★KSM8 Dualdyne Cardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone The KSM8 Dualdyne cardioid dynamic vocal microphone is the first dual-diaphragm dynamic handheld microphone, a pinnacle of engineering. Featuring Shure's purest single-cardioid polarity, the KSM8 delivers astonishingly faithful vocal reproduction and sound enhancement. Designed for the highest levels of professional use, the patented Dualdyne cartridge virtually eliminates proximity effect and perfectly suppresses off-axis noise, while providing both clear signal and feedback control. - Patented cartridge design featuring two ultra-thin diaphragms (one active and one passive) and an innovative reverse airflow system. - Significantly reduced proximity effect greatly expands the distance at which sound can be picked up without coloration on the axis. - By suppressing the proximity effect, accurate frequency response is achieved, enabling the reproduction of neutral mid-range to high frequencies, resulting in the most natural sound among dynamic microphones. - Because the off-axis attenuation is flat across a wide bandwidth, it excels at removing unwanted sound sources, resulting in improved vocal clarity. - An advanced hollow shock mount design that significantly reduces handling noise without compromising low-frequency response. In addition to a hardened carbon steel grille design with excellent dent resistance, the use of a hydrophobic woven fabric lining provides near-waterproof water resistance while significantly reducing pop noise and wind noise. • Offered as a model equipped with the Shure wireless system, it is compatible with all Shure handheld wireless transmitters with interchangeable heads. ■Specifications: Dynamic Directivity Pattern: NA Minimum playback frequency range: 40 Hz Maximum frequency response: 16 kHz Sensitivity (dBV/Pa): -51.5 dBV/Pa Sensitivity (mV/Pa): 1.85 mV/Pa Mass: 330g
