If you didn't already notice, I posted a pfd from Shure with 
information on both the WL183 and WL93.

84_wl185.pdf

It appears that the 93 has a higher frequency range, up to 20kHz, 
where the 183's limit is 17kHz.  However, the 183 remains flat to 
below 100Hz while the 93 begins rolling off around 350Hz.
