The Shure KSM137 is an end-address condenser microphone with a cardioid polar pattern. Designed for studio use, yet rugged enough for live applications, the KSM137 can withstand extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL). Its low self-noise and extended frequency response make it ideal for recording musical instruments. Comes with windscreen and carrying bag. Champagne finish. Features A highly consistent cardioid polar pattern Ultra-thin, 2.5 micron, 24 karat gold-layered, low mass Mylar diaphragm for superior transient response Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier for transparency, extremely fast transient response, no crossover distortion, and minimal harmonic and intermodulation distortion Premium electronic components, including gold-plated internal and external connectors Subsonic filter eliminates low frequency rumble (less than 17 Hz) caused by mechanical vibration Switchable 15 dB pad for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPLs) Three-position switchable pad (0 dB, 15 dB, and 25 dB) for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPLs) Three-position switchable low-frequency filter reduces background noise and counteracts proximity effect Performance Characteristics Extended frequency response Low self noise Exceptional reproduction of low-frequency sounds Can withstand high sound pressure levels (SPL) High output level No crossover distortion Uniform polar response Superior…
