  • Perfect podium mic speaking events and poetry readings. Good tone and flexibility!
Size: 18" Gooseneck Style: Cardioid Pattern Name: Standard
I run sound for a poetry and music open mic locally. I have a good array of vocal microphones for singers, but I really needed a dedicated speaking microphone that I can put on the podium for poetry readers. This mic is perfect for that application. The gooseneck is easy to adjust, so my speakers can position it comfortably for their needs. It does a nice job of rejecting feedback, and produces great clear sound with a minimum of EQ adjustments. My guests really like it because it is unobtrusive and low pro profile, which is great when they take photos or videos. It is worth investing in the mic stand too - overall, a terrific mic, very practical! ... show more

  • Standard podium mic.
Size: 18" Gooseneck Style: Cardioid Pattern Name: Standard
Works for people that tend to not talk near or directly at the mic. It sounds good if you have a tuned system. Very easy to position.

  • quality mic at an affordable price
Size: 18" Gooseneck Style: Cardioid Pattern Name: Standard
This is the second mic of this model we have purchased and placed in our church. They are great for the podium. It comes with various mounting options. Be aware that this will require a phantom power supply if your mixer amp does not have that feature built in. That is a minimal cost, along with a second patch cord that will also be required. The first mic has been in place about 8 years and has performed flawlessly. When looking for a second mic I was very happy to see they still have this model available. ... show more

  • It only bends at one end and was too long - but it's a good mike
Size: 15" Gooseneck Style: Cardioid Pattern Name: Standard
It was really easy to replace an old microphone and set this up on a wireless base. Too bad it was too long for our use and only bent at one end. The base is on a rather small lectern so the wireless base had to be almost vertical stuck on with Velcro and it was impossible to bend to get it in the right place. ... show more

  • A Shure Microphone
Size: 12" Gooseneck Style: Cardioid Pattern Name: Standard
Replaced our old gooseneck mic in our Church. Works great! You can't beat Shure quality. A tip, make sure your Amp has a phantom power supply to run this condenser type mic.

  • Clear, Intelligible Spoken Word from a Church Pulpit? Yes, It Is Possible!
Size: 18" Gooseneck Style: Cardioid Pattern Name: Standard
Outstanding quality microphone for the pulpit and altar of our church. The microphone length is the right length for taller people, yet works just fine for shorter people, as well. As is typical with Shure gooseneck mics, the top and bottom portions of the gooseneck are flexible, while the middle is rigid. Highly recommended for house of worship applications. ... show more
