Shure SLX24/SM58 Handheld Wireless Microphone System

Gearank High Notes

Gearank Recommendation

The SLX24/SM58 appeared on our recommended list for Microphone Systems With 1 Mic from when we published the first edition back in January 2016 until November 2020.

Overview

As the label implies, this is another one that features the same capsule as the famous Shure SM58, a testament to its lasting legacy.

This one is packaged with the SLX receiver, Shure's mid-range analog receiver which has 960 selectable frequencies and can work with up to 20 compatible wireless microphones.

The receiver also features a 5-segment audio meter for visual monitoring of your signal.

It has an operating range of up to 300 meters and comes in a 1U half-rack profile.

Note that If you want a Shure SM58 system and you won't need to expand beyond using 12 of them, then go for the cheaper Shure BLX24R/SM58.

The Shure SLX24/SM58 is a good wireless system for those who are looking to expand their wireless mic options.
