Giulio, Your problem is easy to fix. I also use a Shure SM 57 on my K3.
It is a professional microphone, and is Low Impedance. You need to use an in-line impedance matching transformer. I use a Shure A95UF with an adaptor cable I made myself. They are inexpensive and work very well. Companies like Shure, Audio Technica, Radio Shack, Sescom, and many others make them. Here is an example: http://www.coutant.org/matching/5.html I'm sure you can find them in Italy.
