## Overview

The Shure SM86 is a professional-grade cardioid condenser vocal microphone designed for live performances. It features a built-in 3-point shock mount and a 2-stage pop filter to minimize handling and wind noise, ensuring clear vocal reproduction. With a tailored frequency response and rugged construction, this microphone is perfect for touring musicians and sound engineers alike.

## Description

The Shure SM86 is a unidirectional (cardioid) condenser vocal microphone for professional use in live performance. An extremely rugged microphone, the SM86 withstands the rigors of touring while delivering a clear, studio-quality sound. A cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source while minimizing unwanted background noise. The built-in three-point shock mount minimizes handling noise, and a two-stage pop filter reduces wind and breath "pop" noise. PHANTOM POWER NOTE: The SM86 requires phantom power. This may be supplied to the microphone from an external power supply (such as the Shure model PS1A) or directly from preamplifiers, mixers, or consoles with built-in phantom power. Suitable sources should provide 11 to 52 Vdc phantom voltage. IMPENDANCE NOTE: A load impedance of at least 600 Ohms is recommended. The load may be as low as 150 Ohms, but a reduction in output level and output clipping level will result.

Review: Like a Beta 87A, But Better - This handheld mic is similar in performance to the Beta 87 with the feeling of auto-compression as you sing, but if you’ve got any power to your voice, the 87 exhibits a “sizzle” in the upper mids that I find unpleasant. There’s no such overload using the SM86, and more, when you ease off the mic, there’s a nice bloom of openness. The detail and interest in midrange is breathtaking for this being a handheld. A friend recommended this mic, who himself became a fan after meeting the vocalist of NeedToBreathe, who was singing through an SM86 at the time. I formerly have been singing into a Sennheiser e935, which is also a great mic. The 935 is similar to the Beta 58, but can be gained higher before overload and this dynamic mic is still useful to me in a band setting on a small stage. When I have a larger stage or perform solo, the SM86 is my mic of choice. If you’re the kind of vocalist that sings with a lot of dynamic and who’s not crammed into a small space with drums or horns, this is the sleeper mic you’ve been looking for.
Review: You need a mixer for this or phantom power - This is the microphone I wanted, but I had to order Phantom power in the form of a mixer. I can’t wait till the mixer arrives so I could use the mic.
