Telefunken M62 Hypercardioid Stereo Set

Precision Hypercardioid Stereo Microphone Set for Professional Recording
The Telefunken M62 FET Hypercardioid Stereo Set is a high-performance small-diaphragm condenser microphone package designed for detailed sound capture in both studio and live environments. This matched stereo set includes two M60 FET amplifiers and a pair of TK62 hypercardioid capsules, offering exceptional directional focus and transient response. Ideal for drum overheads, cymbals, acoustic instruments, and stereo recording applications, this set provides the clarity and precision demanded by recording engineers and musicians.

Tight Hypercardioid Pickup Pattern for Superior Isolation
The TK62 capsules feature a precisely engineered hypercardioid polar pattern that minimizes off-axis noise while capturing the fine details of your sound source. The 6-micron gold-sputtered membrane measures 15mm in diameter, delivering a rich low end, fast transient response, and a smooth, airy presence peak at 8 kHz. The frequency response is flat from 150 Hz to 3 kHz, with a gentle dip at 6 kHz to reduce unwanted harshness. This makes the M62 Stereo Set perfect for recording percussion, brass, woodwinds, and other instruments where tight directional control is needed.

Class A Circuitry for Ultra-Clean Audio Performance
Designed with a unique proprietary circuit topology, the M60 FET amplifier delivers an exceptionally fast transient response and high SPL handling capabilities. The circuit is hand-assembled using carefully selected components mounted on gold-plated circuit board traces to ensure the highest fidelity. The true Class A discrete amplifier design provides a frequency response of +/- 2dB from 20 Hz to 50 kHz, matched with a custom American-made transformer to maintain ultra-low self-noise and a typical THD+N of just 0.015%.

Ideal for Stereo Recording and Live Sound Applications
With two identical M62 microphones, this stereo set is perfect for capturing a balanced and natural stereo image. Whether used in an XY, ORTF, or spaced pair configuration, the hypercardioid pickup pattern ensures accurate spatial representation with minimal phase issues. This makes the M62 Stereo Set a great choice for drum overheads, grand piano, orchestral sections, and ambient room recordings. The precision-matched pair ensures consistent performance, making it a go-to microphone set for demanding professional applications.

Premium Build Quality and Vintage Aesthetic
The M62 FET amplifier body is finished in a durable, lightly textured black powder coat and features the iconic Telefunken diamond badge. The microphone’s XLR connector shell has a matte black nickel-plated finish, while the TK62 capsules are housed in a bright nickel-plated enclosure with a fine gold mesh pattern. Built with premium components and expert craftsmanship, the M62 Stereo Set is designed for long-term reliability in both studio and stage settings.
