Product Overview
The Shure A2WS-BLK is a black locking foam windscreen engineered for the SM57 and 545 Series instrument microphones. It reduces breath, wind, and plosive noise at the capsule, making it a practical accessory for podiums, lecterns, and handheld vocal positions in commercial AV and live sound installations. The locking design keeps the windscreen fixed to the microphone, which matters in conference rooms, houses of worship, and rental fleets where accessories are easily lost.
Product Description
The A2WS-BLK slips over the grille of an SM57 or 545 Series microphone and mechanically locks in place rather than relying on friction alone, so it will not work loose during handling or transport. The foam element attenuates air-blast noise from close-talking presenters and instrument breath effects without dulling the microphone's intelligibility, which preserves speech clarity in conference room and lectern applications. Because the SM57 is a fixture in commercial meeting spaces, training rooms, and broadcast studios, the A2WS-BLK is a common spare in any integrator's accessory kit. The black finish keeps the microphone visually discreet on camera and at the podium. As a locking windscreen it is better suited to permanent installation and managed rental inventory than slip-on foam, since it resists accidental removal. It is sold individually, allowing exact quantities to be specified per deployment.
Key Features
- Locking Retention — The windscreen locks onto the microphone grille so it stays in place during handling, presentation, and transport rather than slipping off.
- Breath and Wind Noise Reduction — The foam element attenuates plosives, breath blasts, and air movement that would otherwise reach the capsule.
- Model-Specific Fit — Sized for the Shure SM57 and 545 Series microphones for a secure, correct fit.
- Discreet Black Finish — The black color keeps the microphone visually low-profile at lecterns and on camera.
- Speech Clarity Preserved — Reduces unwanted noise without noticeably attenuating intelligibility in conference and presentation use.
