Telefunken M81 GRAY - Dynamic Handheld Vocal Microphone

High-Performance Supercardioid Dynamic Microphone in a Sleek Gray Finish
The Telefunken M81 Gray Dynamic Microphone is a premium handheld mic built for studio and live applications, offering exceptional clarity, minimal proximity effect, and superior feedback rejection. Designed as a versatile alternative to the M80, this microphone delivers a slightly more even frequency response, making it ideal for vocals, snare drums, guitar cabinets, brass instruments, and more. With its durable gray finish, the M81 provides a professional look while maintaining the legendary sound quality Telefunken is known for.

Smooth and Balanced Frequency Response for Natural Sound
Unlike many handheld dynamic microphones that exaggerate high frequencies, the M81 is designed to provide a smoother, more neutral response. This makes it an excellent choice for vocalists who need clarity without excessive brightness. It also ensures that instruments maintain their natural tone, making it a go-to microphone for recording engineers and live sound professionals looking for a reliable and balanced mic.

Supercardioid Pickup Pattern for Maximum Isolation
The M81 features a supercardioid polar pattern, which effectively isolates the intended sound source while rejecting unwanted background noise. This tight pickup pattern makes it particularly effective in live performance settings where stage noise and bleed from other instruments can be an issue. Whether used on a loud stage or in a controlled studio environment, the M81 ensures precise and focused sound capture.

Handles High Sound Pressure Levels with Ease
With an SPL handling capacity of up to 135 dB, the M81 is built to capture loud sound sources without distortion. Whether placed in front of a cranked guitar amp, a snare drum, or a powerful brass instrument, this microphone maintains its integrity, allowing for high-energy performances to be captured with accuracy and detail.

Reduced Proximity Effect for Consistent Low-End Response
One of the standout features of the M81 is its ability to minimize proximity effect, which can cause excessive bass buildup when the mic is used up close. Telefunken has designed the head and capsule to deliver a controlled low end, ensuring that vocals and instruments remain clear and defined even when mic placement varies. This makes it a great choice for performers who move around frequently while singing or speaking.

Rugged Construction with a Professional Gray Finish
Built for the demands of touring and professional studio work, the M81 features a sturdy construction that can handle the rigors of daily use. Its sleek gray finish gives it a modern, professional appearance while protecting the mic from wear and tear. Whether used in a live performance setting or a recording studio, this microphone is built to last while maintaining consistent sound quality.

Includes Essential Accessories for Convenience
The M81 comes complete with a microphone clip and a protective storage bag, making it easy to transport and set up for any performance or recording session. Its universal compatibility with standard mic stands and XLR connections ensures seamless integration into any audio setup.
