waster Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I'm sure I saw a new Shure Beta 91 at PLASA that had the preamp built in but can't see it anywhere on the Shure site... Did I imagine it? (And no it wasn't a 901!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappie Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Yes, there is both a new 91 and a 98. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waster Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Glad I didn't imagine it! Any idea on release date or price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlyfarly Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Can't see any information about this on the Shure website....not even in upcoming new products.I wonder what they have done to it? Hopefully it will sound a little more like the original SM91......should never have been discontinued IMHO, it wipes the floor compared to the Beta.

2ohm Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Hi, You weren't imagining...we do have a new 91 and 98 coming out. In fact there are two versions of the 98. All the models have new mic elements that make them sound more like the original SM versions. Also, the new BETA91A and BETA98AMP have integrated pre-amps. The BETA98AD/C still uses an external pre-amp but has the new mic element. All the information will be up on our website in the next day or two.

charlyfarly Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Wow! ;) I will be one very happy bunny if they do sound like the original SM's. Like the idea of integrated pre's too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waster Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Any plans for trade in deals. Last beta 91 I bough was only 4 months ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallMike Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Let's hope the connection problems are sorted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Beech Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Agreed on that, pain in the arse, got one in bits at the moment.... somewhere. Most of mine are SM91 and I do prefer them but don't appear to find the beta91 as bad as some people do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
