  Telefunken TF51 Stereo Set

Stereo Matching That Goes Beyond the Standard

When precision matters, the TF51 matched pair delivers. Each microphone in the set is carefully tested to ensure less than 1dB of deviation in frequency response and sensitivity from 20Hz to 20kHz. With sequential serial numbers and rigorous matching, these mics are ideal for advanced stereo recording techniques such as ORTF, XY, Blumlein, or spaced pair—giving you reliable depth and image stability. Whether you’re layering string sections, capturing piano performances, or tracking immersive ambient sounds, this pair ensures clarity and symmetry in every take.

The Heart of the TF51: Vintage Circuit, Modern Execution

At the core of each TF51 tube microphone is a carefully selected 6072A vacuum tube—the same dual-triode used in Telefunken’s flagship tube microphones. This tube feeds into a CK12-style edge-terminated capsule, chosen for its ability to reproduce rich harmonic detail with minimal coloration. The signal path is completed with a German-made Haufe T14/1 transformer, adding subtle saturation and low-end integrity that give the TF51 its unmistakable musicality. The result? A sonic signature that’s airy, articulate, and effortlessly musical—perfect for high-end vocal recordings, detailed acoustic instruments, or room miking in classical and jazz sessions.

Multi-Pattern Flexibility for Any Session

Each microphone in the TF51 matched pair features true dual-diaphragm design and remote-switchable patterns including Cardioid, Omni, and Figure-8. This flexibility allows you to adapt quickly to different room environments and stereo techniques—whether you're placing the mics wide apart in an A/B configuration or dialing in focused mid-side detail.
