I've been working with the TLM 107 for over a year now, and I can tell you that this microphone is a beast. Sounds amazing, is versatile, robust. The sound is real, clear, maybe not as natural as the Austrian Audio OC818 (which I also have), since Neumann microphones tend to have a "neumannian" sound. I would put the Austrian Audio OC818 in first place and the Neumann TLM 107 in second.
Thanks. Great vid. I have the 103, but in a 6x6 booth, it captures a fair amount of the room. Other cardioid only mics do too, but the 103 is particularly sensitive, so gets every single reflection. I tested a few other mics, including the 107, and found that super or hyper cardioid eliminates that for me, and I don't hear any of the rear reflections associated with that. Pretty much all other reflections are eliminated. Sounds very intimate and tight, which is what I'm after. The Rode K2 was one I tested, and you can dial in between patterns, so infinite choices - but the TLM107 won out; Neumann sound plus hyper cardioid option! (the only other was TLM170, but it's very expensive and I've heard can pick up radio waves).
Excellent comment! Do you think the TLM107 could work well as a talking head video and podcast mic in a partially treated, difficult room? Thanks & greetings!
I work with assorted high level mics in my studio and can tell you that the 102 is the best mic in it's price range by far... I prefer it to the 103. If the 102 has a little to much crispness for the particular vocalist a simple EQ roll off around 6000 Hz takes it more along the lines of the 103. I'll also state that I believe the 102 sounds more like a 47 than the 103 does.
@@kensmechanicalaffair Absolutely... Don't buy the hype of low tonality on a mic. Buy the hype of a very well glued mic like the 102. Again, I've worked with many high end mics and the 102 is incredible for the price. Nothing like it on the market.
The TLM 170 is my favorite mic. I would take it over a U87 or even classic mics like the U47. It's multi-pattern, so it's more practical. I like the 103, I own a pair, but it doesn't always work for every voice or instrument. The 170 does.
Out of all of these mics, which one is best for more than vocals…The 107? I’m hoping to use it for acoustic guitar, cello, violin, and distortion amps.
@@JoeyDeNoble-po1fi 107 will be the most versatile sounding, I think. The 102 is nice because it can get into small spaces, and isn't in the way. They will all sound great on anything.

From a person, who haved work with tons of high end microphones, i can guaratee yall, that 102 is the winner, is the more sensitive of them all, with a really nice highs, clarity and crispy, that the others dont have, with the 3 mics at the same distance, the 102 have less end, but its more sensitive to the proximity effect, if you get a little closer to the 102, you get a really nice low and a really good crispy on the high's, and personally, i think its easier (at least for me), to give more warmth to the 102 with EQ, compared to trying make the 103 or 107 more crispy. If you dont want to spend the time and the effort working on the 102, get the 103, its the more balanced of them all, and its "idiot proof".
Excellent video and comparison. I'm battling trying to figure out which Neumann to purchase, money is a factor but I want to buy the right one and possible spending more may be the route to go.

With mics you get what you pay for! Usually just deals with less harsh frequencies you have to cut out and certain frequencies that are boosted that make the mic shine in certain ways rather its warmth or airiness or a nice thickness to your voice like tube mics usually give.
I dont feel the same about the NT1 on Vocals. I prefered it on Instruments more especially in Electric Guitar.Had both NT1A and NT1.I tried the New AKG C-3000 Made in China for Vocals and prefered that to it let alone the TLM-102 which sounds so much better for Vocals. It has that clarity the NT1 doesn't have.
“Just as nice sounding” This just isn’t true. Any one of these mics are just better than a Rode NT1. I know people like to justify their purchases and the NT1 is definitely a capable mic, but there’s no such thing as “x mic is cheaper but gives me just as good sound”.

