The Telefunken Elektroakustik TF51 Tube Microphones are a fresh take on the Austrian microphone sound associated with the Telefunken ELA M 251E and C12. This matched pair are ideal for your stereo recordings.

The TF51 continues this legacy, exhibiting a smooth midrange and airy top end and capturing every nuance in pleasant detail. The TF51 is a reliable first choice for stand out vocals, acoustic instruments, and percussion.

Matched Pair
This matched pair includes two individual TF51 Tube Microphones that have sequentially serial numbered and have been matched within +/-1dB of gain between 20Hz and 20kHz. 

Circuit Design
This lifelike fidelity is created with high quality components based off these inspirations. The 6072A vacuum tube (also found in our ELA M 251E and C12) is mated with an edge-terminated style capsule similar to the historic CK12. The output transformer is a custom German-made Haufe transformer, the original manufacturer for TELEFUNKEN. This attention to detail gives the TF51 a beautifully open and smooth sonic profile.
