With the WL185M, you’re setting yourself up for sonic success. This lavalier microphone delivers professional sound in a more compact chassis than ever. Measured against the standard WL185, this microphone’s body is eight millimeters shorter, which helps it blend in and disappear onstage and on camera. Shure tells us that the WL185M includes other improvements: greater SPL handling, lower self-noise, and upgraded sound quality. Meanwhile, the cardioid polar pattern focuses on the wearer’s voice and prevents off-axis noise from entering the signal. Finally, the WL185M’s redesigned tie clip offers a rotatable design for improved positioning. Tailor-made for presenters, the Shure WL185M lavalier microphone captures natural, lifelike tones every time.
The sound you know without the dropouts
Shure has been at the forefront of the wireless movement for more than three decades. Over the years, Shure has learned a thing or two about providing a reliable signal and is pleased to report that SLX-D experiences fewer dropouts than ever before. Here, we chalk the impressive performance up to the sheer transmission strength and the natural resistance to RF interference. One thing’s for sure — you can trust SLX-D to deliver a clear and rock-solid signal night after night.
Get heard loud and clear
One of the chief advantages of using the SLX-D series is the immense dynamic range. Since Shure SLX-D systems transmit digitally, you can use its entire dynamic range without worrying about the effects of companding and compression. And thanks to its 120-decibel dynamic range, your system can handle whisper-quiet performers and rock bands alike. No matter what performers are onstage, SLX-D ensures they’re heard loud and clear.
Ready to go the distance
Shure’s versatile and expandable SLX-D systems fit the needs of any venue. Single- and dual-channel receivers and vocal, guitar, headset, and lavalier options let you choose the setup that’s right for you. Once you get everything you need, setup is a breeze. One-touch synchronization and IR scan make pairing a transmitter and receiver a walk in the park. With a pair of AA batteries, Shure’s SLX-D transmitters provide up to eight hours of nonstop operation that’s ideally suited for conferences, extended performances, and Sunday mornings.
