Shure PGA48 Dynamic Microphone - Handheld Mic for Vocals with Cardioid Pick-up Pattern, Discrete On/Off Switch, 3-pin XLR Connector, Stand Adapter and Zipper Pouch, No Cable (PGA48-LC)

Let me start by saying - This mic is amazing! I've been looking around for a good but inexpensive mic for a while now and this is what I decided on. Pros: Great audio quality On/off switch Includes XLR cable Includes mic holder Price Sounds like an Sm58 Cons: It's a bit noisy when hold it your hand, but if you use a mic stand it's great. Doesn't come with dragon If you are planning to use this with a guitar amp you will need an impedance transformer. This basically allows your low impedance device (Microphone) to be able to be plugged into your high impedance input (Amp). I've linked a great one here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006NMUHW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The XLR-QTR cable will not give you the same great results as this will. You will need to select the XLR-XLR cable to be able to use this transformer. You won't regret buying this microphone! I did not receive either of these products for free or at a discount. Update: Two years later and I have developed as a musician. I can now tell that this does NOT sounds as good as the more expensive SM58. However, I still like to have this microphone around because it’s a good backup, but you can also give it to the little ones to keep their hands off of your more expensive gear. If you just need to use a microphone a few times for something like a karaoke party, this mic will work well; if you’re a musician, I’d go with the industry standard SM58, or possibly it’s younger brother the SM48(though i’ve never actually held this mic in my hand; make your own informed decision).

This mic is a great value! Compared to other value-priced vocal mics, sound quality is good, perfect price, 15’long cord included. Very happy with this purchase.

Very good solid Microphone. works great as expected. I purchased the PGA48 without the cord. I think it was available with a 15 foot cord. I purchased the 25 food cords. IF this microphone works as good as it looks it should last for many years. But only time will tell. As for now it working. I bought the Shure brand Microphone because 20 years ago they were what everyone used.

This mic is a terrific value! Compared to other value-priced vocal mics I’ve owned or tried, this one is hands down the best. As a karaoke jockey, I never put expensive mics in singers’ hands. After going through several non-Shure cheap mics, I bought this Shure PGA48. Now I own 5 of them. They’re the only mics I use for karaoke gigs. Sound quality is surprisingly crisp, with good highs and lows. The mic performs very well when effects are adjusted on my mixing board. (I try to give every singer their best shot at sounding good, whether or not they are a good singer.) The only downside I can find (and it’s really a non-issue for my purposes), is that there can be a little handling noise. However, this is greatly reduced with the use of high quality, shielded microphone cords. At my events, I leave all the mics for singers on stands and ask folks to not remove them. If someone does get feisty and takes a mic in their hand, it’s fine, though, because my cords are good. Besides, any handling noise is completely covered up once I crank up the song. I’d just suggest that if you purchase this mic, you also purchase a high quality microphone cord. If you do that, you really shouldn’t have any problems. And you’ll be very glad to have an inexpensive vocal mic that has such a great sound!

I bought this specifically to use at home for my karaoke setup. It's a little setup that has brought us much fun since we started using it about 1.5 years ago. The karaoke setup has gotten more use due the pandemic, we still wanted to karaoke and the only place to do it was at home. I was using my computer mic (a Blue Yeti condenser mic) and sending the audio straight to a speaker just for the vocals (a Bose Rockin Roller Mini). It worked but I always had to worry about feedback, and it was still better than nothing. I decided I wanted to add some reverb to the karaoke nights and bought a tiny mixer (Behringer Xenyx 1202FX) and this microphone. There are some reviews that say there is noticeable handling noise, there is, I noticed it immediately upon testing. The other thing I noticed was that I was still getting feedback, the speaker I use does face directly to the singer, the mic, and its only placed about 5 feet away from the singer, so it wasn't a surprise to hear the feedback. After changing the settings on my mixer and lowering the mid adjustment knob, I was able to get the mic working with no noticeable feedback, effects, and good volume, minimal change on the handling noise. The handling noise goes unnoticed once the music starts and there is active singing. For my first cardioid mic for my home karaoke, I am completely satisfied with this purchase. I would recommend to others for home karaoke use, I would not recommend for professional use or even just speaking, with no background noise the handling noise is going to be noticeable. Would I buy again? Maybe, this thing is great for an introductory mic but I think I will spend a bit more next time and get the Shure SM58 to use as the main and downgrade this one to the backup singers mic. Maybe I'll change my mind after using this a few more times. If you are looking for a good budget friendly microphone for fun at home karaoke nights then I would highly recommend this. I would not recommend this for professional use or for those of you planning to use it for speaking only, the handling noise is too noticeable.

Hollywood DJ provided an Excellent service and a Great Product!

Really really good microphone, love it. Get one you won't be disappointed. Easy to use, very clear sound, no noice comes through, the cord is long enough.

ワイヤレスマイクが前提の大きな会場の音響システムですが，常設のチューナーは4本です。マイク自体も高額で増設が難しいですが，有線マイクはプラグにゆとりがあり，さらにマイク・増設にかかる費用も低く抑えられます。SHUREのダイナミックマイクの中では安価なモデルですが音の再現が自然で安定しています。集会の演説，ボーカル，楽器の音(管・弦・打楽器)などどんな使い方でもそのままの再現性があります。アンプとスピーカーはRAMZAです。

Instead of buying stupid microphone like blue snowball ice and other stuff that creates latency and can never be resolved, this mic can be brought. If u are looking for mic that record just your voice even in a noisy environment and has no latency when sing please buy this... And remember a soundcard like behringer is required to use this which costs additional 4k but its worth buying. Good mic but still condencer mic can be a better option when they are available for 1000k. Because this mic has bassy sound and dose not provide any additional crisp ness if u r a singer plz buy power Pak or wright mics I have used personally.

It’s a great microphone for podcasting and radio work! Crisp sound. The package came with the instructions, a travel bag for the microphone, and an aux cord. It even comes with a small piece of accessory to add to a microphone stand. It was well packaged and work perfectly when I tested it. Good price and a solid brand.

Great buy and sounds excellent. I hope I can make a good song to become famous with it! I use it endlessly and it never fails.
