Neumann!!!

Love it. It's so small, yet solid and sleek. The sound is brutally honest, and its size and decible tolerance is perfect for my "on the road studio."

TLM 102 a Nice Compromise

Bottom line...it does sound like a Neumann (103ish) and it's at a great price point. And it's about the size of the lavs I used when I started in TV 30 years ago. Well, almost.

I have only used it as an announcer mike, but it has done the job very well ...at a very good price. Most of us can't justify buying a mike that is worth more than our computers, so the more expensive Neumanns arn't likely to every find their way into our mike closets.

But the 102 gives you the opportunity to experience and utilize that Neumann magic at a price that will only damage, not break, the bank.

Shock mount or isolation very important for this mike. Ask you sales engineer for advice.
