use with microphones using a miniature 4-pin connector. To wire a
microphone cable directly to the preamp, follow these instructions:
Turn screw (A) counter-clockwise until it recedes below
the case.
Remove the cap (C) by removing the set screw (B) with
the provided hex wrench (.05 in.).

The pictorial shows the pin layout of a TA4F connector, as viewed from the
wiring side. If you use a bright light and look at the female connector (TA4F)
used for the cable, you will see numbers next to each hole.
Applications:
Condenser Microphones - Shure WH30, PG30, WL18x, WL50, WL51, WL93,
etc.
- Connect audio lead (black) to pins 3 and 4
- Connect bias lead (red) to pin 2
- Connect shield to pin 1 and connector body (use cable clamp insert piece as
the connector body terminal)

• Provides 30 dB of "pop"
protection.
• Wide dynamic range and frequency response

• Interchangeable cartridges that provide a
choice of polar pattern for each application
• Rotatable tie-clip that pivots in 90° increments
for placement flexibility
• Dual tie-clip and belt-clip preamp
• Supplied with snap-fit foam windscreen that
controls breath noise
• Balanced, transformerless output for increased
immunity to noise over long cable runs
• RF filtering
Windscreen
Foam Screen
Slip the windscreen over the top of microphone
so it covers side slots. The foam windscreen pro-
vides 5 to 10 dB of "pop" protection.
Interchangeable Cartridges
Microflex microphones
use interchangeable car-
tridges that allow you to
choose the polar pattern
for different installations.
RFI Filtering
Important: Microphones must be used with the
RK100PK preamp to optimize RF immunity.
Preamp Gain
If necessary, the preamplifier gain
can be reduced by 12 dB. Contact
an authorized Shure service center
for information.
R183 Omnidirectional
MX100
Shure Microflex®MX100 Series microphones are
wired lavalier electret condenser microphones
designed for speech and vocal pickup, general
purpose sound reinforcement, recording, and re-
mote monitoring applications. They can be clipped
to neckties, lapels, and other articles of clothing.
Interchangeable cartridges make it possible to
easily reconfigure microphone coverage as the
need arises.
