BETA 87A
Overview
Capture clear, professional vocals and spoken word with the Shure Beta 87A wired condenser microphone, engineered for live sound reinforcement, broadcast and critical monitoring applications. The Beta 87A’s supercardioid polar pattern provides tight off-axis rejection and pronounced upper-mid presence, delivering articulate speech and vocal detail even in challenging acoustic environments. With a smooth frequency range from 50 Hz to 20 kHz and high SPL handling, this handheld mic prevents proximity boom and preserves natural tone for singers, presenters and commentators.
Built from durable aluminum and steel, the Beta 87A meets the demands of touring and permanent installs alike and connects via standard XLR with phantom power for reliable studio and field use. Its precise null points minimize pickup of adjacent instruments, making it a strong choice for multi-operator setups, broadcast booths, conferencing systems and security or surveillance audio monitoring where intelligibility is critical. Backed by Shure’s Beta lineage and a 2-year limited warranty, the Beta 87A balances sonic excellence with rugged dependability. Order the Beta 87A to upgrade live performance, broadcast, conferencing or monitoring stations with professional vocal clarity.
