Microflex microphones provide solutions for meeting rooms, video conferences, large presentations or any other situation the business world throws at you. Gooseneck mics meet the needs of any size conference table while low-profile boundary mics are discreet and unobtrusive yet provide crystal clear audio. Additionally, CommShield technology guards against unwanted interference.

All Microflex models offer CommShieldTechnology, which guards against unwanted radio interference from consumer wireless devices such as cell phones and PDA’s. Shure engaged their development teams to redesign Microflex microphones to be highly resistant to radio frequency interference such as might be experienced with GSM cell phone technology and to implement design techniques such as multilayer circuit boards, improved grounding techniques, tighter enclosures for improved shielding, and improved microphone cable and audio connectors. The combination of improved techniques is utilized to deliver Microflex microphones that are highly resistant to intense nearby radio signals.

NOTE: When connecting the microphone to anything other than a Shure wireless bodypack, make sure the device provides a regulated +5 V DC (130 µA minimum).

NOTE: To connect the MX153 earset to an XLR microphone input, use the RK100PK preamplifier (sold separately).