There are quite a few more on the TLM series. The TLM171 R and the TLM193, based on the K89 capsule found in the Neumann U89. (The TLM193 is cardioid only). Then there is the TLM67, based on the U67, and the TLM49, based on the legendary M49. Still, good video- thanks!
Talk in terms of wider vocal without eq, this video does not show the total capability of any of these tlm's. If you really wanna know, try with individual with lower pitch ( that's when one differs from other actually), In this video you can hardly notice anything. TLM 103 is actually the best of all, for studios you can have people with wide vocal range, not specific to one individual. So you have a better freq range. 107 is good looking mic I can give but 102 is seriously not in the same league, better you go with Rode N1 rather than 102
@@refugioflores2226 I have it it’s worth it due to the fact you really don’t need much sound proofing although it’s always best to record in a treated room
@@ProdNapoleon oh so the 102 is harder to to treat for the room? . I’m really deciding I’ve seen other post some ppl mention other brands for the money of the 102 I could get something better but I really don’t have access to try different options

does anyone know which which mic is better for hiphop vocals? or if it matters which one it is? im going to buy one just dont know which one would do best
Which ones you would recommend me for acustic grand piano. Currently I used 2 tlm 102 for it backed up for the 103 midside within an Rode NT2A polar pattern (Rode figure of 8 and tlm 103 directly forming the midside amonga them, and I also use the 103 strictly for voices and other instruments within mono recordings. Thanks 😀 Thanks
You never mentioned that the 102 needs extremely quite environment. 102 is actually damn sensitive to the slightest of noises. Thats why cant trust online reviews. U give a perfect picture of any product. You misguide us. Very wrong. Not an honest reviewer.
U should’ve done more research. 102 has like a 12db self noise while tlm is extremely quiet as its only 7db self noise. U will hear cars driving passed & all that. But that’s why room acoustics & treatment is so important. If u haven’t invested in that, then going for higher end mics might actually make your recordings worst because every little noise will be captured with such detail
yeah im really sorry man because im guilty of watching like 20 of your videos without subscribing but i just did subscribe now so we are good lol i also turned on notifications
The TLM 170 is actually the best mic Neumann ever made. Thanks for NOT including it. The TLM 170 R was the first microphone with the now so successful fet-100 technology. It offers balanced, transformerless signal decoupling and highest controllability with extremely low inherent-noise. It’s more expensive but worth every penny.
Can’t tell if you’re happy he didn’t include it(obviously because the 170 is mad pricey!) or because you’re actually bummed out the dude didn’t have the cash to get one because it’s mad pricey ….
I would have preferred if he included the TLM 193 in the comparison. It is the cardioid only TLM 170 for half the price which makes it much more comparable to the 102 and 103.
@@Currywurst-zo8oo don’t think it would sound the same as the 170 because the 170 is a dual membrane capsule while the 193 is single,,,, single and dual do sound quite a bit different, I prefer single ( with mics under $1500 though) , top dollar mics they are all phenomenal, in this guys review I totally prefer the 107 it’s almost like the 103 without the harsh highs, and the 102 with the full lowend
@@rylandweet7750Are you sure that the TLM 193 only has a single diaphragm? Manufactures today just use dual diaphagms for some of their microphones because they are easier to tune that way. Another example would be the cardioid only AT 4040. They might not be identical but when you use the TLM 170 in cardioid mode they sound basically the same. A lot of people say that the 170 is simply a better 107 so I was very curious how the 193 fairs against other cardioid only mics like the 103.
@@Currywurst-zo8oo, TLM 193 uses a dual-diaphragm capsule but is a cardioid-only microphone. Only its front diaphragm is connected electrically while the rear diaphragm is just a passive element of the acoustical design, didn’t think it was but yep it sure is! The at4040 is single. I replace them all the time actually, but both the 193 and 4040 are edge terminated

If you really wanna know, try with individual with lower pitch ( that's when one differs from other actually), In this video you can hardly notice anything.
TLM 103 is actually the best of all, for studios you can have people with wide vocal range, not specific to one individual. So you have a better freq range. 107 is good looking mic I can give but 102 is seriously not in the same league, better you go with Rode N1 rather than 102
Wonderful voice
U r legend bro....🔥🔥🔥🔥
I feel that same I love the TLM 102 AND TLM 103
I OWN BOTH I RECOMMEND BOTH
is the 103 worth the price difference ? i want it for vocals ony i dont want too much bass
@@refugioflores2226 I have it it’s worth it due to the fact you really don’t need much sound proofing although it’s always best to record in a treated room
@@ProdNapoleon oh so the 102 is harder to to treat for the room? . I’m really deciding I’ve seen other post some ppl mention other brands for the money of the 102 I could get something better but I really don’t have access to try different options
@@refugioflores2226 I don’t have the 102 I’m pretty sure it’s a great mic but as far as the 103 it’s definitely worth the price I’m not even that good at mixing but this is how my friend sounds with the tlm 103

