Shure SM7B Vocal Dynamic Microphone – XLR Studio Mic for Podcasting, Recording, Broadcasting, Streaming & Gaming – Smooth, Warm Sound, Rugged Build, Detachable Windscreen, Wide Frequency Range, Black

The Shure SM7DB is absolutely incredible. I’ve used different microphones before, but nothing comes close to the clarity and warmth of this one. The built-in preamp is a huge advantage — I don’t need a Cloudlifter or any external booster. Just plug it in, set the gain, and the audio is clean with zero noise. The build quality feels premium and solid. The pop filter is excellent, the lows are smooth, and the highs are natural without being harsh. My voice sounds fuller, more professional, and way more consistent on recordings and videos. If you’re doing YouTube, podcasts, streaming, or any kind of voice work, this mic instantly gives you studio-level sound. Absolutely worth the investment.

I’m not a singer or professional podcaster but do like Karaoke so i figured this would be a great mic. I prefer a mic on a stand which this is the only option for this one. Basically a studio mic. The wind screen virtual eliminates vocal pop. The only thing i didn’t realize is it does need a pre amp to be most effective so keep that in mind cause it will add to the cost of the investment. Worth the money even for an enthusiast like myself.

The Shure SM7db is hands down the best microphone I’ve ever used! As someone who has worked with numerous dynamic and condenser mics over the years, I can confidently say that Shure took an already legendary microphone (the SM7B) and made it even better with the built-in preamp—an absolute game-changer. Right out of the box, the build quality is top-tier, as expected from Shure. It has a solid, durable construction that feels premium. The integrated preamp provides a clean gain boost (up to +28dB), eliminating the need for an external signal booster like a Cloudlifter. This makes setup so much easier and allows for better control over audio levels without cranking up the gain on my interface. The Shure SM7db connects via a standard XLR connection, ensuring professional-grade audio transmission. It is not USB, so you’ll need an audio interface or mixer. However, the built-in preamp means it works beautifully even with budget interfaces, as it doesn’t require an ultra-powerful gain boost. The sound quality is incredible—rich, warm, and detailed, with excellent background noise rejection. Whether I'm recording vocals, podcasts, or voiceovers, it delivers broadcast-quality sound with zero distortion or hiss. The low-cut and presence boost switches allow me to shape the sound to fit different recording scenarios. If you’re a content creator, musician, or podcaster, the Shure SM7db is an absolute must-have. It takes everything great about the SM7B and makes it even better. Worth every penny!

I never used to think I liked the SM7B. But as it turns out, what I didn't like was that anyone on YouTube or Twitch who could get their hands on this microphone would use it without having any idea what they were doing. They would over process this microphone or process it in such a way to ruin all the best things about it. But before you buy it, there are a few things to consider. First, this is a very dark microphone. That doesn't mean that it's going to make you sound deep and commanding. Your voice will still sound like your voice, but if you were looking for something that compliments your voice in such a way, this microphone could be that. But if your voice is already very deep, this can exaggerate this detail in your voice and even ruin the experience for some listeners. Second, this microphone is particularly hard to drive, especially if you don't have the right means to do so. Some people will tell you things like "I managed to drive it just fine with my Behringer UM2". But let me tell you, doing so is possible but by no means practical. This will introduce extremely high amounts of "Noise" (Static), and when I tried to replicate this myself, I encountered an issue. As I turned the volume near max the volume curve made a sharp turn upward, making it very hard to control what volume it was set to. Finally, just cause this is a dynamic microphone, that doesn't mean it doesn't pick up any background noise. Actually this microphone picks up quite a noticeable amount of background noise. So don't think this is going to completely remove the sound of people talking in the other room or that annoying sound of reflection from your room not having any acoustic treatment. It might be a little bit better than some condensers at this, it is by no means the best microphone for isolating. But what about what truly makes this microphone stand out? Why should you buy this microphone? First, it's an absolute staple in studios big and small, so if for no other reason, the fact that it's so recognizable and loved by so many. Second, this microphone offers a smooth sound like nothing else I've ever seen in its price range. The soft high end and flat mids, make for a smooth frequency response. In addition, the over all sonic signature of this microphone's quality, as well as it being a dynamic microphone makes for one smooth sounding microphone. And finally, if for no other reason, the bragging rights that comes with this microphone. While all your friends have their cheap knock offs and SM7B wannabes, you can know the true feeling of owning an SM7B. But in all seriousness, the SM7B has a name and reputation to uphold so you know that sure will have to deliver when it comes to quality. I hope this answered any questions you might have about this microphone and if you should buy it.

