Shure 5575 / 55SH Series II

This week we're looking at another set of classic microphones. The Shure Unidyne 55, well... the 5575LE and 55SH ii to be more precise. This mic has been in constant production since 1939 and has been in the hands of major artists around the world since its inception. From kings of countries to the king of rock n' roll, this mic has been there, done that and looking as cool as anything else doing it. Shure released a reissue of the original design of the 55 back in 2014, the 5575 Limited Edition. We're going to look at that mic along side its modern contemporary the Shure 55SH ii, which is widely available.

-Note: Not sure what youtube did to this video, my links below were all scrambled and the audio seems to be off a bit. The original file I uploaded sync'd fine... youtube things i guess. At least i didn't get hit with a copyright strike though!
