About this listing
A Compact Large-Diaphragm FET Microphone for Studio and Live UseThe Telefunken TF11 FET is a large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone designed for versatility across all recording environments. Combining an Austrian-inspired voicing reminiscent of the legendary C12 with modern FET circuitry, the TF11 delivers an open and detailed frequency response with fast transient accuracy. Whether recording vocals, drum overheads, or acoustic instruments, this microphone captures sound with clarity and precision, making it an excellent choice for both studio and live applications.Classic Sound with Modern PerformanceBuilt with inspiration from vintage condenser microphones, the TF11 offers a smooth, natural sound that enhances a wide range of sources. Its extended high-frequency response ensures clarity and airiness, while its ability to handle high SPLs makes it suitable for louder sound sources like drums and amplifiers. With its low self-noise and consistent performance, the TF11 is a go-to microphone for engineers seeking high-quality recordings without the need for external power supplies.Premium Components for Exceptional Audio QualityAt the heart of the TF11 is a CK12-style edge-terminated capsule, which provides the microphone’s signature airy and detailed sound. The amplifier circuit utilizes premium through-hole components, including a custom OEP/Carnhill transformer made in the UK. This large-format nickel-iron core transformer enhances signal integrity and delivers a full-bodied yet transparent sound. These high-quality components ensure reliability, making the TF11 a durable and long-lasting investment.Fixed Cardioid Polar Pattern for Focused RecordingThe TF11 features a cardioid-only pickup pattern, making it ideal for isolating sound sources while reducing unwanted background noise. This focused directionality allows for clean and clear recordings, whether tracking lead vocals, acoustic guitar, or orchestral instruments. The microphone’s ability to handle SPLs up to 135 dB ensures distortion-free recording of louder instruments, making it a valuable tool for capturing everything from soft vocals to dynamic drum performances.Designed for Portability and Ease of UseWith its compact form factor and lightweight design, the TF11 is easy to set up and transport, making it ideal for mobile recording setups and live performances. Unlike traditional tube microphones, which require external power supplies and proprietary cables, the TF11 operates on standard 48V phantom power, simplifying the recording process. This streamlined design makes it an excellent choice for engineers and musicians who need a high-performance microphone without the bulk of additional gear.Hand-Assembled and Rigorously Tested in the USAEvery TF11 microphone is hand-assembled and tested in the USA to ensure top-tier performance and consistency. Each critical component, including the capsule, amplifier circuit, and transformer, is rigorously inspected and tuned for optimal sound quality. This attention to detail guarantees that every TF11 meets the highest professional recording standards.Complete System with Essential AccessoriesThe TF11 comes with all necessary accessories for a complete recording setup. This package includes an M 703 elastic shock mount for vibration isolation, an M 782 stand mount for secure positioning, and an MC11 storage box for safe transport and protection.
