Superior build quality ensures top-shelf sound
Over 90 years of mic-building experience went into the KSM141’s design, and it shows. Its super-thin, 2.5-micrometer 24-karat gold-layered, low-mass Mylar diaphragm exhibits superior transient response, while its Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier yields incredible transparency, lightning-fast transient response, near-zero crossover distortion, and minimal harmonic and inter-modulation distortion. Premium electronic components, including gold-plated internal and external connectors, add to the KSM141’s superior build quality.
A secret sonic weapon with pro-level features
The Shure KSM141 is jam-packed with the pro-level features you’d expect from a microphone of this caliber. A mechanical polar pattern switch toggles between a highly consistent cardioid and true omnidirectional polar patterns, making this mic perfect for a myriad of applications. A built-in subsonic filter eliminates the sub-17Hz low-frequency rumble caused by mechanical vibration. You also get a 3-position pad (0dB, -15dB, and -2 dB) for handling high-SPL sources, plus a 3-position highpass filter switch for counteracting proximity effect and reducing stand vibration noise.
