Shure | ULXD2 / SM86

The Shure ULXD2 / SM86 combines the proven reliability of ULX-D digital wireless technology with the renowned SM86 cardioid condenser capsule, delivering exceptionally detailed, natural and articulate vocal reproduction. It is particularly well suited to conferences, corporate presentations, broadcast productions, ceremonies and live events where maximum speech intelligibility is essential.

The SM86 is a cardioid condenser capsule designed to provide greater high-frequency detail, improved vocal nuance and exceptional clarity. In contrast, the Beta 58A is a supercardioid dynamic capsule optimised for louder stage environments and performers seeking increased proximity effect. The most appropriate choice depends primarily on the application, stage volume and acoustic environment.

The ULXD2 benefits from 24-bit / 48 kHz digital audio transmission, Shure's exclusive Gain Ranging technology, AES-256 encryption and outstanding RF stability. When powered by the optional SB900C rechargeable lithium-ion battery, it can operate for up to 12 hours while maintaining consistent audio quality without requiring transmitter gain adjustments.

The ULXD2 / SM86 is particularly recommended for keynote speeches, conferences, acoustic performances, ceremonies, television productions and corporate presentations. Its condenser capsule reproduces the human voice with remarkable precision and transparency while maintaining excellent resistance to feedback thanks to its cardioid pickup pattern, making it an outstanding choice wherever speech clarity is a priority.
