Product Overview
The Shure MX418SE/S is an 18-inch supercardioid gooseneck microphone with a flange mount, an in-line preamp, and a 10-foot side-exit or bottom-exit cable, built for flush-mount commercial AV installations that need tight pickup. This gooseneck microphone suits lecterns, conference room integration, and house of worship speech reinforcement where cable routing must stay hidden. The supercardioid cartridge narrows the pickup angle to isolate the talker and suppress nearby noise.
Product Description
The MX418SE/S is designed for permanent flange-mount installation, as shown in the product image, with a locking flange and a 10-foot cable that can exit the side or bottom of the mount for tidy routing through a lectern or table. The supercardioid cartridge delivers a narrow acceptance angle for higher gain-before-feedback, while the in-line preamp provides balanced, transformerless output that maintains a clean signal across the long cable runs common in distributed commercial AV systems. Shure CommShield technology rejects RF interference from nearby mobile devices, and the microphone ships with shock-mount hardware and a snap-fit foam windscreen. Because the cartridge is interchangeable, integrators can refit a cardioid or omnidirectional capsule as room acoustics change. For a wider pattern, compare it with the Shure MX418SE/C cardioid, or for a standard supercardioid see the Shure MX418/S.
Key Features
- Supercardioid Polar Pattern — The narrow acceptance angle isolates the talker and rejects off-axis noise for higher gain-before-feedback in live speech reinforcement.
- Side or Bottom Cable Exit — The 10-foot cable can exit the side or bottom of the mount, keeping cable routing hidden in lecterns and tables.
- Flange Mount with In-Line Preamp — The locking flange and separate in-line preamp support clean flush-mount installation in commercial furniture.
- Balanced Transformerless Output — The active-balanced circuit maintains a clean signal across long cable runs in distributed commercial AV systems.
- Interchangeable Microflex Cartridge — The capsule can be swapped to cardioid or omnidirectional as room coverage requirements change.
- CommShield RF Rejection — Built-in filtering suppresses interference from nearby smartphones and wireless devices.
