89,449.00

Premium Performance for Stage and Studio

Whether you deploy it onstage or in the studio, the Shure KSM137 delivers premium performance. This end-address, small-diaphragm condenser microphone boasts a gold-layered, low-mass Mylar diaphragm for superior transient response along with a transformerless preamplifier for super-transparent audio reproduction. The KSM137’s highly consistent cardioid polar pattern offers exceptional isolation, while a built-in subsonic filter eliminates unwanted low-frequency rumble. A 3-position pad and a 3-position highpass filter round out the KSM137’s impressive feature set. The KSM137 possesses the coveted trifecta of versatility, durability, and precision, making it an excellent choice for live and studio applications alike.

Superior build quality ensures top-shelf sound

Over 90 years of mic-building experience went into the KSM137’s design, and it shows. Its super-thin, 2.5-micrometer, 24-karat gold-layered, low-mass Mylar diaphragm exhibits superior transient response, while its Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier yields incredible transparency, lightning-fast transient response, near-zero crossover distortion, and minimal harmonic and intermodulation distortion. Premium electronic components, including gold-plated internal and external connectors, add to the KSM137’s superior build quality.

A secret sonic weapon with pro-level features

The Shure KSM137 is jam-packed with the pro-level features you’d expect from a microphone of this caliber. A built-in subsonic filter eliminates the sub-17Hz low-frequency rumble caused by mechanical vibration. You also get a 3-position pad (0dB, -15dB, and -25dB) for handling high-SPL sources plus a 3-position highpass filter switch for counteracting proximity effect and reducing stand-vibration noise. Here, we’ve found the KSM137 to be a top performer — a serious sleeper hit — on acoustic guitars and drum overheads. If you’re looking for a secret sonic weapon, then the KSM137 definitely fits the bill.
