System Components
R42 Dual Channel Diversity Receiver
The R42 is a half-rack receiver that manages two wireless channels simultaneously and independently. Its antenna diversity technology automatically switches to the strongest signal, ensuring a stable, drop-free connection within an operating range of up to 91 meters. It includes everything needed for rack mounting, optimizing space and equipment organization.
H60 Handheld Transmitter with OM2 Capsule
This transmitter combines a rugged metal construction with Audix's legendary, best-selling OM2 hypercardioid dynamic capsule. The OM2 is renowned for its ability to deliver a warm, full-bodied sound with a slight bass proximity and a midrange tailored for cutting through the mix. Its hypercardioid polar pattern provides excellent isolation on stage, minimizing pickup of other instruments and dramatically reducing the risk of feedback. It can handle high sound pressure levels without distortion, making it ideal for lead vocalists in a wide variety of musical styles and for speakers who require a clear, present voice.
B60 Bodypack Transmitter with ADX10 Lavalier Microphone
The B60 bodypack transmitter, with its lightweight yet durable metal housing, offers up to 14 hours of continuous operation on two AA batteries. It's the perfect complement to the ADX10 cardioid lavalier microphone. This miniaturized condenser microphone is designed for natural and accurate vocal reproduction, making it ideal for presentations, theater, or any situation requiring freedom of movement. Its cardioid pattern helps isolate the voice from ambient noise, ensuring clear and crisp communication. The system is also compatible with other Audix headset microphones, instrument microphones, and guitar cables.
