Shure MX202WP-A/C Overhead Cardioid Microphone, White

The MX202WP-A/C white Microflex overhead cardioid condenser microphone from Shure combines a wide frequency response and dynamic range resulting in an extremely accurate reproduction of the source being mic'd. The compact size of the MX202 means you'll get the high-quality sound you expect from Shure without cluttering the stage, and the flexible 4-inch gooseneck with 30-foot cable ensures ease of placement. Additionally, engineers will appreciate the balanced transformerless output as it provides for enhanced noise rejection over long cable runs, which is especially important in a typical stage environment.

The MX202WP-A/C comes with a plate mounted preamp and a cardioid cartridge.
