Frequency response shaped specifically for kick drums and bass instruments

• Built–in dynamic locking stand adapter with integral XLR connector simplifies setup, especially inside a kick drum
• Studio quality performance, even at extremely high sound pressure levels
• Supercardioid pattern for high gain before feedback and superior rejection of unwanted noise
• Hardened steel mesh grille that resists wear and abuse
• Advanced pneumatic shock mount system that minimizes transmission of mechanical noise and vibration
• Neodymium magnet for high signal–to–noise ratio output
• Low sensitivity to varying load impedance
• Legendary Shure quality and reliability

It provides superb attack and “punch”, and delivers studio quality sound even at extremely high sound pressure levels.

The Beta 52A features a modified supercardioid pattern throughout its frequency range to insure high gain-before-feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted sound. A built in dynamic locking stand adapter with an integral XLR connector simplifies installation, particularly if the microphone is to be placed inside a kick drum. The stand adapter keeps the microphone position fixed and resists slipping, even when subjected to sharp blows and strong vibrations. A hardened steel mesh grille protects the Beta 52A from the abuse and wear associated with touring.
