Its totally fine that people disagree with me. My comments are based on the fact that everytime I am put a TLM 103 on a sound source I have been underwhelmed and almost every time I have put up a 4060 I have been pretty blown away (I use all the big name mics on a regular basis). I did one record in Asia where I used the 4060 on almost every non amplified sound source (ecxept drum overheads) that was nominated for a Malasian Grammy for best engineering.This included recording everything from vox and guitars to chinese classical instruments and malaysian folk instruments.
My best friend that records orchestras for movies had the exact same reaction as me about the 103 and the 4060. I would be interested to hear from more folks on this board, but I have not met any engineers that are doing serious proffesional work that have found the TLM103 to be a great mic.
I never said I could not get great recordings out of a TLM103, but as a guy that has probably used over a hundred different kinds of mics, I have never found the 103 to be a great mic. Of course every sound source has a differnt relationship with different mics, but everytime I have done a mic shoot out . I would take the 103 over any mic I have ever used by Studio Projects or CAD or Rode. If the 103 works for some one that is all that matters.
