GENERAL

Shure Model WL93 and SM93 Microphones are omnidirec-

tional, subminiature, lavalier electret condenser micro-

phones. Their visually unobtrusive design and tailored fre-

quency response make them ideal for body-worn

applications in TV broadcasting, theater, and sound rein-

forcement. Both the Model WL93 and the SM93 feature a

small microphone element that provides full, clear sound

comparable to that of much larger microphones.

The WL93, intended for wireless use, connects directly to a

Shure wireless body-pack transmitter. The SM93, intended for

wired applications, includes a preamplifier assembly for con-

nection to three-pin professional (XLR) audio connectors.

The SM93 requires phantom power, and operates over a

range of 11 to 52 Vdc, covering both DIN and IEC phantom

power standards.

sion broadcasting, video, film, and sound reinforcement

CONNECTIONS

Connect the male, four-pin miniature connector (TA4M) at

the end of the 93 microphone cable to the supplied preamplifi-

er (SM93) or to a Shure wireless body–pack (WL93).

NOTE: Do not connect the 93 microphone directly to a

mixer without using the supplied preamplifier or body-pack.

MOUNTING THE MICROPHONE

The tie clips and mounting bracket provided with the WL93

and SM93 allow the user to wear the microphone in a variety

of ways. To achieve optimum pickup, attach the microphone

to the user’s chest. You can also obtain high–quality sound

when the microphone is worn in the hair, sewn into clothing, or

attached to an acoustic instrument such as a guitar.
Tie Clip. A spring-loaded clasp attaches easily to a neck-

tie, lapel, blouse, or shirt. Snap the microphone into the

clip’s mounting bracket and attach the clip to an article of

clothing. The dual tie clip supplied with the SM93 provides

simultaneous mounting of two microphones.

Sew-On Bracket. Sew the supplied sew-on mounting

bracket directly to a garment (Figure1). Use dark or light

thread as necessary to match the color of the the bracket.
