unbeatable for the price and quality, a condensor mic that really does the job

If you are a musician and also sing headworn mics are often a mic of choice. The problem is there isnt much of a choice unless you have a large wallet.....especially if you wish to go wireless.
The SM35 from Shure is a headworn mic thats available in 2 flavours...you can plug it in like any XLR mic.....or you can buy the version Im reviewing here the TQC which plugs directly into the Shure bodypack wireless system used for many of the Shure Wireless receivers (My system is the Shure slx 2). iF YOU DO HAVE THE STANDARD XLR VERSION HOWEVER PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS A CONDENSOR MIC, AND WILL REQUIRE PHANTOM POWER.

First the mic quality. I used to own a Shure dynamic wt20 mic which at the time of purchase around 5 years ago, cost about the same as the sm35 costs now. The sound quality was BAD on the wt20 but it certainly wasnt what I would call a mic for singing. Maybe for a DJ, as long as he didnt shout as it was prone to distortion pretty bad. The pops and thuds were also fairly common in that model too. That mic is now available for something like $80 rrp I believe now.
The SM35 however, is in a different league. With an RRP of around $150 or less, this mic is fabulous and rivals many lead vocal mics. When you have your preamp and amp setup correctly
(as you should anyway.....cmon dont blame the tools people) this is a crisp clear mic with minimal thump and pop, little in the way of background noice, which is great for a condensor mic, and definately up there with the great Shure build quality akin to the sm86, the condensor mic which I use constantly...(my favourite mic of all time).
its very light, comfortable, the cable has the right amount of length....and Shure decided to ditch the foamy material of the headsets of old which makes this a MUCH more attractive choice over time....a stain free mic that holds its own.
Ive sang at many volume levels and whilst yes of course there are differences, Ive been pleasantly surprised at the results from the sm35 compared with my vocals through many other mics......in fact dare I say it.....its VERY close to the legendary Shure SM58 in terms of sound reproduction. For a headworn mic at this price, thats just stunning.

If you are a drummer, or a musician, or a singer on the move.....this will not disappoint....Shure have hit a home run with the SM35. If I had to pick any flaw it would be.....maybe It would be nice to have it changeable left to right side.....but thats nit picking.
Fantastic mic
well done Shure.Read full review

Great mic if a little heavy (for me)

I love Shure products and have several.
I was excited to see that they finally had a Left side mount.
I loved the Snap-on windscreen but, personally found the arm a little too long which causes the mic end to bounce a little bit with movement. Definitely larger than the original standard Right Mounted Headset that came with it.
I personally prefer a much lower profile omni directional mic but, the only one that fits my Shure transmitter is a lower quality Off-Brand :}
C'mon Shure...Time to put one of those out.Read full review
