Frequently Asked Questions

The 44 MHz switching bandwidth provides a wide range, but channel availability still depends on local RF congestion and coordination with other wireless systems.
The SB903 is a standard Shure battery and readily available; it offers considerably longer runtime than AA batteries, often exceeding 10 hours.
The SLXD2 offers excellent value and performance, but the G6 series provides more advanced features like Dante connectivity and a wider frequency spectrum for greater flexibility.
