AKG WMS470 Instrumental Set BD8 - 570 to 600.5MHz Analog Wireless Microphone System with SR470 Receiver and PT470 Bodypack Transmitter in Black Finish

The AKG WMS470 Instrumental Set BD8 offers a highly flexible and reliable solution for musicians and performers who require a high-performance wireless microphone system. Ideal for live performances, regional events, seminars, and house of worship applications, the WMS470 is designed to provide exceptional audio clarity and versatility while supporting simultaneous operation of multiple wireless channels. With a 30 MHz tuning range, the system allows you to choose from 1200 available frequencies, enabling up to 20 channels to be operated concurrently within a single frequency band or up to 48 channels across multiple bands. This makes the WMS470 the perfect choice for complex wireless setups where seamless integration and minimal interference are paramount.

The SR470 receiver, part of the WMS470 system, is housed in a durable half 19-inch all-metal case. It utilizes advanced uC-controlled space diversity technology to enhance signal reliability and minimize dropouts, ensuring that the performance stays uninterrupted. The receiver features automatic frequency setup and offers up to 16 pre-programmed frequencies within the same frequency band, making it easy to select the best frequency for your needs. The system also includes an infrared link that transmits all frequency and setup data directly to the transmitter, streamlining the setup process for quick deployment.

The SR470 receiver is equipped with two BNC antenna inputs and includes two BNC UHF antennas for optimal reception. Additionally, it features an intuitive interface with a two-color backlit LCD display that shows critical operation conditions, such as low battery, audio peaks, and RF signal strength. The receiver provides both balanced XLR and unbalanced TS 1/4" audio outputs, ensuring compatibility with various audio equipment, from mixers to amplifiers. An adjustable squelch control is also included, which helps to mute the audio output if the strength of the radio frequency signal weakens.

Powering the system is the PT470 bodypack transmitter, which is compact and lightweight, designed to be worn by musicians and performers for maximum freedom of movement. The bodypack features a TB3M / 3-pin mini-XLR input for connecting instruments, making it compatible with guitars, basses, and other instrument microphones. It offers adjustable RF output power of 10 or 50 mW (depending on country regulations), providing the flexibility needed for different performance environments. The bodypack also includes a gain control knob for adjusting the input volume, along with a noiseless On/Off/Mute switch, allowing for precise control during performances.

The PT470 transmitter runs on a single AA battery, providing up to 14 hours of operation with lithium batteries. A battery status LED indicator ensures you are aware of the remaining battery life. The bodypack is also compatible with AKG's range of lavalier and headset microphones, offering even more options for audio capture in various performance settings. The PT470 also includes a BC400 belt clip for easy attachment to your clothing or instrument, ensuring comfort and convenience during long performances.

Included in the AKG WMS470 Instrumental Set BD8 are the SR470 receiver, PT470 bodypack transmitter, MKG L instrument cable, RMU4000 rack mount kit, universal power supply with adapters for US, UK, and EU, a AA size battery, and two BNC UHF antennas, making it a complete wireless solution for musicians and audio professionals.
