Featuring a break-resistant cable, high input clipping level to avoid distortion, and a secure, comfortable fit, it ensures reliable performance even in challenging environments. Its collapsible boom and included accessories make it the perfect companion for hands-free, on-the-move audio excellence. ## Description The cardioid (unidirectional) pickup pattern provides greater gain-before-feedback and isolation from ambient noise and other unwanted sound sources. A carefully shaped frequency response includes a voice-frequency presence peak and a low-frequency roll-off to compensate for the proximity effect inherent in cardioid mics during close-talk operation. Review: Not a cheap toy or knockoff - I bought this for hands-free podcasting, and it works great. The sound quality is superb and ease of use is excellent. I found wearing the headset for an hour or two to be comfortable without any needed adjustments or pain. I am so glad that I did not go with a cheaper product made of plastic and cheap parts. This headset is professional and is made of metal with great components. The ONLY thing I do not like is the 4' cord that is attached to it. Realizing that it is designed to be plugged into a belt receiver, I understand why they put a short cord on it, but it is too short for my application. I purchased a a longer male to female phono cord (mono) and now extended the cord for my purpose. But, this product is good. Review: and it's a great combination. I don't have to lug a mic ... - For leading sing alongs at church - I'm using this with a Roland Mobile Cube and an acoustic guitar, and it's a great combination. I don't have to lug a mic stand and mic; the sound is perfectly adequate (might even be great but I'm not a professional singer so can't really judge). I need an extension cord to give me more flexibility in amp placement, otherwise it would be five stars. ## Features - WH20QTR: Right-angle 1/4-inch phone plug - Lightweight wireframe and elastic headband adjust for a secure, comfortable fit - Extra-strong, small-diameter attached microphone cable resists breakage - Collapsible microphone boom for easy storage and transportation - Smooth, natural frequency response comparable to high-quality dynamic hand-held vocal microphones - High input clipping level eliminates overload distortion - Reliable at temperature and humidity extremes - Supplied foam windscreen and clothing clip - The Shure WH20 is a rugged, lightweight, dynamic headset microphone that provides high-quality voice pickup - It fits securely for active microphone users, such as aerobics instructors and musicians, with low visibility for stage appearances ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002F6OY4 | | Antenna Location | Singing | | Audible Noise | 78 Decibels | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,563 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #32 in Vocal Dynamic Microphones | | Brand | Shure | | Built-In Media | Headset Band, Headset Microphone Windscreen and Clothing Clip | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Headphone, Smartphone | | Connectivity Technology | Wireless | | Connector Type | 6.35 mm Jack | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (136) | | Enclosure Material | Foam | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00042406066020 | | Item Dimensions | 7.7 x 6.4 x 3.2 inches | | Item Type Name | Instrument Condenser Microphone | | Item Weight | 0.55 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Shure | | Mfr Part Number | WH20QTR | | Microphone Form Factor | Microphone Only | | Model Name | WH20QTR | | Model Number | WH20QTR | | Number of Channels | 1 | | Polar Pattern | Unidirectional | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Signal-to-Noise Ratio | 78 dB | | Special Feature | Clip | | UPC | 042406066020 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 years. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Shure - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Headphone, Smartphone - **Connectivity Technology:** Wireless - **Connector Type:** 6.35 mm Jack - **Included Components:** Headset Band, Headset Microphone Windscreen and Clothing Clip - **Model Name:** WH20QTR - **Polar Pattern:** Unidirectional - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Singing - **Special Feature:** Clip ## Images ![WH20 Dynamic Headset Microphone - Rugged, Lightweight, Secure Fit for Active Mic Users, for Instructors/Musicians, Right-Angle 1/4 (6.3mm) Connector for Unbalanced Mic Input (WH20QTR) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Wct9ole2L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a cheap toy or knockoff *by F***C on January 30, 2014* I bought this for hands-free podcasting, and it works great.

I don't have to lug a mic ... *by B***B on September 28, 2016* For leading sing alongs at church - I'm using this with a Roland Mobile Cube and an acoustic guitar, and it's a great combination. I don't have to lug a mic stand and mic; the sound is perfectly adequate (might even be great but I'm not a professional singer so can't really judge). I need an extension cord to give me more flexibility in amp placement, otherwise it would be five stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great replacement for those wishing to ditch their mic stand while staying wired. *by C***R on December 9, 2014* I play piano and guitar professionally and the WH20QTR is a great replacement for my stand mounted Shure SM58 I have used for years. Tried the Shure headsets wireless, but ran into too much trouble with interference on some gig venues so I decided to try the wired headset route. I've used the WH20 now for 8 weeks / 30+ stage performances and it has performed like a champ. The head set takes some adjusting to get it comfortable, but, even with my big fat head, it set up well and has retained its shape. Only down side, as others mention, is a short cord. I got an extension to use and mobility behind the keyboard rack is now no problem. A caution: If you get an extension, make sure it is not a heavy cord or connector because your headset will be pulled by its weight. I got a light 12' from Radio Shack and loop it through a belt loop with a little slack on the mic connection end to keep the head set free. As this is the 1/4" plug (not the xlr) gain settings on your amp have to be run twice as hot for this mic compared to the SM 58, but it has a sweet sound once you get it dialed in. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shure WH20 Dynamic Headset Microphone - Rugged, Lightweight, Secure Fit for Active Mic Users, for Instructors/Musicians, Right-Angle 1/4 (6.3mm) Connector for Unbalanced Mic Input (WH20QTR) - InstallerParts 10Ft 1/4" Mono Male to Female Audio Extension Cable - Guitar Cable Compatible with Amplifiers, Instruments, and Microphones - CableWholesale 1/4 Inch Mono Extension Cable, 6 feet 1/4" Male to 1/4" Female Plug for Electric Instruments (Guitar, Keyboard, Amplifier, Speakers, Synthesizers) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/8496770-wh20-dynamic-headset-microphone-rugged-lightweight-secure-fit-for-active](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/8496770-wh20-dynamic-headset-microphone-rugged-lightweight-secure-fit-for-active) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-13*
