PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Shure PGX Wireless Series
Created for active musicians and presenters who also manage their own sound, Shure PGX Wireless improves your performance and simplifies your setup. Innovations such as automatic frequency selection and automatic transmitter setup make wireless quicker and completely worry-free. PGX systems now feature Shure's patented Audio Reference Companding, delivering the crystal clear sound quality that pro audio engineers trust. It's the best-sounding, simplest choice in wireless, from the leader in live performance sound.
Shure Beta 98H Instrument Microphone
The Shure Beta 98H is a premium cardioid condenser instrumental microphone that clamps onto the bell of wind instruments or onto the rim of percussion instruments. The integrated gooseneck and ratcheting swivel joint allows the microphone to be easily positioned and secured in place, and an isolation shock-mount reduces the transmission of instrument 'key noise' and other mechanical noise. A gooseneck angle brace is included to provide better retention of the microphone placement during more active performances.
The Beta 98H features transformerless preamplifier circuitry, which improves linearity across the full frequency range. The pickup pattern of the Beta 98H provides high gain-before-feedback and excellent rejection of unwanted noise. Its high maximum sound pressure level (SPL) enables it to handle the extreme demands of brass, woodwind and percussion instruments.
The microphone is supplied with a snap-on windscreen, a storage bag, a gooseneck angle brace, and a cable management device. The preamplifier is attached to the microphone via a 10-foot high-flex cable and requires 11-52 Vdc phantom power.*
*Where phantom power is not available, use the Shure Beta 98H with the MX1BP battery-powered preamplifier (optional accessory).

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
Channel Frequencies
Channel H6: 524.000 to 542.000 MHz
Channel J6: 572.250 to 589.875 MHz
Channel L5: 644.000 to 662.000 MHz
System Working Range: 100 m (300 ft.)
Note: actual range depends on RF signal absorption, reflection, and interference
Audio Frequency Response (+/- 2 dB):
Minimum: 45 Hz
Maximum: 15 kHz
(Overall system frequency depends on microphone element.)
Total Harmonic Distortion (Ref. +/- 33 kHz deviation, 1 kHz tone): 0.5 %, typical
