SM86 Vocal Microphone


Product Code:
SM86

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.

SM86-LC: Cable not included.
 

Features
  • Condenser cartridge for studio quality sound

  • Built-in three-point shock mount minimizes handling noise

  • Two-stage "pop" filter reduces wind and breath noise


Specifications
  • Transducer Type: Condenser (electret bias)

  • Polar Pattern :Cardioid

  • Output Impedance :150 ohms at 1 kHz, Recommended minimum load impedance: 600 Ohms

  • Sensitivity (at 1,000 Hz) Open Circuit Voltage -50 dBV/Pa (3.15mV) 1 pa = 94 dB SPL

  • Output Clipping level :1000 Ohm Load at 1,000 Hz: +3 dBV (1.41 V)

  • Maximum SPL (at 1,000 Hz)  :1000 ohm load (1% THD): 147 dB

  • Self- Noise : 23 dB typical, A-weighted
