Hallo,
verkaufe hier ein kaum genutztes Neumann U87 Ai Studio Set in der Farbe Nickel.
Es ist in sehr gutem Zustand, ich bleibe lieber beim TLM103.
OVP gibts dazu, Rechnung gibts nicht mehr.
Rechtliches: Privatverkauf, daher Verkauf unter Ausschluss jeglicher Gewährleistung. Der Artikel wird wie gesehen verkauft. Keine Garantie, keine Rücknahme, kein Umtausch. Versand auf Risiko des Käufers.
Because this is a current-production U87 Ai rather than a legacy bargain hunt, timing matters mainly in the sense that you’re buying a well-established modern standard, not chasing scarcity or a discontinued “must-have” generation. Against your own benchmark, €2,500 is clearly ambitious: it sits well above the 75th percentile of €1,426, roughly 2.8× the median €894, so it is not a fair-market ask for a typical used example.
That said, the capsule/platform is still one of the safest vocal mics to own if you need the Neumann polished top end, solid midrange presence, and proven studio compatibility. An excellent condition listing can still make sense if it includes the full set, original shockmount, and case, and if the seller can show low use and clean provenance. The upside here is reliability and long-term resale, but at this price I’d want extra proof that it’s genuinely pristine and complete.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Neumann traces its origins to Berlin, Germany, where Georg Neumann and Erich Rickmann founded the company in 1928. Initially focused on pioneering condenser microphones, such as the groundbreaking CMV 3—nicknamed "The Bottle"—Neumann quickly established itself as an innovator amid the early days of professional audio. Despite wartime disruptions that split production and led to the creation of Microtech Gefell, Georg Neumann rebuilt in post-war Berlin, launching the iconic U 47 tube-condenser microphone, which solidified the brand's legacy in recording history.
The brand specializes in professional recording equipment, renowned for its high-end condenser microphones like the U 47, U 67, and U 87, which dominate studios worldwide. Beyond mics, Neumann produces studio monitors, headphones, preamplifiers, audio interfaces such as the recent MT 48, and historically excelled in cutting lathes for mastering. This pro-audio emphasis sets it apart from consumer hi-fi categories like amplifiers, turntables, or cables.
Neumann commands an elite position in the market as the gold standard for professional recording, embodying precision engineering and unmatched fidelity prized by engineers and producers. Its products grace legendary sessions, blending vintage reverence with modern reliability, making it essential for discerning hi-fi enthusiasts seeking studio-grade accuracy rather than mid-tier or boutique consumer gear.
