Telefunken M81 Dynamic Microphone (Purple Body, Black Grille)

Versatile Dynamic Microphone for Stage and Studio
The Telefunken M81 PURPLE w/ BLACK NICKEL is a premium handheld dynamic microphone designed for vocalists, musicians, and engineers who require clarity, durability, and consistent performance. Featuring a striking purple body with a black grille, this microphone offers the sonic precision of a condenser with the durability of a dynamic mic. Whether you are performing live on stage or recording in the studio, the M81 ensures a balanced frequency response that delivers smooth midrange tones while controlling high-end harshness.

Balanced Frequency Response for a Natural Sound
Unlike many dynamic microphones that emphasize high frequencies, the M81 provides a well-rounded sound with a focus on midrange clarity. Its frequency response of 50 Hz to 18 kHz ensures that vocals remain present without becoming overly bright. This design makes it ideal for singers who need a mic that reduces sibilance while still cutting through a live mix. Additionally, it is a great choice for capturing guitar cabinets, brass instruments, and percussion.

Supercardioid Polar Pattern for Superior Isolation
The M81 features a supercardioid pickup pattern that offers excellent off-axis rejection and superior feedback control. This ensures that the microphone captures only the intended sound source while rejecting unwanted background noise. Whether used in a high-volume stage environment or a controlled studio setting, the M81 helps maintain clarity and precision in any performance.

Custom-Wound Transformer for Consistent Sound Quality
Equipped with a custom-wound Telefunken T80 transformer, the M81 maintains a consistent tonal character across different preamps and audio interfaces. This ensures that the microphone delivers a reliable sound regardless of the equipment it is connected to. With a high maximum SPL of 135 dB, it can handle loud sources without distortion, making it suitable for both soft vocalists and powerful drummers.

Durable Construction with a Bold Aesthetic
Built to withstand the rigors of touring and daily studio use, the M81 PURPLE w/ BLACK NICKEL features a solid metal body and rugged grille. Its unique color combination adds a distinctive visual touch, setting it apart from standard microphones. The included mic clip and leather storage bag provide convenience and protection, ensuring the microphone remains in top condition for years to come.
