Review: Perfect podium mic speaking events and poetry readings. Good tone and flexibility! - 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!
Review: Good quality gooseneck microphone - This was purchased to replace another gooseneck microphone for a church. The sound quality and sensitivity of this microphone (cardioid) is noticeably better than the old microphone (super cardioid), particularly when the speaker was positioned off-axis of the cardioid pattern. 5 stars. Update: After 1 month use this microphone developed a constant high-pitched tone when used. No other changes were made to the audio system in the 1-month period, and the microphone was not abused or damaged in use. The high-pitched tone in the audio system stopped when this microphone was replaced. A warranty claim is being submitted to Shure, as the the failure occurred shortly after the desertcart 30-day return period. The rating is being downgraded to 1 star due to poor durability.

## Questions & Answers

A: I believe it can fit into a regular floor mounted microphone stand.
