Description:

Fast and easy setup, even for a beginner

Simply press the channel button on the front of the receiver and it will perform a quick scan of the area and select a clear frequency to avoid any unwanted interference. Once this is done, sync up the receiver with your transmitter by pressing the sync button on the receiver and pointing the infrared port on the transmitter at the receiver.

How many musicians can use this system simultaneously?

A maximum of 8 musicians can use PGX Wireless systems in parallel. One wireless system consists of one handheld transmitter and one receiver.

Is there a difference in sound quality between this system and a wired microphone?

The design goal of wireless microphone systems is that the user cannot differentiate between a wired or wireless mic. The PGX system uses our patented Audio Reference Companding which makes the system sound more like a wired microphone than ever before, with less noise and greater dynamic range than other wireless systems. No artifacts, lower noise floor and clearer sound at all levels.
 

System Features:

  • 100 m (300 ft.) operating range
  • Multi-color LED indicating power, lockout, mute and low battery
  • The frequency Agile UHF design provides up to 90 selectable UHF frequencies that operate on an 18MHz UHF bandwidth
  • More than eight hours of continuous use with two AA batteries
  • Carrying case included in every system
  • Diversity Reception system uses twin receiver circuits to minimise noise and drop out caused by RF interference
  • Use up to 9 systems simultaneousy within the 846 - 865 Mhz range
  • PGX4 has has XLR and unbalanced 1/4 inch jack audio outputs
