Shure BRH441M Single-Sided Broadcast Headset with Dynamic Microphone

Clear Audio for Broadcast and Media Production

The Shure BRH441M Single-Sided Broadcast Headset with Dynamic Microphone is designed for professional broadcast, intercom, and media production applications across Australia. Featuring a single-sided, circumaural ear cup and a dynamic cardioid microphone, this headset delivers natural, highly intelligible vocal reproduction while isolating background noise. With a flexible boom and flip-up mute function, it’s ideal for live events, TV production, and director cue monitoring where one ear must remain open to the environment.

High-Quality Sound and Isolation

The BRH441M’s dynamic cardioid microphone offers a tailored frequency response optimized for clear speech in loud environments, with a sensitivity of -67.0 dBV/Pa (0.45 mV) at 1 kHz and excellent off-axis noise rejection to minimize feedback and bleed. The single-sided, closed-back ear cup provides superior noise isolation, allowing users to focus on incoming audio cues while keeping one ear free for ambient sounds. This makes it perfect for broadcast scenarios requiring simultaneous monitoring and environmental awareness. Users note that the low sensitivity may require louder speaking for indoor recordings, suggesting alternatives like the Audio-Technica BPHS1 (-57 dB sensitivity) for quieter settings.

Durable and Ergonomic Design

The BRH441M features a lightweight, ergonomic headband with premium padding for long-wearing comfort, and a 270-degree pivoting boom microphone that can be worn on either side for precise positioning. The flip-up mute function deactivates the microphone when raised vertically, offering intuitive control during live production. The headset uses a Shure 6-pin connector for compatibility with various optional cables (e.g., BCAEC440), though the current BRH441M-LC model is sold without a cable, requiring separate purchase. The Kevlar-reinforced cable (in older models) enhances durability, and replaceable earpads, windscreen, and temple pad ensure long product life. Users praise the comfort and quality pop filter but note that the unterminated cable in older versions requires soldering or adapters for use. Some report plastic components feeling less robust, recommending careful handling.

• Low microphone sensitivity may be ideal for loud environments but less suitable for quiet indoor recordings; consider use case and preamp gain.
