Shure 561 Omnidirectional Low-Z Communication Microphone for Gooseneck and Stand Mounting

The Shure 561 is a miniature omnidirectional microphone optimized for speech. The microphone's design allows it to easily mount onto a gooseneck or stand and the attached 4 ft (2 m) cable features a two-conductor lead for wiring XLR or 1/4" phone connections.

The 561 features a low impedance output for high gain during long cable runs and noisy connections. The microphone is optimized for speech intelligibility and is at home as a communication microphone for paging and talk back applications in broadcast and recording studios.
