Last month, Shure highlighted new products at NAMM in California, including: GLXD16, SE846 earphones, and the SRH1540 headphones. All were well received, with particular praise to the GLXD16 and SE846, both of which picked up awards! See how NAMM progressed in our write about about the event.
The great thing about a show like NAMM is the opportunity to get our products in front of end-users and discover what's on their minds! During the show a number of common questions emerged, which we will answer in a series of blog posts - starting with GLXD16.
