Questions & Answers

Although every review looks as if it was written by musicians, this seems to be an ideal model for fitness instructors Do the model number and serial number match? What sort of fitness do you do?

In addition, the SM35 is not specifically designed for fitness use as it does not come with the same level of sweat/water protection as the SM31FH. A particular reason musicians prefer the SM35 over the SM31FH is because the SM35 is larger, thicker, and features a much better quality mic capsule, providing better sound quality than

Is phantom power required for the wired version of this mic? Does it receive any power from the USB icicle when connected to USB?

A ghostly power source is needed for this. was about to send it back, hoping that it didn't work, but when I pushed the phantom power button it came alive. The Icicle description states that "it has 48V phantom power for those power supply systems". Mics with a voracious appetite for condenser audio. That's all you need to do.

Would I be better off buying the orange one? Is this one exclusively for singers or is it more noticeable a difference?

With a frequency response range of 40-80 Hz, the SM35 has a larger frequency response range Twenty thousand Hz compared to 45 thousand Hz on the SM31FH This means the SM35 is slightly better for singing because it operates at 20k Hz. In humid environments, the features of the SM31FH (Orange) protect against rusting due to sweat-proofing/resistant properties.

The Shure Aerobics Fitness version has a better sound quality than the Shure Aerobics Fitness version, but it is less stable
4/5

The SM35-H is what I use as a street performer on the Santa Monica Pier My show was hosted by a professional TQG microphone. The pop music I listen to and dance to makes me happy. Sound quality is quite good for a $100 purchase. Sound quality is better and it is actually a newer, more open mouthpiece compared to the SM31FH Fitness version. If you move your head vigorously, the boom arm is not as stable as the fitness mic, and it moves around a little bit. When you are dancing, it still does a good job, but the movement can cause slight differences in The movement should be so slight that you won't notice it even if you just walk around without jumping and spinning. There is also another drawback Wind noise is picked up more than with the fitness model. It can be a problem if you are an outdoor worker like I am. The SM35-DS is an excellent product in terms of sound, but I can see these two faults as worth it for the significantly better sound quality. The Quality Group. I am not trying to offend you. I used one of the SM31FH Fitness versions for a few years before switching to this one It is also a great microphone with good sound quality. There is a slight muffled sound to it, however. Windy days may still be the time for me to use it. Neither of these Shure mics will fail to impress. The Santa Monica Pier is waiting for you!.

For the price, this mic is a great option
5/5

I got the "wired/XLR" version, which works the same way as the wireless minus an inline adapter preamp that converts it to an I am so sorry In addition to the wireless pack, it is possible to use it without one. In addition to its stunning sound, the mic feels comfortable and is reasonably priced. Quality is hard to beat when it comes to sure. However, the only issue I have with it is that it only appears to come from the left side of your face- There isn't a right side to it, nor is it switchable. I got used to it quickly, but I wasn't able to replace it. The show went straight to rehearsal on Friday and the show on Saturday. Playing drums and singing backup is what I usually do Perhaps one or two leads will come our way- Nevertheless, for this show and this band, I sing lead and play many Latin percussion instruments (congas, timbales). I also move around quite a bit as it is a high energy show. Unexpectedly, the object stayed where it was. This is a fantastic microphone. I'm glad.

Using LA Fitness perfect match and other health clubs, you can stay healthy and own your own piece of mouth
5/5

Equipment parts are extremely hard to come by for fitness instructors. Those who work for LA Fitness and confirm the device/receiver in their club to be a SHURE brand device - please let us know. By far, this is by far the best, and most current method of avoiding the drama caused by broken headsets, and worse yet, stench and disgust. bacteria, and they cannot be washed). Buy this for yourself and do yourself a favor. Plug it into the gym's battery pack, then your voice will be linked to the main club system wirelessly. With this redesign, the old bending section for going around your chin that broke all the time stays in place and is pretty much perfect. There is no dirty sponge that tears off the MOUTHPIECE nor is there a plastic snap to remove it (no dirty sponges). A modern absorbent plastic band runs across top, and it can be easily wiped down if instructors need to share, making it a sanitary and not gross item. Recently, I was a part of opening three new LA Fitness clubs as part of an expansion program. This was the headpiece set used at all of the clubs. My own model has also been tested in older clubs with older installations, which date back to 2009. Having read this, I recommend it without reservation to all coaches and instructors. It is now over with the strain and aggravation of handling this type of equipment. If you will just find a special bag or case to store it in your workout bag, you'll be fine. Despite its fragility, it is very strong and is not meant to be crushed and abused by shoes and other items that we carry around.

The mic on this headset is not as light as those on TED talks
3/5

When it comes to a microphone that's designed for people who move while talking (i. e. There are so many fitness instructors, presenters, etc. ) that it's unbelievable why it's so big and heavy. The headset often hurts my ears if I wear it for more than an hour. When you add the adaptor, the XLR connector weighs more than it should. Unless they are supported in their own right, these things tug at the wires of the headset and tug on it itself, too. Although it's not a useless solution for every application, for mine (gaming) it was not a good solution and I feel like the money was wasted because I am not likely to My hope was to find a lightweight headset mic that does not rest directly on my head like traditional headset mics, but this mic falls short. Although the sound quality is not great, for what it's worth, it is still good.

A good show would have been better with no audio drop-outs
3/5

A headset mic is my teaching tool since I am a fitness instructor. The headsets I own all have sound problems after a couple of uses. I have two sets and each loses its sound after a few It is not unusual for me to teach 2 hours by the end of a four-hour block. Toward the end of the first five hours, sound starts to muffle and/or the mic suddenly stops producing After getting a replacement, I tested both headsets to see if I could isolate the issue to a defect in the first set, only to find that the new model did the same thing after a few hours. Then, I would plug in the original headset and it would work fine.

The Shoure A headset microphone with an XLR connector
5/5

To not have to play guitar while looking at a stationary mic was my reason for buying. What I learned about this mic can be found below. If you are using this wired xlr mic with preamp, be sure to have phantom power. It was the first thing I noticed when I tried to plug in the mic that it did not My microphone requires phantom power and once I was able to adjust that, I did not have to do that with my previous mic. Despite its comfort, flexibility, and staying in place, the headset is surprisingly stable. There is one aspect of the inline preamp that is less comfortable as it has some weight and requires you to attach it to your clothing with the provided You can't let the preamp hang because it's too heavy. There may be no belt or pocket on a woman's pants to attach her belt The microphone comes without the pouch or bag you need, so you may want to purchase one, and, as a result, you may have to pay the shipping charge. A XLR cable can be considered an accessory. My expectations were met in terms of the sound quality and features, so I am pleased.
