Shure Vocal Mic manual Specifications, Stage Monitor & P.A. Loudspeaker Placement

STAGE MONITOR & P.A. LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT

For maximum rejection of unwanted sound, place the stage moni- tor(s) or P.A. system loudspeaker at a 60° angle from the rear of the BETA 58A, not directly behind it. Always check out the stage setup before a performance to ensure that microphone and moni- tor placement is optimum.
