Shure SLXD24/B87A Digital Wireless Handheld Microphone System with Beta 87A Capsule (H55: 514 to 558 MHz)

The Shure SLXD24/B87A-H55 is a digital wireless handheld microphone system that pairs the respected Beta 87A capsule with the dependable SLXD platform. It suits singers, speakers, and AV technicians who want consistent sound quality without being tied to a cable.

The Beta 87A uses a supercardioid condenser design that captures vocals with high detail while rejecting ambient noise and feedback. Performers working with loud bands and presenters in reflective rooms will appreciate how the pattern focuses on the voice and keeps unwanted sounds out of the mix.

The SLXD2 transmitter houses the capsule in a rugged yet lightweight metal body. Two AA batteries power it for up to eight hours, and users can switch to the optional SB903 lithium-ion pack for quick recharging. With a line-of-sight range of about 330 feet, artists can move freely across large stages or conference halls without worrying about dropouts.

The half-rack SLXD4 receiver relies on digital predictive switching diversity to maintain a solid RF link. An auto-scan routine finds a clean frequency at the push of a button, and infrared sync aligns the transmitter in seconds. The 24-bit digital audio path preserves every nuance, and Ethernet networking allows coordination of up to thirty-two compatible channels when additional systems are needed.

Small to medium venues, houses of worship, schools, rental companies, and corporate AV teams will find that this system delivers a balance of audio fidelity, range, and ease of use. Whether the task involves a lead vocalist, a keynote speaker, or a lecturer who likes to roam the stage, the SLXD24/B87A-H55 keeps the focus on the message rather than the technology.
