Additional Information

Customer Review Summary

Shure VP 82 is an outstanding directional microphone that impresses with its lightweight design, making it incredibly portable and easy to handle. Its compact size, no longer than a hand, allows for effortless use in various situations.

However, it’s worth noting that the microphone does not feature a slot for a battery, which means it relies solely on external phantom power for operation. Additionally, it does not come with any type of mounting bracket or clip, so users may need to purchase these accessories separately for optimal use.