The Shure SM7B is hands-down one of the best microphones I’ve ever used. Whether you’re recording vocals, podcasts, voiceovers, or streaming, this mic delivers rich, warm, and professional-grade sound that instantly levels up your audio game. What really sets it apart is how well it handles background noise. It captures your voice with incredible clarity while rejecting unwanted room sound — perfect for untreated spaces. It’s built like a tank, feels premium, and you can tell it’s made to last. You’ll need a good audio interface or preamp with enough gain to drive it properly, but once it’s set up right, the results are incredible. If you’re serious about your sound, the SM7B is absolutely worth the investment. A true industry standard for a reason.

Straight out of the box this was already perfect! I would go as far as to say this is THE BEST MICROPHONE THAT YOU COULD EVER OWN! Literal perfection!

Night and day improvement over my previous setup I upgraded to the SM7DB from a BLUE Yeti Pro, and the difference is absolutely remarkable. This isn't just a minor improvement - it's a complete transformation in vocal quality that justifies every penny of the investment. Audio Quality - Outstanding: The vocals are significantly clearer and louder with much less boost required compared to my previous USB microphone setup. The SM7DB captures voice with a richness and presence that the Yeti Pro simply couldn't match. There's a professional warmth and clarity that immediately elevates any recording. Gain Efficiency: One of the most noticeable improvements is how much less gain staging I need. With the Yeti Pro, I was constantly fighting to get adequate levels without introducing noise. The SM7DB delivers strong, clean signal that requires minimal boost, making the entire recording process smoother and more predictable. Build Quality & Design: Classic Shure construction - this microphone feels like it could survive decades of use. The weight and materials give you confidence that you're holding professional-grade equipment. The internal shock mounting effectively isolates handling noise, and the built-in pop filter works excellently. Setup Integration: Works seamlessly with my audio interface setup. The XLR connection provides the professional flexibility that USB microphones simply can't match, allowing for better signal chain control and room for future upgrades. Upgrade Perspective: Coming from a well-regarded hybrid microphone like the Yeti Pro (which offers both USB and XLR connectivity), I wasn't sure the improvement would be dramatic enough to justify the cost. I was completely wrong - the difference is immediately apparent to both the person recording and anyone listening to the output. Bottom Line: If you're considering stepping up from hybrid USB/XLR microphones to dedicated professional XLR equipment, the SM7DB delivers everything you hope for and more. The vocal clarity and reduced gain requirements alone make this a game-changing upgrade. Perfect for: Content creators, podcasters, and home studio enthusiasts ready to move from hybrid microphones to dedicated professional-grade vocal recording equipment.

Tenía dudas de pedirlo por las reviews donde dicen que el micrófono no sirve. Grabé desde que lo saqué de la caja hasta que lo comencé a probar. Por algunos problemas de configuración en mi interfaz, no escuchaba el micrófono y pensé que no servía, pero revisando todas las posibles causas, encontré que el problema no era del micrófono,@9 solucioné y la verdad quedo encantado con la calidad del mismo. Vino en caja original, todo es original. Recuerden que como cuenta con un preamp integrado, no deben desconectar el cable XLR del micrófono mientras la interfaz está encendida o podrían hechar a perder su micrófono.

It was broken
