Vintage look and feel . . . state-of-the-art sound.

An unmistakable stage icon for 70 years, the Shure 55SH Series II Unidyne Vocal Microphone features a signature satin chrome-plated die-cast casing for pure vintage look and feel with modern acoustic components to meet today's performance standards. This microphone is excellent for vocal pickup with its characteristic Shure presence peak.The 55SH Series II microphone has a cardioid (unidirectional) polar pickup pattern that minimizes sound pickup from the rear of the microphone. This allows the Model 55SH Series II to be used in close proximity to loudspeakers without creating feedback problems, and it can perform under adverse acoustic conditions where omnidirectional microphones cannot.The 55SH Series II has a low-impedance balanced output designed for connection to microphone inputs rated at 75 to 300 ohms. The microphone features a cartridge shockmount to reduce stand noise, an On/Off switch, and an attached, self-tensioning, 5/8"-27 thread swivel mount. This microphone is ideal for public address or theater-stage sound systems, as well as for broadcasting, recording, and other sound applications where a stand-mounted microphone with a classic look is desirable.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

  • most kick a** mic ever

    As reviewed by Rise of shadows Lead vocalist on 4/30/2007

    The Shure 55SH seiries II Mic is a god like mic thats sweet sound blesses those who care to listen. I own this mic and it is durable (you can wack it over someones head and it will remain intackt and perfect for use), the shape of it is a comfortable hold. with the interior it plocks those "s" sounds that are so anoying yet still dont muffle the voice. It is a mic that the whole family can enjoy, the classic look with the modernday sound. IT is perfect for both sweet melodic sound voice and death metal scream. thus forth i declare this the most kick a** mic eva.

  • The Elvis Mic that I like!

    As reviewed by Hound Dog on 10/6/2006

    This mic caught my eye immediately when I saw it because of it's long history of being in the professional sound scene. Just like the one Elvis used, only this one is revamped with modern technology and sounds much more powerful! It is not made to get too close, or you will get much "boom" or "pop" when popping your P's. Just stay back about two inches and let this powerhouse do all the work! Mic housing is superbly made to last a very long time. An excellent choice!

  • Cool, Good Sound

    As reviewed by kray on 9/28/2006

    OK I bought this mic because of the look. I love it. However one of my boom mic stands has a connection point that interferes with the xlr connection on the mic. When I first used it I wanted to get close to the mic like I'd seen other performers, but this mic pops really bad. If you are too close all of your Ps and Ss will sound bad. If you stand back from it, it sounds great. The mic feels very secure as it is made out of heavy metal. Over all it?s a cool mic with a price reasonable.
