General

If you're in need of both a handheld mic and a headset microphone, then the Shure BLX1288-P31 wireless system is a great choice! While it's quite affordable, it offers that famous Shure quality! This user-friendly system comes in a highly complete package and besides the dual receiver and both microphones, you'll also receive a bodypack transmitter to go with the headset microphone. This M17 version of the system uses frequencies between 662 and 686 MHz.

Two Birds with One Stone

The Shure BLX1288-P31 wireless microphone system is a great choice for public speakers who rely on audience participation or vocalists who also play an instrument. With it, you won't have to use multiple wireless systems at the same time, while still being able to send both signals to a mixing board separately. This set comes with the PG58 handheld microphone and the PGA31 headset microphone. Both have a cardioid pickup pattern, meaning they're quite resistant to feedback, and both feel very solid and reliable. Furthermore, the headset is very comfortable to wear. The biggest difference between the two is that the handheld is a dynamic microphone and the headset is a condenser mic.

Shure BLX88 Dual Receiver

The Shure BLX88 receiver is a dual version of the Shure BLX4. It's equipped with powerful internal antennas, which (in contrast to external ones) you won't have to keep turning and adjusting in the hope that it improves their reception. Even at 100 yards away, the BLX88 will still pick up the signal of your headset and handheld microphones with ease. Finally, thanks to the QuickScan system, you'll have selected the right channels in no time, after which the set is ready to use.

Shure BLX1288-P31 (M17, 662-686 MHz) Wireless Microphone Set

Wrote the following about Shure BLX1288-P31 (M17, 662-686 MHz) Wireless Microphone Set
Ik ben drummer en wilde een goede cardioïde headset hebben en ook een losse microfoon. De headset is prima, zit goed stevig op het bolleke, hij zoekt direct zijn frequentiesignaal op en binnen no time doet ie het! Hij pakt de zang prima op tijdens de nogal luidruchtige omgeving. Het enige nadeel van de handheld mic is dat deze ontzettend gevoelig is! Je hoort letterlijk dat je hem vast hebt, ieder tikje of beweging versterkt hij. Je kan hem dus eigenlijk beter enkel op een standaard zetten met zingen. Dat is denk ik niet de bedoeling van een draadloze handheld microfoon..
