The Shure PGA58-XLR Cardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone with XLR-to-XLR Cable is a professional-grade audio solution tailored for vocalists seeking clarity, durability, and value. As part of Shure’s PG Alta series, this dynamic microphone features a cardioid polar pattern, capturing sound from the front while minimizing unwanted noise from the sides and rear—perfect for live performances where background noise rejection is key. Its tailored frequency response (50 Hz to 16,000 Hz) ensures natural vocal reproduction, making it ideal for both lead and backup vocals in settings like schools, churches, rehearsals, or small gigs.
The microphone boasts a robust all-metal construction with a black metallic finish and grill, weighing 294 grams and measuring 160 mm in length and 55 mm in diameter. This compact yet sturdy design withstands the demands of frequent use. It has an impedance of 150 ohms and a sensitivity of -55 dBV/Pa (1.8 mV) at 1 kHz, offering reliable performance with standard audio equipment. A convenient On/Off switch enhances usability, allowing performers to mute the mic without mixer adjustments—ideal for spoken word or live scenarios.
Included with the PGA58-XLR are practical accessories: a 15-foot XLR-to-XLR cable for professional connectivity, a stand adapter for easy mounting, and a zipper pouch for storage and transport. These additions make it a ready-to-use package for performers and educators alike. Users praise its warm, clear sound and affordability, often comparing it favorably to pricier models like the Shure SM58, though it may pick up more room noise at high gain.
Whether for stage performances, studio recordings, or karaoke, the Shure PGA58-XLR delivers exceptional value. Its durability, sound quality, and budget-friendly price point make it a top choice for vocalists, schools, and amateur bands looking for a reliable, versatile microphone.
