AUDIO A-19: Telefunken M80 Supercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone (Item #M80)
One of my personal favorites! The Telefunken M80's wide frequency response, condenser-like performance, and high SPL capabilities allow it to capture the full range of any sound source, making it a reliable first choice for many sources including lead vocals and snare drum. Its unmatched performance is mated with intelligent internal construction to provide low handling noise. Hand-assembled in the USA, the M80’s rugged build quality is designed to withstand the wear and tear of the road.

SONIC CHARACTERISTIC
Due to its low mass capsule and super thin (yet surprisingly rugged) capsule membrane, the M80 presents a wider range of emotion from a live vocal with an intimacy that has been traditionally reserved for studio quality condenser microphones. The head and capsule assembly has been designed to reduce proximity effect to which nets added low-end clarity for vocals, while still providing "strength" and "authority" and an "open airy" character without adding danger of upper mid-range feedback.
CIRCUIT DESIGN
The M80 features a custom wound impedance matching transformer which is where the magic really takes place. When coupled with our proprietary capsule assembly, the results have won hearts and minds in far less time since it's introduction than we ever imagined possible.
CONSTRUCTION
Featuring a rugged black powder coat body and head-turning chrome plated headgrille, the M80 is built for the high demands of a touring vocal mic.
