The Telefunken Elektroakustik M62 Microphone Stereo Set comes with two identical M60 FET amplifiers paired with a matched set of TK62 hypercardioid polar pattern capsules. This set is perfect as a stereo pair of microphones for live performance recording applications.
The Telefunken Elektroakustik M62 Hyper-Cardioid Microphone Stereo Set utilizes the same interchangeable TK6x capsules as the TEC Award-winning ELA M 260 small diaphragm tube microphone.
TK62 Hypercardioid Capsule
The TK62 features a 6-micron gold-sputtered membrane measuring 15mm in diameter, with a surprisingly full low end, and a quick and accurate transient response. The TK62 provides a hypercardioid pattern flat in response from 150 Hz to 3 kHz, with a dip at 6 kHz and a smooth, airy presence peak at 8 kHz.
This tightened polar pattern is great for use on cymbals, percussion, and as a stereo pair for live performance recording.
Sonic Characteristic
The M60 FET Amplifier’s incredibly quick transient response captures nuances and subtleties with impressive precision and clarity. This results in an extremely detailed sonic image with definition and presence, perfectly suited for the complex character of stringed instruments and percussive sources.
Circuit Design
Utilizing a unique proprietary circuit topology, this re-interpretation of the classic FET mic amplifier produces an exceptional transient response and SPL handling capabilities. Carefully selected and tested components are hand-plugged into gold-plated circuit board traces to provide an ultra-clean true Class A discrete amplifier with a frequency response of +/- 2dB from 20 Hz to 50 kHz. The output is matched with a custom American-made transformer that offers an especially low self-noise and a typical THD+N of 0.015% or better, making it ideal for critical recording applications.
Construction
The M60 FET amplifier body is finished in a durable, lightly textured black powder coat adorned with the historic TELEFUNKEN diamond badge. The microphone’s XLR connector shell complements the look with a matte black nickel plated finish engraved with the model and serial number. The TK62 capsules feature a bright nickel plated enclosure with a fine gold mesh pattern.
