Frequently Asked Questions

The K3E band is fairly common, so it can experience interference in densely populated areas; scanning functionality helps, but advanced users might prefer a wider frequency range.
No, the BLX system uses a proprietary protocol and isn’t compatible with other Shure series like QLX or ULX.
Expect a line-of-sight range of around 150-200 feet; obstacles and interference will reduce that significantly.
