What's in Your Mic Locker?

The Behringer Ultravoice XM8500 fits the bill for a stage-tough dynamic handheld vocal mic. Dynamic mics are rugged, moisture-resistant and have relatively high gain (as compared with condenser mics), making them ideal for live vocals and for miking (boisterous) amplified instruments. The XM8500's cardioid pickup pattern captures your lead singer or guitar cab, while rejecting off-axis sound. It exhibits an impressive frequency response of 50Hz to 15kHz (with a mid-frequency presence rise for enhanced voice projection), and incorporates a two-stage pop filter. Your mic locker needs a Behringer Ultravoice XM8500. Or two.

Behringer Ultravoice XM8500 Features at a Glance:
  • Dynamic vocal microphone with smooth mid-frequency presence rise for excellent voice projection
  • Ultra-wide frequency response for brilliant and transparent sound
  • Extremely high signal output lets your voice cut through
  • Cardioid characteristic minimizes background noise and feedback
  • Shock mount system to cut down handling noise
  • Integrated spherical wind and pop noise filter
  • Microphone stand adapter and impact-resistant carrying case included
  • High-quality components and exceptionally rugged construction ensure long life
Put the stage-tough Behringer Ultravoice XM8500 to work for you!

Reviews

Great choice!
I haven't A/B'd it with an sm58 or a sennheiser, but having used those mics in gigs for years, I can say that this mic does it's job very well & I hear NOTHING lacking. Get one - or more!
Music background: Gigging musician for 30+ years.....
Amazing
Great mic for the price, it's clean and doesn't pick up much background noise. It can't be beat for the price!
Awesome for the price
I have several of these mics and would recommend them. Especially if you have idiots using your mics. The sound good but the sound cone is small and you need to be in front of the mic. This has its advantage if you are doing thingsime a panel and you minimize noise from people next to the mic that you don't need to hear
Perfect for what I needed.
I wanted an inexpensive mic that I could practice at home with and use at a gig if another mic failed. This does not disappoint. I have a SM 58 as well and can barely tell this difference. This one might be slightly quieter. I do a few gigs here and there and mostly play at home. This is perfect for my needs, so I bought two!
Join the 8500 Cult
I am absolutely in the XM8500 cult. It's a fantastic mic and I've never heard a complaint from anyone I've used it for. At that price it's ridiculous to not have at least one.
