SPOTLIGHT REVIEW
Sound: I've used this Mic for almost ten years and it's my favorite. The sound is great considering the size of the diaphragm, it responds like an SM58 for vocals but without the stand :) but an SM58 has a Diaphragm double the size(diameter)because of that you get much less feedback too when close to speakers and monitors, a real classic from shure. I've tried the wireless version too but this one is the most professional and flexible headset mic I ever seen. The Wireless is fine for Aerobics and Dance instructors, if you plan to go live, or record, get this one. Quality: Very rugged construction, after ten years still perfect, the protective hard case works great. Value: Good price for the benefit. Same price of a SM58 or 57 plus the stand and the cable (and the hassle) Manufacturer Support: Never had to call them. Overall: I've tried the wireless version too but this one is the most professional and flexible headset mic I ever seen. The Wireless is fine for Aerobics and Dance instructors, if you plan to go live, or record, get this one.

Sound: I just used this product recently & was very impressed with the sound. I normally use a vocal condenser microphone & am used to the response of that. But for this being a dynamic microphone, it had a very natural sound. I enjoyed using it so much that I'm in the proccess of purchasing one! Feature: The very fact that I didn't need to use a microphone stand while playing drums was so nice. I didn't have to play my fills around a boom stand extension. Ease of Use: Place on head, plug in, and make noise! Quality: Typical Shure quality. Good stuff! Value: Excellent value! Manufacturer Support: I've used Shure products for more than 20 years. I've rarely had to get support for their gear, but when I've needed their support, they were great. (Plus, it doesn't hurt that I live 20 minutes away from the Shure factory!) The Wow Factor: I want it more out of need. This is, for me, the better product for the price. Overall: I expect to use this product until it is either lost/stolen or there are no more serviceable parts.

Overall: I have used this Mic for the past three years as a Public Address Announcer for colligate basketball and for high school football. This mic provides the comfort to wear during double headers and for those day long tournaments. The sound quality is the best I have used in my 20+ years of announcing. Would recommend. This does not come with an on/off switch so must be used with a XLR on/off switch.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

3. You'll get your gear fast

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

In fact, zZounds offers free two-day delivery on many of our best-selling products!

You have 30 days to try your gear at home, in your practice space or studio. If you're not absolutely in love with the sound you're getting, just let us know. We'll promptly arrange for an exchange or a refund without the hassles or hidden charges you face with some of our competitors. If there's something wrong with the gear you bought from us, we'll email you an electronic return label so you can return it easily and free of charge.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
