Shure PG48

Product Information

However, if you will be using your Shure microphone more regularly for larger gigs or recordings, then the extra money spent on the SM58 will prove worthwhile. Durability I should also mention the existence of an on/off switch on the microphone. Some may view this as a feature, but I personally think they look rather silly, but I suppose that for this reason they might work well enough for karaoke.

Although both microphones are rated at 300 Ω when connected to a low impendence input, the SM58 drops to 150 Ω. No! Both the Shure SM58 and PG58 are dynamic microphones that don’t require the phantom power a condenser microphone needs to operate.It's virtually useless live if you want to connect it along with other condenser mics to the same mixer because of the unbalanced output transformer (unlike every single stage mic, Behringer included!).

As dynamic mics, they don’t need the phantom power often required by a condenser microphone but still have a reasonable sensitivity and frequency response range. Don't use it with long cables (longer than 23') otherwise you'll get noise (so forget about with your multicore). The Shure SM58 has a wider frequency range, especially at lower frequencies, a lower impedance, and far superior noise distortion reduction. Two, not to use a cable longer than 6 / 10 meters at the risk of unavoidable noise chopper (forget multicore and Co.). The heavier weight can often be a deal breaker for some artists looking at the SM58 vs PG58 dynamic microphones.Shure microphones are world-renown for being amongst the sturdiest and most well-constructed dynamic microphones in existence and the Shure PG48 happily continues this proud lineage of tough microphones and as an added touch; the Shure PG48 microphone comes with its own protective carrying pouch. ReliabilityThe Shure PGA48 Cardioid Dynamic Microphone, designed for speech and vocals is an affordable alternative to Shure’s higher-end microphones such as the legendary Shure SM58 but comes with the quality construction that Shure is legendary for so it is perfect for those on a budget.
