The Shure SM81 Two Piece Tour Pack is a premium bundle designed for professional audio engineers, featuring two Shure SM81-LC cardioid condenser microphones renowned for their high-quality performance in live and studio settings. These microphones excel in capturing acoustic instruments, cymbals, and overheads, delivering a natural and flat frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Their rugged, all-metal construction ensures durability for on-the-road use, while the included windscreen and mic clip provide optimal versatility and protection. The Tour Pack also comes in a durable carrying case, making it ideal for touring musicians and engineers seeking precision and reliability.
