Shure SLXD24/K8B-J52 Wireless Microphone System - KSM8 Vocal Mic

The Shure SLXD24/K8B-J52 pairs the SLX-D digital wireless platform with the KSM8 Dualdyne cardioid dynamic capsule, a microphone designed around a unique dual-diaphragm architecture that controls proximity effect and delivers remarkably consistent tone whether a vocalist is singing directly into the grille or working the mic at arm's length. The digital wireless backbone transmits 24-bit, 48 kHz uncompressed audio across a 330-foot operating range, producing a 120 dB dynamic range that captures every nuance from a whispered verse to a belted chorus without compression artifacts or dropouts. Digital predictive switching diversity ensures the receiver seamlessly selects the strongest antenna signal, keeping the RF link stable even in challenging environments.

Setting up the system is designed to be fast: the SLXD4 receiver scans available frequencies with a single button press, and IR Sync instantly locks the SLXD2 handheld transmitter to the chosen channel. With 44 MHz of tuning bandwidth and 32 available channels, there is ample room to coordinate multiple systems on the same stage. The transmitter runs for up to 8 hours on two AA batteries, and the optional SB903 lithium-ion rechargeable battery adds precise charge metering in hours and minutes. The included zippered carrying bag, rackmount kit, and antenna round out a package that is ready for houses of worship, live performance venues, corporate events, and broadcast applications straight out of the box.
