The Shure TwinPlex TH53 Subminiature Headset Microphone combines the natural, detailed sound of the TwinPlex dual-diaphragm element with an ultra-light, fully adjustable headset frame built for professional performance. Designed for speech, singing, theater, broadcast, and high-movement applications, the TH53 delivers exceptional clarity, comfort, and reliability — even in the most demanding environments.

An innovative clutch adjustment system allows quick and precise changes to boom arm length and pitch with a simple turn of a knob, eliminating the need to bend the boom. With switchable left/right positioning, a durable 1.6 mm cable with redundant grounding, and moisture-resistant construction, the TH53 consistently overachieves in sound quality and durability.

Natural Sound That Fits the Performer

In dialogue or monologue. Song or speech. Every word matters. The TwinPlex dual-diaphragm capsule captures the full weight and detail of the voice — from low to high frequencies — with remarkable accuracy. The capsule’s innovative design maximizes effective surface area in an easy-to-conceal form factor, ensuring the sound suits the performer, not the other way around.

Built to Beat Sweat and Stress

No more “sweat-outs.” A superhydrophobic nano-coating helps repel perspiration and moisture, protecting sound quality during intense performances. Medical-grade cable technology flexes with costume design and movement while standing up to demanding schedules — night after night.
