The Shure KSM11 is a wired cardioid condenser handheld vocal microphone. A proprietary condenser cartridge with a ¾" gold diaphragm gives a detailed, natural vocal sound, and its deep cardioid pattern keeps rejection high on loud stages. This is the wired XLR microphone; for Shure digital wireless handhelds, the same KSM11 head is sold as the RPW192 and RPW194 capsules.
