2 Shure SM81 Condenser Microphones. Not a matched pair. Made in USA

  • Frequency Response: 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz for precise and natural sound reproduction.
  • 2 Cardioid Polar Pattern Capsules: Offers excellent isolation and rejection of off-axis sound. Complete with proper pads for omni and cardioid capsules.
  • 2 Omni Polar Pattern Capsules. Extremely rare and hard to find. Complete with proper pads for omni and cardioid capsules.
  • Selectable Low-Frequency Response: Integrated three-position switch allows for flat, 6 dB/octave, or 18 dB/octave rolloff to manage proximity effect.
  • 10dB Attenuator Switch: A lockable pad allows the microphone to handle high sound pressure levels (SPL) without clipping.
  • Power Requirements: Designed to operate on 12 to 48 Vdc phantom power (150 ohms impedance).
  • Build Quality: Features a steel construction designed to withstand the rigors of professional use.

I have had these for years. Originally bought 1 pair in 1980 with both omni and cardioid capsules. Had to replace 1 mic about 20 years ago.
