I'm not sure what the difference is between the TLM 170 and the TLM-127.


The capsules are very different.

Neumann says the TLM127 capsule is based on the TLM103 capsule,
which is a variation of the U87a capsule.

The TLM170 capsule is a smaller diameter.
Variants of this capsule are in the U89 and TLM193.
This capsule has a less forward, more neutral sound.

Don't know what the preamp of the TLM127 is but it's probably is not much
different from any of the other TLM's
