Shure SM12ACN Headworn Cardioid Dynamic Microphone with Earphone

The Shure SM12ACN offers the same features and performance as the SM10A, but with one in-the-ear monitor. It is a favorite of singing drummers and keyboardists who need freedom of movement on stage. A close-talking dynamic microphone element on an adjustable boom provides excellent isolation and minimizes feedback problems.

The Shure SM10A and SM12ACN microphones are low-impedance, unidirectional dynamic microphones designed for close-talk head-worn applications such as remote-site sports broadcasting and corporate intercom systems. They are also ideal for singing drummers, keyboard artists, and other performers who need a head-worn vocal microphone with superior noise rejection and a smooth, natural-sounding frequency response.

The SM12ACN is very lightweight and is typically mounted on the supplied steel headband assembly. An adjustable pivot on the headband assembly allows the microphone boom to be moved 20 degrees in any direction. The boom also slides out so the microphone can be positioned up to 89mm (3-1/2 in.) from the pivot housing. A supplied windscreen reduces wind noise and explosive breath sounds. A belt clip that fits over the XLR connector and attaches to the user's belt or waistband provides cable strain relief.
