Shure SM7dB Dynamic Vocal Mic w/ Built-In Preamp, Mint Condition

Up for sale is my Shure SM7dB in mint condition. I’m a working audio engineer and bought this for my home studio, but I already own another SM7 and this one just hasn’t gotten the use it deserves. It’s been used a handful of times and has spent its whole life on a boom arm indoors. No gigs, no travel, no wear.

If you know the SM7, you know what this is: one of the most iconic microphones ever made. It’s been on countless records, most famously Michael Jackson’s Thriller vocals, and it’s the go-to mic for podcasts, broadcast, and voiceover. The SM7dB keeps everything great about the SM7B and fixes its one big headache, which is gain.

Features:

• Built-in active preamp with +18 dB or +28 dB of clean gain, so no Cloudlifter or inline booster is needed. A bypass setting lets it run as a standard passive SM7.
• Bass rolloff and presence boost switches on the back to shape your tone
• Integrated yoke mount that attaches straight to a stand or boom arm, no shock mount required
• The classic smooth, warm SM7 sound with excellent rejection of room noise
• Great on spoken and sung vocals, guitar cabs, kick, snare, and toms

Note: the preamp needs 48V phantom power when it’s engaged.

Includes: Shure SM7dB

It’s an absolute workhorse and a mic you’ll never outgrow. Happy to answer questions or send more photos.
