Shure DL4B/O-LM3-A DuraPlex Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Black, LEMO Connector

The Shure DL4B/O-LM3-A DuraPlex Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone is the epitome of top-notch audio technology. Designed for versatility and durability, this lavalier microphone offers a neutral, full sound quality that meets the highest audio standards. Whether you're shooting a reality TV series, embarking on a professional theatrical tour, or working in a broadcast studio, the Shure DuraPlex is ready to deliver exceptional audio performance. Its rugged construction, coupled with an IP57 dust-resistant and waterproof rating, ensures that it can withstand the elements without compromising on sound quality. This microphone is as at-home on a sandy beach as it is in a controlled studio environment.

The advanced 1.6 mm Shure Plex cable—first introduced with the award-winning TwinPlex subminiature microphone—ensures durability and reliability under harsh conditions. The cable features a dual redundant ground, doubling as a secondary shield, resulting in unprecedented longevity. With virtually zero “memory effect” the cable won't kink and is fully paintable, making it adaptable for various applications from film, broadcast, and theater to speech and performance. The Shure DuraPlex Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone is available in four colors (Black, Cocoa, Tan, White) and offers two connector types (TA4F and LEMO). Included accessories further enhance its convenience and versatility.
