Designed for active professionals like musicians and instructors, it offers a secure, comfortable fit with an elastic headband and wireframe. Equipped with a durable 3-pin XLR connector and collapsible boom, it delivers reliable, high-quality sound in demanding environments, making it the go-to wired headset mic for dynamic vocal performance. ## Description The cardioid (unidirectional) pickup pattern provides greater gain-before-feedback and isolation from ambient noise and other unwanted sound sources. A carefully shaped frequency response includes a voice-frequency presence peak and a low-frequency roll-off to compensate for the proximity effect inherent in cardioid mics during close-talk operation. Review: I take issue with... - I have serious issues with reviewers who assume because a product is not right for them that it is not right for anyone. I play drums in a classic rock band and Cajon and percussion in a small trio. I also set up and run both outfits PA system. I was tired of being anchored to a mic and boom in both situations and decided to go with the Shure WH20XLR. First of all the attached wire is not designed to plug directly into a mixer or amp. It is made to be routed and clipped to a belt or pocket where a standard XLR cable is attached. The flexible wire on the mic is not made to run to the mixer. I run the wire inside my shirt, loop it around a belt loop and plug in the mixer cable. Problem solved. I installed an XLR plug with built in rotary on/off switch on my mic cable to mute the mic. This is a dynamic mic! No phantom power or battery. It is a full size XLR connector. The are other versions of this for wireless and computer use ( the last 3 letters in the model designate which is which.) when plugged into a mixer or PA the sound level is more than sufficient. I don't know about a low to high impedance adapter into a guitar amp or other Hi Z inputs. It works great into our Behringer mixer. Just bump the gain a little. I have used an SM58 and SM57 for years and can state that this mic with just a small cut in mid and a small boost in low rocks. Every bit as clean as the SMs and no hassling with stands and booms. I've used it for numerous shows and it was a bit uncomfortable at first but once fitted properly it disappears. This mic is about $10 cheaper than an SM58 no switch version, so it's not a lot cheaper, just different tech. I love it, both bands love it and the audience loves it. I wouldn't record with it, but I probably would use a condenser on a stand or boom for vocals anyway. I hate to see good products trashed because folks don't read the descriptions or do any research. It may not be for everyone, that's why there are choices. And the reviews that make it clear that the reviewer has no idea what they are doing are the worst. Used as designed this is an excellent choice for a musician looking to get out from behind a mic stand or a drummer or KB player who wants to ditch the mic stand. I don't need wireless so this wired version is perfect. My SMs and mic stands stay at home. Any piece of gear can be defective or fail during use. That doesn't make it junk. Just electronics. It is astonishing how some folks love and use the mic with no issues and others can't get it to work or sound good. I prefer Zildjian cymbals to Sabian or Paiste but I don't trash those quality products. I do the companies a favor and don't buy them. I'd highly recommend this mic. It's worked perfectly for me. Review: Comfy cardioid XLR headset mic - Finally! I've found a comfortable and stable cardioid headset mic for vocals, spoken and sung, that I didn't need a wireless system for. I've tried a few different mics, and really needed something with good sound quality, that allowed me to move, didn't take up precious desk space, and was comfortable. I'd thought I had it with the Audio-Technica PRO8hex...which sounds great...but gave me a headache from wearing it. The Shure fits over my ears with an elastic band to help stabilize it. I can adjust the frame to fit my head, and I can wear headphones comfortably over top. I run the mic through an audio interface (Focusrite 8i6--great unit), and either into my DAW or into online meeting software. It doesn't quite have the richness of some other (much more) expensive mics, but it is fine for what I need: great value. My only complaint is that the cable is a little short for my needs so will need to get an extension. Highly recommend this unit. ## Features - WH20XLR: Male 3-pin XLR connector with detachable belt clip - Lightweight wireframe and elastic headband adjust for a secure, comfortable fit - Extra-strong, small-diameter attached microphone cable resists breakage - Collapsible microphone boom for easy storage and transportation - Smooth, natural frequency response comparable to high-quality dynamic hand-held vocal microphones - High input clipping level eliminates overload distortion - Reliable at temperature and humidity extremes - Supplied foam windscreen and clothing clip - The Shure WH20 is a rugged, lightweight, dynamic headset microphone that provides high-quality voice pickup - It fits securely for active microphone users, such as aerobics instructors and musicians, with low visibility for stage appearances ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0001DBZNM | | Antenna Location | Singing | | Audible Noise | 78 db | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,601 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #33 in Vocal Dynamic Microphones | | Brand | Shure | | Built-In Media | Headset Band, Headset Microphone Windscreen and Clothing Clip | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Headphone, Speaker, Headphone | | Connectivity Technology | XLR | | Connector Type | XLR | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 747 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Foam | | Frequency Response | 20 KHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00042406066044 | | Item Dimensions | 7.7 x 6.4 x 3.2 inches | | Item Highlight | Rugged lightweight headset mic with secure fit and 3-pin XLR connector for instructors and musicians | | Item Type Name | Instrument Condenser Microphone | | Item Weight | 0.15 kg | | Manufacturer | Shure | | Mfr Part Number | WH20XLR | | Microphone Form Factor | Microphone Only | | Model Name | WH20 Headset Mic | | Model Number | WH20XLR | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Ion batteries required. | | Number of Channels | 1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Polar Pattern | Unidirectional | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Recommended Uses For Product | Singing | | Signal-to-Noise Ratio | 78 db | | Special Feature | Clip | | UPC | 042406066044 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 years | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Shure - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Headphone, Speaker, Headphone - **Connectivity Technology:** XLR - **Connector Type:** XLR - **Included Components:** Headset Band, Headset Microphone Windscreen and Clothing Clip - **Model Name:** WH20 Headset Mic - **Polar Pattern:** Unidirectional - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Singing - **Special Feature:** Clip ## Images ![WH20 Wired Dynamic Headset Microphone - XLR - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41QW-A5UjJL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I take issue with... *by A***R on June 20, 2017* I have serious issues with reviewers who assume because a product is not right for them that it is not right for anyone.

Highly recommend this unit. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Be Sure You Specify the Correct Connecter for the Microphone *by F***A on July 10, 2023* SUPER IMPORTANT: there are several different options for connecters for this microphone and if you order without specifying you may end up with one you can't connect to your system. Several in my group made this mistake - it's crazy that Amazon doesn't emphasize this on the website as they can't be making a profit on this with a high percentage of returns. My second concern is that, after first ordering a unit without specifying a connecter and getting wrong one, when I ordered the right one, it did not work so I sent it back too. The third one works but I am concerned about quality control given that experience. My third comment is that this mic is not especially loud compared to a condenser mic I use that requires phantom power. As long as you have a sufficiently powerful amp you will be ok. Other than those three issues, we have found these mics to be very clean and super convenient for singing while playing an instrument. We get better and more consistent sound than we were from using conventional mics on stands. Given this experience I think they would also be excellent for giving speeches and making presentations as the sound is excellent, the mic is comfortable and unobtrusive and your hands are free to do your thing. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shure WH20 Dynamic Headset Microphone (Wired) - Rugged, Lightweight, Secure Fit for Active Mic Users, for Instructors/Musicians, 3-pin Male XLR Connector with Detachable Belt Clip (WH20XLR) - Hosa GMS-274 Microphone Power Switch, XLR3F to XLR3M Silver 10 x 1 x 4 inches - Amazon Basics XLR Microphone Cable for Speaker or PA System, All Copper Conductors, 6MM PVC Jacket, 25 Foot, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/1771351-wh20-wired-dynamic-headset-microphone-xlr](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/1771351-wh20-wired-dynamic-headset-microphone-xlr) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
