Shure ULXD2/B87A ULXD Series Digital Handheld Transmitter with BETA 87A Microphone
The ULXD2/B87A is a digital handheld wireless microphone transmitter by Shure compatible with ULX-D and QLX-D receivers. The ULXD2/B87A comes equipped with the Beta 87A supercardioid condenser capsule designed to withstand extreme sound pressure levels, while still delivering a remarkably smooth frequency response for vocal performers and presenters. The capsule is featured with a supercardioid polar pattern that offers excellent rejection of off-axis background noise, helping to minimize the feedback.
With a rugged, yet lightweight aluminum housing, the ULXD2/B87A transmitter delivers pristine audio quality and RF performance, AES 256-bit encryption for secure transmission, and advanced rechargeability options for professional sound reinforcement applications.
