GENERAL

The Shure Model WH20 is a rugged, light-weight, 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. The WH20 is suitable for any voice communications application

where comfort and reliability are required.

The WH20 has a cardioid (unidirectional) pickup pattern. This provides greater

gain-before-feedback and isolation from ambient noise and other unwanted sound

sources, such as air-conditioning, musical instruments and loudspeakers. A

carefully shaped frequency response includes a voice-frequency presence peak

and a low-frequency rolloff to compensate for the proximity effect inherent in

cardioid microphones during close-talk operation.

An integrated elastic CROAKIESheadband secures the headset comfortably.

The headband, wireframe, and gooseneck are adjustable to accommodate any

head size or shape. The WH20 is supplied with a foam windscreen and clothing clip.

FEATURES

SLightweight wireframe and headband adjust for a secure, comfortable fit

SExtra-strong, small-diameter attached microphone cable resists breakage

SCollapsible microphone boom for easy storage and transportation

SSmooth, natural frequency response comparable to high-quality dynamic

hand-held vocal microphones

SSupplied foam windscreen and clothing clip

MODEL VARIATIONS

COLLAPSIBLE MICROPHONE BOOM

The WH20 headset features a collapsible boom for shipment and storage. Before

wearing the headset, unfold the boom until it snaps and locks into place. Refold

for storage or transportation.

WEARING THE HEADSET

Place the headset wireframe around the head so that the wireframe and elastic

band are horizontal across the back of the head and the ends of the wireframe

fit over and in front of the ears. Position the elastic headband either above or below

the wireframe to provide the greatest comfort and stability. The white “SHURE”

should face outward (see Figure 2).

ADJUSTING THE HEADSET

SIf the headset feels loose or uncomfortable, carefully bend the sides of the

wireframe to make it tighter or looser (Figure 4A). The angle of the wire-

frame earpieces may also need adjustment (Figure 4B).

SAdjust the tension of the elastic headband across the back of the head by

sliding it up or down the ends of the wireframe (see Figure 5).

POSITIONING THE MICROPHONE

IMPORTANT: For maximum gain before feedback, position the gooseneck so

that the microphone grille (silver side) is within 25 mm (1 inch) of the right corner

of the mouth. Do NOT position it directly in front of the mouth (see Figure 3).

USING THE CLOTHING CLIP

The supplied spring-loaded clothing clip secures the microphone cable to the user’s

clothing and keeps it from becoming entangled with the user’s movements.

OPERATION

Connect the WH20 to the microphone input of a wireless microphone transmitter

or a balanced wired microphone input.

NOTE: The WH20 is a dynamic microphone and has inherently lower output

than condenser microphones. The transmitter gain may need to be increased

to compensate for the WH20’s lower output.

WINDSCREEN

If breath noise or “popping”is audible over the sound system, install the supplied

windscreen.

WASHING THE FOAM WINDSCREEN

The foam windscreen protects the WH20’s microphone-element from dirt

and moisture. When necessary, it can be removed and cleaned in a mild soapy

water solution. Important: Never clean the windscreen with any liquid solution

without first removing the windscreen from the microphone boom.

1. Gently pull the windscreen away from microphone.

2. Immerse the windscreen in mild soapy water and gently squeeze it

several times.

3. Rinse the windscreen in clean water and dry it with a clean cloth or

paper towel. Allow it to air-dry thoroughly.

English

4. When the windscreen is dry, slide it over the WH20 microphone.

WASHING THE ELASTIC HEADBAND

The elastic headband can be removed from the wireframe and hand-washed in a

mild soapy water solution. To remove and wash the headband, follow these steps:

1. Remove the microphone cable retainer from the wireframe.

2. Slide the elastic headband off the wireframe.

3. Wash the headband and allow to dry thoroughly.

4. Slide the headband around the wireframe to its original position. Reat-

tach the cable with the plastic retainer.

Note that the CROAKIESelastic headband supplied with the WH20 is not a

standard size; CROAKIES headbands purchased in stores are too long for this

application.
