CR77 Receiver

The heart of Airline 77 is the CR77 Receiver. This true-diversity half-rack unit with PLL frequency control works with all of the Airline transmitters. Rugged, durable and crystal clear with incredible range. UHF (Ultra High Frequency) means clearer frequencies with less interference.

AX1 Handheld Transmitter & Q7 Microphone

Total vocal freedom, with no bulky belt packs. The Airline 77 handheld comes with a Samson Q7 dynamic microphone. The finest Neodymium handheld dynamic microphone Samson makes. Designed for professional-level music performance, there is no application it cannot handle. The super-compact AX1 Handheld Transmitter plugs directly into the XLR jack of the Q7 (or any dynamic mic). So small and light weight, you'll hardly know it's there.

Sound
I ought the original version about 5 years ago and loved it from the very begining. The only reason I didn't rate it highter was it's kind of easy to loose the little rubber gasket that goes between the capsule and the mic but wrote to Samson and got 2 replacements with no problem. I use it on a Beta 57 or Beta 58 and it's great! Nice part about it is I can put it on a cheaper mic (including th Q7 supplied) when someone else is using it (usually Karaoke) and don't worry about it. The Q7 mic is not very good but I can use it as backup mic or if a kid is singing and they are not carefull, not much lost if they mess it up. It's so nice to be able to swith between mics for 1 system! I did get a little noise from handling the mic but not that much as I know how to handle a mic. Usually use mine on stand anyway (drummer) but also use it handheld when I DJ. This is well worth it!
Quality
Only reason a 9 is because of the Qy mic!
