Shure SM81 Small-diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The Shure SM81 Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone is a precision-engineered studio and live performance mic, designed for instrument recording with exceptional clarity and detail. Its flat frequency response and wide range (20Hz–20kHz) ensure accurate, natural sound reproduction, making it a top choice for acoustic guitars, pianos, hi-hats, cymbals, and orchestral instruments. The cardioid polar pattern provides excellent off-axis rejection, minimizing background noise and feedback. A three-position low-frequency roll-off switch allows for tailored bass response, while the low self-noise and high SPL handling make it ideal for dynamic performances. Built with rugged durability, the SM81 is a trusted choice for professional studios, concert halls, and touring musicians.
