This review is from: Shure PG48-XLR Cardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone with XLR-to-XLR Cable (Electronics)

I run a professional PA system and I had some trouble with 2 separate bands dropping my sm 58's on ground. Well during that show I bought 5 of these thanks for Amazon Iphone app. I keep them in the mic case with the 58s and when I have a feeling the band is going to be violent I switch them out for these puppies.

I would feel comfortable running a high end show with these mics cause they sound great. I personally would use them the regularly for back up vocals for there low cost and superior sound.

but some shows are very particle about having 58's. but these are the bands who know how to treat a mic.

of course nothing beats a classic shure sm 58

This mic is typical of Shure: good and tough. For the price, don't expect studio performance; this is a good mic for garage bands, karaoke, anywhere you don't want to shell out on for the superb SM series. It is a good sounding mic that does what it's supposed to.

The microphone is used with an inexpensive karoke amp at an assisted living facility. It is a great improvement from our old microphone. We are not fussy about quality vocal. Just need it loud and clear for making announcements.
