Shure Introduces Expanded Microflex™ Loudspeaker Portfolio For Best-in-Class Audio Experience

CHICAGO, January 30, 2025—Shure, a leading global provider of audio for collaboration solutions, today announced the expansion of its Microflex® Ecosystem portfolio with an innovative lineup of passive loudspeakers and a new networked amplifier. Designed specifically for conference rooms, the new Microflex (MX) Loudspeakers offer premium audio quality, flexibility for customization, straightforward installation, and seamless interoperability.
The expanded MX Loudspeaker range includes four new passive speakers – ceiling and wall-mounted – as well as a networked conferencing amplifier, joining Shure’s existing networked loudspeaker MXN5W-C. With other Microflex Ecosystem devices, customers now have a complete solution that includes microphones, digital signal processing (DSP), and loudspeakers, all working seamlessly to deliver unmatched performance, security, and installation efficiency.
“AV professionals and IT managers need solutions that make their workflows much easier: from choosing the right technology to simplified system support,” said Nalle Magnusson, Senior Manager, Product Management at Shure. “Our new lineup of four passive speakers and networked amplifier offers options that cater to their specific needs and overall system compatibility. They can experience the award-winning audio quality of the Microflex Ecosystem, and benefit from comprehensive support from a single manufacturer”.
As part of the Microflex Ecosystem, Microflex Loudspeakers are supported by standards-based security protocols to manage access and protect data including 802.1x, and AES encryption for control when connected to the MXN-AMP. This allows IT managers to use similar security protocols that they use for other networked endpoints, creating a streamlined workflow across AV systems.
