The Pearlman TM-1 Tube Microphone is a hand built high-quality tube mic handmade for professional studio use yet not priced out of reach for the home recordist. A total workhorse of a mic, amazing on vocals, acoustic guitar, strings, and drums.

The TM-1 features a large diaphragm, 6 micron, gold sputtered capsule which sends the incoming signal to a New Old Stock EF80 tube (electrically identical, except for the heater voltage, to the very expensive Telefunken VF14 used in the famous Neumann U47) to the hand-wired circuit which includes selected WIMA polypropylene coupling capacitors to a state of the art output transformer custom designed (to match the European Tube output impedance) by the wonderful folks at CINEMAG Transformers in Los Angeles.
