The Shure Models 515SBGX, 515SBG-18X , and 515SBG-18XF microphones are low-impedance, dynamic microphones designed to be mounted on flexible goosenecks or fixed pipes. Optimised frequency response and a unidirectional (cardioid) pickup pattern makes them ideal for language labs, paging applications, and base station communications. They are also recommended for use as talkback or cuing microphones in TV, film, and recording studios. Because of their low impedance, these microphones retain their level and response characteristics even when long lengths of cable are used. All three models are supplied with a push-to-talk button and a four-conductor cable (two conductors shielded).
The new version of the 515 Series, the 515X Series provides overall improved performance and 6dB more output, and is ideal for a variety of sound reinforcement uses.