What's the pop filter??
Looks like the Hakan P110 to me.
बढ़िया जानकारी 👏❤️🇮🇳
What about the tlm 49????
does anyone know which which mic is better for hiphop vocals? or if it matters which one it is? im going to buy one just dont know which one would do best
Tlm 49
@@Zatch700 is it good for mid deep voices ? sorry for asking a lot of questions
Which ones you would recommend me for acustic grand piano. Currently I used 2 tlm 102 for it backed up for the 103 midside within an Rode NT2A polar pattern (Rode figure of 8 and tlm 103 directly forming the midside amonga them, and I also use the 103 strictly for voices and other instruments within mono recordings. Thanks 😀
Thanks
I'd love to hear that combo
Süper keşke benim olsa

Helloooo Nuemann!
Suscrito!!
The TLM 103 has more sensibility than the TLM 107. I prefer that for vocals. It makes them more musical.
The yoddler 😂
You never mentioned that the 102 needs extremely quite environment. 102 is actually damn sensitive to the slightest of noises. Thats why cant trust online reviews. U give a perfect picture of any product. You misguide us. Very wrong. Not an honest reviewer.
Damn right
U should’ve done more research. 102 has like a 12db self noise while tlm is extremely quiet as its only 7db self noise.
U will hear cars driving passed & all that. But that’s why room acoustics & treatment is so important. If u haven’t invested in that, then going for higher end mics might actually make your recordings worst because every little noise will be captured with such detail
@@Kay_Locc I have seen some videos which determine this problem. I have done my research well.
@@Kay_Locc Why do youtubers get such a pro sound out of their mics whereas when I use it I get a normal sound which is not impressive.
@@mychess5821same thing happen to me .. i dont know how they do it

What, no TLM49 and TLM170? 😉
Bro you should’ve talked into them smh lol
Please learn a new song.....🤣
bruh nostril singing and falsetto whining is not enough to compare them wtf lmao
Shame Beiber won't a do a comparison for you. Ask him see what he says.
You have such a pretty voice, but why do you pronounce words like that? It's so cringe.
The 107 🤯
yeah im really sorry man because im guilty of watching like 20 of your videos without subscribing but i just did subscribe now so we are good lol i also turned on notifications
Thanks for subbing! 🙏🏻
102 🔥 🧐
The TLM 170 is actually the best mic Neumann ever made. Thanks for NOT including it. The TLM 170 R was the first microphone with the now so successful fet-100 technology. It offers balanced, transformerless signal decoupling and highest controllability with extremely low inherent-noise. It’s more expensive but worth every penny.
Can’t tell if you’re happy he didn’t include it(obviously because the 170 is mad pricey!) or because you’re actually bummed out the dude didn’t have the cash to get one because it’s mad pricey ….
I would have preferred if he included the TLM 193 in the comparison. It is the cardioid only TLM 170 for half the price which makes it much more comparable to the 102 and 103.
@@Currywurst-zo8oo don’t think it would sound the same as the 170 because the 170 is a dual membrane capsule while the 193 is single,,,, single and dual do sound quite a bit different, I prefer single ( with mics under $1500 though) , top dollar mics they are all phenomenal, in this guys review I totally prefer the 107 it’s almost like the 103 without the harsh highs, and the 102 with the full lowend
@@rylandweet7750Are you sure that the TLM 193 only has a single diaphragm? Manufactures today just use dual diaphagms for some of their microphones because they are easier to tune that way. Another example would be the cardioid only AT 4040.
They might not be identical but when you use the TLM 170 in cardioid mode they sound basically the same.
A lot of people say that the 170 is simply a better 107 so I was very curious how the 193 fairs against other cardioid only mics like the 103.
@@Currywurst-zo8oo, TLM 193 uses a dual-diaphragm capsule but is a cardioid-only microphone. Only its front diaphragm is connected electrically while the rear diaphragm is just a passive element of the acoustical design, didn’t think it was but yep it sure is!
The at4040 is single. I replace them all the time actually, but both the 193 and 4040 are edge terminated
