Shure MX184 Microflex Supercardioid Lavalier Microphone
The Shure MX184 is a professional supercardioid lavalier condenser microphone from the Microflex series, designed for clear, focused speech capture in conference rooms, boardrooms, houses of worship, theater, and broadcast applications. Its supercardioid polar pattern delivers excellent off-axis rejection, effectively isolating the speaker’s voice while minimizing background noise and feedback.
The miniature design ensures discreet placement on clothing or lapels. It features a 1.2 m (4 ft) attached cable terminated with a TA4F connector for direct connection to Shure wireless bodypack transmitters or MX400 series preamps. The microphone includes a snap-fit windscreen, tie clip, and interchangeable cartridge system for flexibility. Its wide dynamic range and smooth frequency response deliver natural, intelligible speech with minimal handling noise.
