The Samson Stage 212 VHF Wireless System 173-198MHzfrom Samson Stage 212 VHF Wireless System 173-198MHzis a frequency-agile, dual-channel wireless microphone system that provides two handheld dynamic microphones, that transmit to a single rugged metal receiver. It can be used to capture audio in a variety of environments such as home karaoke, live presentation, education, houses of worship, and other dual-performer applications.

The Stage 212 design offers 12 operating channels across a 173 to 198 MHz frequency range. The system's IR sync function allows users to wirelessly match each transmitter to a receiver's operating frequency—and do so quickly. A 200' operating range provides freedom for any presenter or performing duo. In addition, the VH212 transmitters each offer up to 12 hours of battery life using two AA batteries (sold separately).

Furthermore, the rugged metal SR212 receiver is designed for durability and versatility. Its back panel provides two 1/4" outputs, as well as a single balanced XLR out that combines the two channels, allowing connection to a mixer or powered PA speaker. The 1/4" outputs send each channel separately. Front panel volume controls on each channel let you find the right blend between each performer.

Finally, The Stage 212 operates in the VHF frequency spectrum, which is less crowded with the advancement of digital TV.
