Shure WL185m Low-Profile Cardioid Lavalier Microphone with TA4F Connector, Black

The Shure WL185MB/C-TQG pairs Shure’s updated Shure WL185m capsule with a TA4F termination to deliver a discreet, work-ready cardioid lavalier microphone for clear spoken word. Part of Shure’s modernized low-profile line, this model is 8 mm shorter than the original WL18X series, making it easier to hide on camera while preserving natural, intelligible tone. The cardioid pattern focuses on the talent and helps reduce room noise and feedback in amplified spaces. With the TQG (TA4F) connector, it plugs directly into compatible Shure packs, giving you a reliable path from mic to mixer without adapters that add failure points.

Engineered for wireless speech capture, the capsule’s presence-tuned voicing keeps dialogue crisp, while the compact form factor sits neatly under a lapel or stole. A rotatable, adjustable tie clip indexes in 90-degree steps for consistent aim—handy when outfitting guest speakers or rotating crew. The included snap-fit windscreen tames breath and light wind noise without muffling detail, and the zippered pouch protects the mic between sessions.

This black variant is built for professional deployment in speech reinforcement, presentations, and broadcast setups where dependable performance and tidy cable management matter. It’s a natural fit for church audio, corporate AV, and education AV teams standardizing on wireless bodypack transmitter workflows. Choose it when you need a low-profile lavalier that stays out of sight, locks into Shure’s TQG ecosystem, and delivers consistent, polished speech day in and day out.
