Using several single-channel systems has its limitations and may simply be too much for the available radio band.

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Top-quality construction, excellent pulling power and pristine sound quality are just three of the pluses you'll get with AKG's WMS450 handheld system. Since I purchased it, I've used this system several times in a very challenging environment - 150 ft. of distance between transmitter and receiver and constantly moving obstructions - and the system performed perfectly each time with no dropouts, no signal interruption and excellent sound quality. Wish the receiver display was brighter, that's pretty much the only place they cut corners to make the price point.,
