About this Product

The Shure KSM353/ED is a premier bidirectional ribbon microphone built around Roswellite – Shure’s shape-memory ribbon material that survives SPL and handling that would destroy traditional foil ribbons, rated to 146 dB. Hand-assembled in the USA from machined steel, silver, gold and aluminium, with a custom double-shielded transformer mounted perpendicular to the ribbon for moving-coil-level output. Supplied with the A300SM ShureLock wire-rope shock mount.

More Information

  • Bi-directional polar pattern delivers premier, completely symmetrical audio with superior off-axis rejection
  • Revolutionary Roswellite proprietary ribbon material replaces traditional foil ribbons with high-tensile strength, toughness, and shape memory that provides superior resilience at extreme SPLs
  • Patented custom ribbon motor assembly tailors bass response without attenuating the overall output for full low and mid ranges, and superior upper range presence from a rising frequency response
  • Double-shielded matched full-sized transformer minimizes signal loss and maximizes output while reducing magnetic and RF interference from 90-degree placement, offset relative to the ribbon
  • 146 dB SPL across 30 - 15,000 Hz frequency response ideal for capturing fast transients in vocals, acoustic instruments, and concert halls
  • Hand-assembly of machined steel, silver, gold, and aluminium materials, and housed in a pure stainless steel casing
