Manufacturer's Description for AKG WMS 450 C5 Vocal UHF Handheld Wireless System
The AKG WMS 450 C5 is your best choice for vocal applications calling for a solution that is more flexible than a simple plug-and-play system yet easy to set up and operate. The WMS 450 C5 provides cost-efficient, high-performance solutions for situations where several radio mics will be used simultaneously, including gigs at small clubs, small stages, or regional events. Using several single-channel systems has its limitations and may simply be too much for the available radio band.
Features
- Highly flexible wireless system, ready for immediate use and scalable for demanding applications - Outstanding rugged finish for pocket-transmitter - Best in class frequency response - sounds as good as a wired connection - Excellent signal to noise ratio - Varimotion diaphragm for better sound and gain before feedback - 50 mW output means best-in-class interference protection - 6 hours on a single AA battery - Charging systen - Professional antenna - 18 simultaneous preset channels per band, with 3 bands available
New Low Price
60% more powerful than ANY other wireless in it's class. The WMS 450 C5 system features high output 50mw transmitters while others in it's class offer only 30mw (some even only 12mw). The WMS 450 C5 features the kind of power you'd typically find on systems costing thousands of dollars.
Auto Frequency Wizard makes the WMS 450 C5 easy to use in any environment. Not only can you use up to a possible 36 simultaneous channels of the WMS 450 C5, but the Auto-Frequency Wizard makes sure your system is interference free by automatically looking for the best frequency to use.
Great Battery Management
Be lean and green with the longest operating time in class: 6 hours using 1 x AA dry battery or 8 hours using our nickel metal hydride rechargeable "smart battery". Plus, AKG is the only manufacturer at this price point to include charging contacts on our transmitters for drop-in use with the CU400 2 system charger.
Built for the Stage
The C5 microphone included with the AKG WMS 450 C5 offers a crisp, "in your face" condenser sound that is perfect for the stage.
Best in Class
Yeah, we know. The "best sound in class" is a subjective statement but with the widest frequency response and highest dynamic range along with the lowest self noise of any product in it's price range...we don't know how else to say it.
Consumer Alert Most users do not need a license to operate this wireless microphone system. Nevertheless, operating this microphone system without a license is subject to certain restrictions: the system may not cause harmful interference; it must operate at a low power level (not in excess of 50 milliwatts); and it has no protection from interference received from any other device. Purchasers should also be aware that the FCC is currently evaluating use of wireless microphone systems, and these rules are subject to change.

Sound:
I love the sound of this Mic. I am a vocalist for a hard rock/metal band and I use diverse styles. The Mic sounds great with all of them.
Feature:
Overall it is pretty nice. The Battery life indicator can be a bit sketchy at times dropping from 6hrs to 2hrs or less in about 30 minutes. Seems to be most accurate with standard issues duracel/energizer. Metal enclosure instead of plastic would be nice.
Ease of Use:
Pretty easy to set up and get going with, a bit more complex when dealing with multiple mics.
Quality:
While this mic sounds great, it is not at all durable. One drop is all it takes to break it, and not a very hard drop at that. The first time a dropped it, it fell about three feet to the floor. I had to have it repaired at a cost of around 75 dollars. The second time it dropped from only about 2 feet and landed in a padded pedal box. Suffice it to say, I am now looking for something more durable.
Value:
For the money it is a great sounding Mic, but I think it should be more durable.
Manufacturer Support:
Good support, but I wish the turn around time was faster on repairs.
Overall:
Good sound, poor durability. If you are going to stand still and there is very little chance of dropping the Mic, go for it. If, like me, you like to be very mobile on stage, then I would look for something more durable.
