Shure MX395AL/O

Overview

The Shure MX395AL/O is a low-profile omnidirectional boundary microphone designed for permanent installation on tables, desks, or lecterns. It captures clear and natural voice audio with a frequency response from 50 Hz to 17 kHz, making speech crisp and intelligible. Its compact design, rising only 0.8 inches above the surface, allows it to blend discreetly into professional environments such as conference rooms, boardrooms, and lecture halls.

This microphone’s omnidirectional pattern picks up sound evenly from all directions, which is ideal for group discussions or presentations with multiple speakers. The boundary design reduces room reflections and ambient noise, enhancing overall audio clarity.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
