SCHOEPS TEF

Product overview

The SCHOEPS TEF is a tabletop mounting adapter for building table stands elastically into a table, available in three degrees of hardness.

It takes a diameter of 20 mm, either the ST 20-3/8 cylinder or a CMC microphone amplifier. An elastically mounted table stand places high demands on its suspension: it must be firm enough to keep the microphone stable and soft enough that vibrations from the table are not picked up as broadband interference. The three TEF versions are matched to the weight and length of the stand, so the microphone is optimally decoupled from structure-borne noise and stays stable at the same time.

Workflow 1: Gooseneck built into a conference table

Installers fitting table microphones into furniture.

Connections

Setup

1. Fit the TEF into the table opening and fix it.
2. Insert the ST 20-3/8 cylinder with the TM S 250 stand.
3. Mount the capsule or CCM microphone and connect the cable below the table.

Tip: For a 250 mm stand use the TEF-S; with a B 1 D or B 5 D pop screen, use the TEF-M.

Workflow 2: Long table stand on a heavy table position

Installers using 420 mm table stands.

Connections

Setup

1. Choose the hard TEF-H for the 420 mm stand.
2. Mount the TEF-H in the table.
3. Insert the stand and align the microphone.

Tip: The harder version keeps a long stand stable while it stays decoupled from the table.
