Shure MX202B Supercardioid Hanging Condenser Microphone

The Shure MX202B/S is a hanging condenser microphone designed to give installations focused, high-quality sound without drawing attention to the hardware itself. Its supercardioid cartridge captures the source with precision while rejecting nearby noise. A frequency response from 50 Hz to 17 kHz and a balanced, transformerless output help deliver audio that sounds clear and natural, even when the full 30-foot cable is in use.

Positioning is straightforward. A flexible gooseneck lets you aim the capsule toward a choir, lectern, or conference table, and the long cable reaches across ceilings and catwalks. The housing has a design that is compact and black, so it blends into lighting grids or rafters and keeps the audience focused on the performance rather than the gear.

The MX202B/S adapts as needs change. It operates on standard 11 to 52 volt phantom power, accepts interchangeable cardioid, supercardioid, and omnidirectional cartridges, and handles sound levels up to 122.7 dB SPL. These options make it easy to match different rooms, ensembles, or spoken-word setups without replacing the entire microphone.

Because of its discreet profile, long reach, and dependable Shure build, this microphone fits naturally in houses of worship, boardrooms, theaters, and broadcast studios where consistent, professional sound is essential.
