Telefunken TF39 Three-Pattern Large Diaphragm Microphone System

The TF39 Copperhead Deluxe from TELEFUNKEN is an expansion of the “Copperhead” sound with the addition of a dual membrane K67-style capsule, allowing for 3-pattern selection between cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8. This added feature set gives the TF39 greater flexibility and options in the studio.

The circuit design of the TF39 features a new old stock American-made 5654W vacuum tube, all-brass K67-style capsule, and a premium Swedish-made Lundahl output transformer. These components create a balanced frequency response and natural tonality, making the TF39 a trusty go-to choice.

As part of TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik’s Alchemy Series, this next generation of large diaphragm tube condensers was designed, hand-built, and tested to strict quality standards in Connecticut, USA. The bold new voicings of the Alchemy Series feature unique sonic profiles developed from the ground up.
