SM58's sounding different

[KevinTran]

I have a pair of wireless SM58's and one corded SM58.

The corded one sounds quite different from the wireless ones. It's a bit more "muffled" for lack of a better term.

Does anyone know why this might be?

Is it common that the same model mics might sound different?

The wireless transmitter/receiver can definately color the sound.

Yeah wireless 58's always sound different to cabled ones.

Thats cause the sound is stuck in the cable, the cordless one is open to the world. I think you get more "room sound" from the cordless one..........

I notice that with my Nady 201 wireless guitar system. A different feel all together compaired to a guitar cord. It's strange, I like the sound a bit better with the Nady, but like the feel, with the cord. With the wireless there seems to be a little latency there. Has anyone noticed that with a wireless vocal system?
