Neumann KM183MT STEREO

The Neumann KM 183 MT Stereo Set is a premium matched pair of omnidirectional small-diaphragm condenser microphones designed for professional stereo recording applications. Featuring transformerless circuitry, exceptional transparency, and a diffuse-field optimized frequency response, the KM 183 microphones deliver natural, detailed sound reproduction for orchestras, choirs, acoustic instruments, piano recordings, and ambient room capture. Finished in elegant matte black, this stereo set provides outstanding sonic accuracy and reliability for studio, broadcast, and live recording environments.

The Neumann KM 183 MT Stereo Set combines two high-performance KM 183 omnidirectional condenser microphones in a matched stereo configuration, offering exceptional precision and consistency for professional stereo recording. Based on the highly acclaimed KM 184 platform, the KM 183 utilizes a pressure transducer design with an omnidirectional polar pattern and a carefully engineered frequency response that remains flat in diffuse sound fields while providing a gentle high-frequency presence boost in free-field applications.

Its slim and compact design makes it ideal for a wide variety of recording situations, including AB stereo techniques, orchestral recordings, choir capture, piano recording, organ performances, and acoustic instrument applications. The transformerless output circuitry, inherited from Neumann’s renowned KM 100 microphone system, ensures excellent transient response, low distortion, and outstanding signal integrity.

The KM 183 operates on standard 48 V phantom power and maintains excellent performance even when connected to unbalanced recording devices such as portable flash recorders and field recording systems. As a stereo set, both microphones are carefully selected to ensure consistent performance and accurate stereo imaging.

Finished in matte black, the KM 183 MT Stereo Set delivers the legendary Neumann sound quality in a compact, reliable, and versatile package suitable for demanding studio, broadcast, and location recording applications.
