(More customer reviews)This is a really nice mic to use. It is very rugged and can take a lot of abuse, while still sounding good. The double wind screen makes it hard to pop, and it can withstand very high levels of sound. It is supercardiod, so it only pics up sound in a small area, so if you are using many of these mics at the same time, they do not interact with each other. It is a great mic to use for a quiet interview between two people, or a screaming vocalist on stage, standing near a very loud monitor. Also, since it is a condenser mic, you always have plenty of gain, if you need it.

Designed for use in sound reinforcement, broadcasting, and studio recording installations, the Shure SM87A professional-quality, handheld condenser microphone is ideal for miking individual instruments in a multi-microphone setting or for miking single sources in a reverberant or noisy environment. Its supercardioid polar pattern provides greater rejection of unwanted sound sources, and an integral three-stage wind and pop filter protects against wind and breath noise. Its built-in shock mount reduces stand and handling noise.
