4 Neumann Mics: A Practical Comparison & Review for Voiceover -- U87ai, TLM 193, TLM 103, TLM 102

Written By Jay Myers

A blind comparison between four of the most popular Neumann microphones for VoiceOver, the U87ai, the TLM 103, the TLM 102, and the oft-overlooked TLM 193. Spurred on by many people recommending I "check out the TLM 193," I decided to give it a shot. Here we'll discuss the pros and cons of many of these mics and some of the revelations that came from the opportunity to put them all head to head.

For more specific details and my thoughts/experiences/opinions on the U87ai, the TLM 103, and the TLM 102 for VoiceOver and audiobook narration, check out the first comparison between them here: https://youtu.be/Tid0P7AgwGU
