Our take on the Shure SM27
The Shure SM27 is a wired large-diaphragm cardioid condenser mic, for streamers who run an audio interface or mixer and want a studio style voice mic. It is a mic only, with no USB.
A 3-position low-frequency filter and a 15 dB pad help you tame boomy rooms and loud voices. Impedance is 150 ohm. The listing names audio interfaces, mixers and professional cameras as compatible devices. Retailers rate it 4.7 across 128 ratings. For a stream, it would sit on a stand or arm in front of you, feeding an interface and then OBS.
- 3-position low-frequency filter

We do not lab-test hardware. Ratings and review counts come from the retailer listing and are labelled as such; stream-quality figures are conservative planning budgets from our published model. Prices are tracked at build time, not live, and were last refreshed 2026-10-22. How the numbers are derived: methodology. How picks are chosen: editorial policy.
