Product Overview
The Shure A4WS is a foam microphone windscreen that reduces breath and wind noise on the 16A, 16L, and VR116L microphones. It slips over the microphone to intercept plosives and air movement for clearer speech pickup. As a replacement foam windscreen, it is the genuine Shure part for maintaining these models.
Product Description
The A4WS is a foam windscreen designed for the Shure 16A, 16L, and VR116L microphones, suppressing breath, plosive, and wind noise that would otherwise reach the capsule. It is a practical accessory for lectern, presentation, and commercial meeting space applications where these microphones handle speech. The foam construction preserves intelligibility while shielding the capsule from air handling and close-talk plosives. As a low-cost replacement part, it lets AV teams refresh worn or soiled windscreens without replacing the microphone. Keeping spares on hand supports routine maintenance across a fleet of installed microphones.
Key Features
- Breath and Wind Noise Reduction — The foam intercepts plosives, breath, and air movement before they reach the microphone capsule.
- Model Compatibility — It fits the Shure 16A, 16L, and VR116L microphones.
- Preserves Intelligibility — The foam reduces noise without dulling speech clarity for presentation and meeting use.
- Low-Cost Replacement — As a genuine Shure part, it refreshes worn or soiled windscreens without replacing the microphone.
- Easy Installation — The windscreen slips over the microphone by hand for fast field replacement.
