Neumann KM 183: Omnidirectional microphones for high-fidelity recording

The Neumann KM 183 is a condenser microphone with a pressure capsule and a frequency-independent omnidirectional polar pattern. This stereo set version includes two matched units for professional recordings in stereo or surround configurations.

Natural and transparent performance

Ideal microphones for acoustic instruments and environmental recordings

Neumann's 180 series is designed for faithful reproduction of the sound event, without alteration. The KM 183 is especially popular in areas such as recording classical piano, percussion, acoustic guitar, strings, woodwinds, choirs and organs. Its linear frequency response and ability to capture every detail make it an excellent choice for those seeking maximum sonic accuracy.

Top-notch Neumann engineering

Despite its competitive price, the KM 183 maintains the Neumann brand's high standard of construction. The transformerless internal amplifier ensures a wide dynamic range (127 dB) and absolute transparency, while the low-impedance output allows the use of cables up to 300 meters long without loss.
