of the TF51's astonishing fidelity lies a marriage of premium components including a 6072A vacuum tube and transformer made by Haufe, the original manufacturer for Telefunken. Together with an edge-terminated capsule evoking the CK12 of legend, these parts conjure a sound as natural and dimensional as the performance itself. One listen and you'll understand why the TF51 is a compelling first choice for standout vocal and acoustic tracks.

Versatile Polar Patterns For Creative Recording

Shape your sound with the turn of a dial thanks to the TF51's multi-pattern M903 power supply. Choose from cardioid, omnidirectional or figure-8 polar patterns to explore an array of recording techniques. Capture a symphony orchestra or track a drum kit with pristine clarity using the omni pattern. Employ the figure-8 to implement mid-side (M-S) recording for an immersive stereo image. With two TF51s, craft impeccable spaced pair, X-Y or ORTF arrays. The possibilities are as endless as your imagination.

Inspired By Legends, Made For Today

The TF51 takes inspiration from revered Austrian mics of yore—the ELA M 251E and C12—melding their signature smooth and airy sound with modern versatility. The result is a tube condenser microphone that evokes vintage character yet proves ideal for today's diverse recording needs. Whether you're after the warmth of tubes or the precision of multiple patterns, the TF51 delivers in spades.
