I bought the Shure WH20XLR for singing while playing drum set and percussion. I quickly realized it also worked great for flute and violin. This is especially cool for a singing violinist, who demo'ed the head set in a session with us. She is going to buy one ASAP! It slightly picked up my breathing if I get winded while drumming, so I guess I'll excercise more! The sound is excellent. My only wish is if it had an on off switch on it somewhere, so that I could turn it off for songs that are exerting. I suppose I could just detach the connection though. I love the idea that it is wired and the wires runs out the back of the headset, which also comes with a clip for the wire to attach to the back of your shirt. It also has a very sturdy spring steel clip to attach the end of the connection ( where it plugs into a mike extension) onto your pocket. Given the well thought out design, I am not sure why a drum set player would ever want a wireless headset.Read full review

I was advised this microphone for vocals. But Shure himself does not position him in his advertising, like a microphone for vocals. Most likely this is just a speaker microphone. Good for streams, lectures. For vocals, weak and poor frequencies. Despite the fact that it is dynamic, it is still advisable to connect it to a preamp for amplification.

The mic is light weight and produces great sound. However, being a right handed drummer, I prefer the mic boom to be on my left so I can adjust the boom with my left hand. The connector cable is very short and made to be used with a body pack not a mic cable. The mic is also very noisy when taking it off my head. I have to have someone mute the mic before I take it off or it sounds like explosions going off.

The one thing for sure is the volume, this mic in the headset is powerful for it's size, and does not feed back at all unless you go right into the speaker.Also the wire is padded with a croakie type of material so the wire does not hurt your ears. The only thing that did not match up was the wind screen, you can not put it on like they did in the picture,cause it will easilt fall off. I just put it on all they way so as not to fall off easy, clipped the clip to the back of my shirt, and clipped the other clip to my pocket, connected 10' 3 pin mic cord sound check and I was ready to go. You will love it, and think "dang", "why did I wait so long to buy it", like I did. So enjoy and sing your but off.
The WH20XLR is overall well-built except for the wind screen which can fall off easily. The sound is good at mid and high frequencies but understandably not as good at low frequencies compared to a hand held Shure microphone such as the SM58. It is a good microphone for back-up vocal when you need your hands for other instruments.
