Looking for superior sound on a budget? The professional WMS 40 is for you. This entry-level wireless system operates in the UHF range and is ideal for small stages, clubs, concert tours, worship centers, hotels, fitness centers, etc. The WMS 40 stands for easy handling, excellent performance, and a very affordable price.
Wireless Made Easy
The WMS 40 disproves all prejudices against wireless systems. Easy to use and flexible, it is a genuine plug-and-play system: plug it in, insert batteries, and power up. Fixed preset frequencies allow you to unpack and use the system without studying the manual first. A complete set of indicators makes it easy to check system status.
Superior Sound Made Affordable
Even though the WMS 40 is one of the most cost-efficient wireless systems available today, it provides the high level of quality, sound, ruggedness, and reliability AKG is known for. Advanced circuitry ensures smooth operation and perfect sound even under difficult conditions.
SR 40 Diversity
The SR 40 diversity is a stationary receiver for all WMS 40 and microtools Series transmitters. Operating in the 710 MHz to 865 MHz UHF range, the SR 40 diversity is perfectly suited for small stages, clubs, small touring systems, places of worship, hotels, gyms, etc. The plug and play concept and fixed preset frequency let you set up and operate the system quickly and efficiently even if you are not a trained sound engineer.
Professional outputs include a balanced XLR and unbalanced TS 1/4 in. jack for connecting to every kind of equipment. An output level control allows you to match the SR 40 diversity's output signal to the input stage of the subsequent device. The rugged half-rack case gives you the choice of using the receiver free-standing or mounting it in a 19 in. rack.
Features:
Digital Four Level Diversity system for interference-free reception
Rugged metal case
Full metering for easy status monitoring

PT 40 Bodypack Transmitter
The WMS 40 Series PT 40 bodypack transmitter is a true universal genius. You can connect everything from lavalier or head-worn microphones to a guitar, bass, or portable keyboard.
In spite of its light weight and small size, the PT 40 operates for more than 35 hours off a single set of batteries, so its operating cost is the lowest in its class. An input gain control, noiseless on/mute/off switch, and professional mini XLR input provide maximum reliability and ease of use in every application. A belt clip makes it easy to attach the PT 40 to clothes or instrument straps.

AKG WMS40DVGTR UHF Guitar/Bass Wireless Diversity System Reviews
9 out of 10
"Major Wireless Fun!"
Feature:
The bodypack: Made of lightweight but sturdy plastic, has one 3-position slide switch for ON-MUTE-OFF (can be hard to read in dim light), a hidden mic/line switch and a rotary pot for gain control. This control seems to have ample range to it and should accomodate multiple level inputs. There is only one LED for battery low indication. The receiver: Metal cover, plastic front. Very lightweight and rack mountable, which is a plus. Has various LEDs for signal and antenna selection. Also has automatic squelch, which is a nice touch. Came with the instrument cable, wall wart, alkaline batteries storage pouch.
Quality:
I have already taken apart the bodypack and the receiver (hey, I'm a tech!) and noticed very good and sturdy build quality. Everything seems well soldered and anchored where required. No real complaints here.
Value:
Hey, I got a great deal on this wireless and think $200 for this type of UHF system is a steal.
Desirability:
Simply put, "Get one of these!" I couldn't make this thing drop out -I walked outside to my front and back yards while playing my guitar, and my amp was in the back room of my house. It's great and seems to have real robust signal quality along with great sound. I did not do an interference test, however, and I did not gig with it yet. The bodypack takes 2 regular ol' AA batteries, which was THE major selling point to me. I have mine running fine on 1800 mAH NiMH AAs. Most other wireless bodypacks use 9 volts, which I hate because they're so dang expensive and these wireless units eat them for lunch! This thing literally will only cost you pennies to maintain once you get a couple pairs of rechargeable batteries and a charger.
Sound:
Great full-range sound and dynamic range. Can hear a very faint hiss only when gain is cranked to clipping. Tried with bass, too. Sounds as good as a cable- 99% won't be able to tell. Don't worry about this wireless sucking your lows down. Did not try with 5 string bass, only 4 string. Also should sound fine for keyboards, mics, and other instruments, although I didn't try those specifically.
Support:
One of the selling points for this wireless for me is that I own several AKG pieces and have always been able to get parts very easily for them. Plus, they shipped them fast. AKG also has a good internet forum for their products, which is manned by their reps, too.
Overall:
Okay, to sum up: 1. Low "blemished" price from this site. 2. Great signal strength (more than guitar bug, too- 100 mW of power) 3. Excellent low-hiss sound. 4. Very cheap upkeep cost. 5. 30 hour battery life. 6. AKG quality
