Frequently Asked Questions

Infrared sync is incredibly fast and simple – just point the receiver at the transmitter and they’re paired. It’s much more user-friendly than manually scanning frequencies.
No, the encryption doesn't impact audio fidelity; it's purely for secure transmission, ensuring your signal isn’t intercepted.
While AA batteries work, the SB 900 lithium-ion battery pack offers extended runtime and convenient charging, and is the Shure-recommended power source.
