Features
Featuring the Beta®58A Supercardioid Dynamic Microphone capsule on top of the SLXD2 handheld wireless transmitter, the SLXD24/B58 provides transparent digital audio and rock-solid RF stability for lecture halls and live performances.
The SLX-D operates in the UHF band to transmit high-quality, 24-bit digital audio with over 120 dB of dynamic range for crisp, detailed sound. It utilizes Digital Predictive-Switching Diversity to protect the transmission from interference and deliver a solid, reliable RF signal without dropouts.
This configuration includes the SLXD2 handheld transmitter featuring an interchangeable microphone capsule design and equipped with a Beta 58A dynamic capsule. The mic’s supercardioid pickup pattern focuses on speech, helping to reduce feedback on loud stages. The lightweight metal transmitter features a selectable 1/10mW RF power output and a transmission range up to 330′. It provides up to 8 hours of operation on two AA batteries or an SB903 rechargeable battery (available separately).
