Shure PG288/PG58 Dual Vocal Wireless System

Whether you run a music venue, a lecture hall, or a karaoke club, wireless microphones can either make your job easier. . . or harder! While wireless mics give your clients and performers the freedom to move around without worrying about being tethered to a fixed input or tripping over cabling, wireless systems come with their own set of headaches. More specifically: transmission interference. Adding additional mics to your system can make this problem even bigger, but the Shure PG288/PG58 Dual Vocal Wireless System combats transmission interference in several ways to make sure you never miss those mic cables. Plus, it boasts the audio quality that has made Shure a live performance industry standard.

A Perfectly Matched Pair
When you get two or more wireless microphones in the same space set to the same frequency, those mics will start to compete for bandwidth. . . and if you've ever heard two radio stations fight for dominance on your car stereo, you know it's not a pretty sound. The PG288/PG58 System eliminates this problem, because PG-series wireless mics are pre-calibrated to stay out of one another's way.

Switchable Channels For Expandability
You might notice the "Channel H7, Channel K7, and Channel M7" options to the upper right. These codes represent different frequency bands--sort of like AM and FM. By getting systems with different bands, you can add additional Shure PG288/PG58 units to your setup without having to worry about crosstalk interference. In addition to these different band range options, each PG288 receiver has up to 10 switchable channels. Channel switching makes it easy to find a clean frequency if you're in a radio-busy area. In fact, you can use up to eight PG288/PG58 Dual Vocal Wireless Systems together. That's up to sixteen wireless microphones in one venue!

Receiver Diversity
Even with adjustable channel selection, there's no telling when an errant radio signal will suddenly beam into your space and collide with one of your active wireless units. Even momentary interference can cause audible signal dropouts or noise spikes, but the Shure Dual Vocal Wireless System combats these problems with a method called "frequency diversity." The PG288 receiver's internal diversity actively and predictively switches between one of several transmitted frequencies, so if the system senses that another signal is competing on a specific frequency, it automatically switches to a clear one.
Diversity gives the Shure wireless systems a more robust signal that you can rely on for demanding professional applications.

Classic Shure PG58 Mic Capsule
A transmission signal this stable deserves a stellar microphone, and the Dual Vocal Wireless system delivers with its Shure PG58 handheld transmitter. Based on the design that's become the industry standard for live performance the world over, the PG58 mic is perfectly tailored for vocal reproduction. Notes a full-bodied and musical for singers, while spoken word is clear and articulate. Plus, the mesh metal grill protects the mic element itself from drops and the inevitable singer-spittle. "PG" stands for "Performance Gear," and as soon as you start gigging with your new PG288/PG58 system, you'll know why.

You've always wanted a wireless mic, and you know you're not the only one in your band that does. Go on and treat yourself and a bandmate to the Shure PG288/PG58 Dual Vocal Wireless System. It's the affordable wireless solution that's worry-free, and sounds the way only a Shure wireless microphone can.

Technical Info

System
Working Range: 75m (250 ft.) Note: actual range depends on RF signal absorption, reflection, and interference.

Audio Channel Response: Minimum: 45 Hz. Maximum: 15 kHz (overall system channel depends on microphone element).

Total Harmonic Distortion: 0.5%, typical Ref. +/- 33 kHz deviation, 1 kHz tone

Dynamic Range: >100 dB A-weighted, typical

Operating Temperature Range: -18 degreesC (0 degreesF) to +57 degreesC (+135 degreesF) Note: battery characteristics may limit this range

Transmitter Audio Polarity: Positive pressure on microphone diaphragm (or positive voltage to tip of WA302 phone plug) produces positive voltage on pin 2 (with respect to pin 3 of low impedance output) and the tip of the high impedance 1/4-inch output.
