Shure 596LB Handheld Microphone

596LB Handheld Microphone description:

The Shure Model 596LB is a compact, hand-held dynamic, low-impedance communications microphone with a 200 to 5,000 Hz frequency response. Designed especially for voice communications use, it is an economical unit for applications in budget-restricted paging and other installations. The 596LB microphone is compatible with many popular paging amplifier inputs. Its tailored frequency response provides clear, intelligible operation. The ARMO-DUR® case is small, light and sturdy, and fits comfortably in the palm of the hand. It has a long-life push-to-talk switch, and a durable coiled cable for years of reliable performance. The 596LB has a low-impedance output.

The 596LB can be wired for balanced-line operation and is recommended for use where long cable lengths are required, or conditions where severe hum pickup may exist. The 596LB can be fed directly into a standard low-impedance amplifier input, or a Shure A95 Series Line Matching Transformer (at the equipment end of the cable) can be used for coupling the 596LB to the input of a high-impedance amplifier. A two-conductor shielded cable can be used for extending only the microphone circuit. If both the microphone and the remote circuit are to be extended, a four-conductor with two shielded conductors should be used. The microphone circuit of the 596LB is normally open when the microphone switch button is not depressedp>
