The M80 Handheld Dynamic Microphone from Telefunken is designed to deliver condenser-like audio for the stage and studio. The M80 features a low mass capsule and thin capsule membrane which deliver a wide frequency response and offer high SPL capability, allowing for use with vocals, instruments, and drums. The microphone's head grill and capsule assembly reduce proximity effect, resulting in low-end clarity for vocals while still providing strength and authority with an open, airy character. A tight cardioid polar pattern and frequency response with a subtle rise in the high end provide the M80 with characteristics suitable for live vocal applications. The package includes a microphone clip, a leather carrying case, and a packing tube.

Telefunken M80 Reviews
exceptional capture of the richness of her voice
Ellie Chaffee is my wife and very frequent gig partner for the past 40+ years. Of all the voices on the planet who perform works from the American Songbook, hers is my favorite-not just because she is my wife. As much as I have enjoyed her singing through a well respected competitor, the M80 delivers more of her richness in overtones and depth. Sorry we did not make this move years ago!
Great Mic!
Very clear sounding Mic! It was so clear that we were able to fine tune the live vocal reverb at band practice. It also has a nice design and a good weight to it. It feels great in the hand. It has a wide spectrum so you do not necessarily have to position it right in front of your mouth for good results. Overall I am very impressed. If you are looking for a live vocal mic upgrade look no further.
