Shure SM81-LC Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone for Guitar, Piano, and...The Shure SM81 is a high quality, unidirectional condensermicrophone designed for studio recording, broadcasting, and soundreinforcement. Its wide frequency response, low noise characteristics, and lowRF susceptibility have made it a standard for applications involving acousticinstruments, especially guitar, piano, and cymbals.

The Shure SM81 is a high-quality, unidirectional condensermicrophone designed for studio recording, broadcasting, and soundreinforcement. Its wide frequency response, low noise characteristics, and lowRF susceptibility have made it a standard for applications involving acousticinstruments, especially guitar, piano, and cymbals. POWER REQUIREMENTS NOTE:This microphone requires phantom power and performs best with a 48 Vdc supply(IEC-61938). However, it will operate with slightly decreased headroom andsensitivity with supplies as low as 11 Vdc. Most modern mixers provide phantompower. You must use a balanced microphone cable: XLR-to-XLR or XLR-to-TRS. Built to withstand the rigors of regular stage and studio use, theShure SM81 unidirectional condenser microphone is a great choice for studiorecording, broadcasting, and sound reinforcement. Its wide frequency response,low noise characteristics, and low RF susceptibility make it a perfect matchfor applications involving acoustic instruments, especially guitar, piano, andcymbals. Ruggedly constructed, the SM81 operates on phantom power and performsover a wide range of temperatures and humidity conditions. It comes with aswivel adapter, attenuator-switch lock, foam windscreen, and case for carryingand storage. Key Features Frequency response.

Durable chew toy.
Color: Blue
My dog loves these. She chews on them a lot. She seems to like the different shapes. She is part Pit and an aggressive chewer. These chew toys last a long time. And I love the three pack so if we lose one, we always have a spare.

Decent durability for the price
Color: Blue
Bought a bunch of these for a dog shelter and have to say - decent for the price of you have aggressive chewers. All of the toys are still going 6+ months later, even with the strongest jawed pitty mix. Does get torn up at the ends but can easily be sanded down for a longer lasting toy, unlike some other hard toys with material not meant for sanding. The antler and ring seem to be favorites. The antler even has a divot so you can put soft treats in it or peanut butter and freeze it for a more interactive experience. Some came with a strong beef/liver smell but not overwhelming or off-putting. They are hefty without being too heavy, less likely to damage floors. Overall a good purchase

For aggressive chewers
Color: Blue
My pup is an aggressive chewer and these keep him occupied. He keeps coming back for them. Go to replaced old chew toys. Only issue is he leaves his toys everywhere and if you step on them. They are quite sharp
