Shure SUPER-55
Deluxe Vocal Dynamic Microphone

SUPER-55

Introduced 70 years ago, the Shure Unidyne gained fame as one of the world’s first single-element unidirectional microphones. Shure has taken the iconic 55SH chrome-plated die-cast body, in production since 1951, and created the Super 55 Deluxe vocal microphone. The Supper 55 offers an advanced supercardioid capsule and royal blue internal foam while retaining a retro-cool look. The Super 55 offers a high-output, vocal-friendly sound, smooth frequency response, and a robust shock mount.
