Shure PGA48 Vocal Cardioid Dynamic Microphone

The PGA48 Vocal Cardioid Dynamic Microphone from Shure is a sturdy, plug-and-play mic that delivers excellent sound, making it a great vocal or karaoke mic. Its industrial design boasts a black metallic finish and a classic silver ball grille, allowing it to visually blend into any environment. Its tailored cartridge is precision-engineered to deliver clarity throughout the standard frequency range of vocals, while its cardioid polar pattern efficiently “aims” at the desired sound source while minimizing the pickup of unwanted noise from the back and sides, resulting in higher gain-before-feedback when using a stage monitor.

The PGA48 comes with a stand adapter for attaching to a microphone stand. Also included in the box is a zippered pouch for safe transport and secure storage. This mic is available with various cable options and a discrete On / Off switch.
