For musicians, podcasters, and audio professionals seeking uncompromising sound quality, the Telefunken M 80 Turquoise Microphone offers a reliable, precision-engineered solution. Capturing clear, focused audio in a variety of settings can be challenging, especially when background noise or feedback threatens to degrade your recording or live sound. The Telefunken M 80 Turquoise addresses these issues head-on by combining a supercardioid polar pattern with a dynamic moving coil capsule, ensuring your voice or instrument is captured with exceptional clarity and minimal interference.

At the heart of the M 80 Turquoise is a 25 mm dynamic moving coil capsule paired with the TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik T80 transformer. This combination provides a sensitivity of 1.54 mV/Pa, allowing the microphone to pick up subtle nuances in your performance without distortion. What this means for you is a microphone that delivers natural, transparent sound reproduction, whether you are recording vocals or amplifying instruments on stage. The supercardioid polar pattern further enhances this clarity by focusing on the sound source directly in front of the microphone while effectively rejecting off-axis noise. This results in a cleaner mix and reduces the need for extensive post-processing.

The microphone’s frequency response ranges from 50 Hz to 18 kHz with a ±3 dB variance, covering the essential frequencies needed for vocals and many instruments. This broad range ensures that your recordings retain warmth in the low end and crispness in the highs without artificial coloration. Additionally, the M 80 Turquoise can handle sound pressure levels up to 135 dB with only 1% total harmonic distortion, meaning it performs exceptionally well even with loud sources like electric guitar cabinets or powerful vocals without clipping or distortion.

Physically, the microphone measures 184 mm in length with a diameter of 48 mm and weighs 430 grams. This makes it comfortable to hold and easy to position on stands without adding excessive bulk or weight. The durable construction ensures it withstands the rigors of touring and daily use, giving you confidence in its longevity. Its distinctive turquoise finish not only adds a professional aesthetic but also makes it easily identifiable in a crowded setup.

Whether you are a live performer looking to reduce feedback and isolate your sound in high-volume environments, a recording engineer aiming for pristine vocal tracks, or a content creator wanting consistent, high-quality audio capture, the M 80 Turquoise is designed to meet these demands. Its ability to deliver clear, focused sound with excellent off-axis rejection makes it ideal for stage performances, studio recordings, broadcasting, and podcasting.
