The Shure SM86 is a unidirectional (cardioid) condenser vocal microphone for professional use in live performance. An extremely rugged microphone, the SM86 withstands the rigors of touring while delivering studio-quality sound. The tailored frequency response of the SM86 reproduces vocals with clarity. A cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source while minimizing unwanted background noise. The built-in three-point shock mount minimizes handling noise, and a two-stage pop filter reduces wind and breath ""pop"" noise. The SM86 is an excellent selection for use with both stage monitors and personal in-ear monitors.FEATURES:[ condensator cartridge for studio quality sound[ tailored frequency response for a clear reproduction of vocals[ rugged construction withstands the rigors of touring sound[ cardioid polar pattern minimizes unwanted background noise[ excellent choice of stage monitors and personal in-ear monitors[ built-in three-point shock mount minimizes handling noise[ two-stage ""pop"" filter reduces wind and breath noise[ frequency range: 50Hz - 18kHz ";
