Description

Size:¼" Phone Plug The cardioid (unidirectional) pickup pattern provides greater gain-before-feedback and isolation from ambient noise and other unwanted sound sources. A carefully shaped frequency response includes a voice-frequency presence peak and a low-frequency roll-off to compensate for the proximity effect inherent in cardioid mics during close-talk operation.

  • I take issue with...
Size: 3-pin Male XLR
I have serious issues with reviewers who assume because a product is not right for them that it is not right for anyone. I play drums in a classic rock band and Cajon and percussion in a small trio. I also set up and run both outfits PA system. I was tired of being anchored to a mic and boom in both situations and decided to go with the Shure WH20XLR. First of all the attached wire is not designed to plug directly into a mixer or amp. It is made to be routed and clipped to a belt or pocket where a standard XLR cable is attached. The flexible wire on the mic is not made to run to the mixer. I run the wire inside my shirt, loop it around a belt loop and plug in the mixer cable. Problem solved. I installed an XLR plug with built in rotary on/off switch on my mic cable to mute the mic. This is a dynamic mic! No phantom power or battery. It is a full size XLR connector. The are other versions of this for wireless and computer use ( the last 3 letters in the model designate which is which.) when plugged into a mixer or PA the sound level is more than sufficient. I don't know about a low to high impedance adapter into a guitar amp or other Hi Z inputs. It works great into our Behringer mixer. Just bump the gain a little. I have used an SM58 and SM57 for years and can state that this mic with just a small cut in mid and a small boost in low rocks. Every bit as clean as the SMs and no hassling with stands and booms. I've used it for numerous shows and it was a bit uncomfortable at first but once fitted properly it disappears. This mic is about $10 cheaper than an SM58 no switch version, so it's not a lot cheaper, just different tech. I love it, both bands love it and the audience loves it. I wouldn't record with it, but I probably would use a condenser on a stand or boom for vocals anyway. I hate to see good products trashed because folks don't read the descriptions or do any research. It may not be for everyone, that's why there are choices. And the reviews that make it clear that the reviewer has no idea what they are doing are the worst. Used as designed this is an excellent choice for a musician looking to get out from behind a mic stand or a drummer or KB player who wants to ditch the mic stand. I don't need wireless so this wired version is perfect. My SMs and mic stands stay at home. Any piece of gear can be defective or fail during use. That doesn't make it junk. Just electronics. It is astonishing how some folks love and use the mic with no issues and others can't get it to work or sound good. I prefer Zildjian cymbals to Sabian or Paiste but I don't trash those quality products. I do the companies a favor and don't buy them. I'd highly recommend this mic. It's worked perfectly for me. ... show more

  • Great alternative to a wireless headset
Size: 3-pin Male XLR
I thought I'd try this wired mic from Shure. What a great decision! It's relatively inexpensive, hardy, no batteries a wireless mic requires, no moving parts, no issues! The sound quality is really really good also, and the windscreen ALMOST eliminates all noise. Others have complained about it not fitting on their head. It's fine for me. Also noise from the wire flapping around, but it comes with a clip for your shirt. I bought a 6 foot XLR cable to go with this as the headset is only 4 feet or so. If you don't need total freedom to move around on stage or otherwise, this could be your answer. I bought this XLR cable from Amazon, which I also like.

  • Drummers! This is the one!
Size: 3-pin Male XLR
Best product I've purchased in a looooong time. I read all the reviews (especially from drummers) and they are spot on. I just used this a couple times over the weekend and it is absolutely fantastic. No feedback issues like other products speak of. Fits good on my medium sized mellon (my head). I actually wear in ear monitors along with this mic and everything is rock solid. And no, I don't have Dumbo ears to keep it all in place thank you very much. I'm looking forward to becoming a duel threat drummer now that I have back up vocal capabilities. Nice work Shure!!! ... show more

  • Just disappointing.
Size: 3-pin Male XLR
I was trying this out as a daily mic solution paired with my mbox which have pretty nice internal preamps. The sound I get out of this that falls flat. I expected it to have limitations but the signal has always been week enough that I have to crank it to 11 just so my friends can hear me on discord. Records in Audacity come back grainy and very low/unstable signal. I'm also not a super fan of the metal band that rests it on your head. You can shape it a bit but if it's slightly too wide or to tight you get slip-offs and headaches respectively, and it doesn't seem to want to keep shape so you're constantly screwing with it. The band they send to try to cable manage is bad, and don't get me started on the mic section itself. Whatever the little boxy locking device/clip thing they thought would be good to secure the mic itself is a total failure. It just constantly fails to hold a locked position, as does the mic/line itself. The mic line is also too long. Floppy is the word. I've tried to suffer it for a year because of the cost but I just can't anymore. If you're a daily user, this device will fight you in both recording quality and stability. ... show more

  • PA GUYS THIS IS YOUR NEXT MIC!
Size: 3-pin Male XLR
I'm the PA guy locally for football, basketball and track. I have been wanting a headset mic for years now to clear out that room on the desk while doing games. A table top mic is right in the middle of everything and a wireless hand held mic is always on. I bought this mic and paired it with a Shure push to talk button. It works fantastically giving me instant on and off plus my desk area is free of the table mic. I also used it for State Championship football and the University of Missouri and the sound personnel there assured me this is a professional quality mic. It is a 3 pin setup and the sound quality is crisp and clear. All you PA guys out there looking for a great tool to add to your bag get this and the Shure A120S switch and you are going to be a happy camper. ... show more
