Pros & Cons
Pros
Great addition to a great microphone. Comes in two pieces that look like they alone lock onto the microphone. I like the locking cover, and how the screw doesn't actually touch the mic.
Works as advertised. Sure makes solid equipment. Does exactly what it says in the description.
Windscreen turns the 57 into a great handheld mic. It rejects pops and sibilance way better than the sm58 grille. Looks professional on camera, works great at a podium or handheld 57.
Fits ths sm57 perfectly. Seems pretty durable. And the grey one (imo) looks pretty awesome on it!
Cons
It is completely unusable for anything closer imo. Without the screw that holds the foam windscreen to the microphone, the windscreen falls off. If your goal is to stop close mic popping, this is not your friend.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to install over existing mic one set screw to tighten
Very easy to install and does an excellent job
Or go with this one and shure made 34sure34 the foam is thin and doesnt change the sound structure
The fastening mechanism is weird and im not even sure how exactly its supposed to fit on an sm57

And it doesnt cost 400 or require a preamp
The cheap pop filter that came with my microphone mount

Packaging/appearance
Loved the look and its super easy to install
Looks much nicer than the cheapo ball foam screens
Competitiveness
I considered getting shure’s more expensive windscreen for the sm57 but since this one works so perfectly for me i really haven... Read More
There is a fix for that and it makes the sm57 more than 100 percent bullet proof against plosives
It didnt do so completely though and i switched to the a81ws which is way more expensive but does a better job
It sounds as good as an sm7 now at least to my poorly trained ears

Some reviewers have noted that it slips even when tightened down mine was fine when i mounted it but seems to have loosened a bit in storage but not annoyingly

I accidentally ordered this for an sm58 which is not listed as compatible but it is

Sure its pricey but you get what you pay for and with this you dont need an external pop filter

Doesnt quite work as i thought you have to tighten a single threaded screw which is super tiny to tighten the apparatus
