Description
The Telefunken TF17 is a phantom-powered large-diaphragm FET condenser microphone with a fixed cardioid pattern and K47-style capsule. It features extended low-frequency response, pronounced midrange, and a natural top end, alongside high SPL handling and low self-noise characteristics. The microphone uses a proprietary FET amplifier circuit paired with a UK-made output transformer and premium components including polystyrene capacitors and a low-noise JFET. Verify phantom power availability, cabling compatibility, and mounting needs before purchase.
