Is there a difference in sound quality between this system and a wired Beta 87A?
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 rangeThis is the difference between the queitest and loudest sound that a mic can pick up.Read moreGo to the glossary than other wireless systems. No artifacts, lower noise floor and clearer sound at all levels.
