Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will a heil capsule work on the handheld mic , using the base as the transmitter to the receiver for better bass solo sounds?

A: This will only work with the Samson capsule

Q: 2. Would this connect to the JVC GY-HM250 or other camcorder?

A: The Samson XPD2 Headset USB Digital Wireless System was not intended for use with a camera, but it can be adapted to work. The receiver for the XPD2 System requires USB bus power, so it will need to be connected to a USB wall charger or a USB power bank, like you would use to charge a smartphone, and the output from the receiver's 3.5mm headphone jack can be connected to an audio input on the camera using a standard aux cable like the Kopul CMX-RC30 Right-Angle Coiled Stereo Mini Cable (B&H # KOCMXRC30B).

Q: 3. Under diversity it says "Antenna Diversity, True Diversity" but it has just two antennas. So it is just true diversity when one channel is in use?

A: True diversity, as described with the Samson Concert 288 Presentation Dual-Channel Wireless Microphone System with 2 Headset Mics & 2 Lav Mics, infers that a receiver has dual antennae as well as dual internal chips to assess and choose the stronger antenna reception of an incoming signal. A dual channel receiver with independent internal diversity chips can still be considered true diversity for this reason.

Q: 4. can I get a headset mic and a guitar system? with the 288

A: Unfortunately Samson does not offer a bundle that comes with the headset and guitar cable for it. The closest you can get to it would be to get a Samson Concert 288 that comes with two belt pack transmitters like B&H # SASWC288PRSI (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1121211-REG/samson_swc288pres_i_concert_288_presentation_dual_channel.html) with the Samson GC32 guitar cable to use with one of the belt packs. http://www.samsontech.com/samson/products/accessories/samson-parts-and-accessories/swagc32/

Q: 5. Will the handheld mic accept a heil capsule or is it not replaceable ?

A: This is not replacable.

Q: 6. Why choose one frequency band over the other?

A: If you already have one of this system in Band K, then you would get your 2nd system in Band D to avoid the possibility of interference with your first system. If you do not already have one of these systems then it does not matter which frequency band you choose.
