The Shure Models 515SBGX, 515SBG-18X, and 515SBG-18XF
microphones are low-impedance dynamic microphones designed
to be mounted on flexible goosenecks or fixed pips. Optimized fre-
quency response and a unidirectional (cardioid) pickup pattern
makes them ideal for language labs, paging applications, and base
station communications. They are also recommended for use as
talkback or cuing microphones in TV, film, and recording studios.
Because of their low impedance, these microphones retain their
level and response characteristics even when long lengths of cable
are used.

Polar Pattern
Cardioid (unidirectional). Effective rejection of sound at rear of mi-
crophone is uniform at all frequencies, while front pickup charac-
teristics are uniform about axis (see Figure 2).
