ShureBLX288/B58 Wireless Dual Vocal System With Two BETA 58A Handheld Transmitters - Band H9
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for two vocalists sharing one wireless setup, the BLX288/B58 combines a dual-channel receiver with two handheld BLX2/B58 transmitters. QuickScan automatically finds a strong open frequency, keeping frequency selection straightforward when other wireless devices are around. The BETA 58A capsules are designed to emphasize vocal warmth and clarity while rejecting unwanted sound from the sides and rear. A quoted 300-foot operating range and up to 14 hours of AA-powered use give singers room to move during performances.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Two singers who need separate handheld wireless microphones for the same performance setup.

- Venues with other wireless devices, where automatic open-frequency scanning is useful.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Installations that require a rackmountable receiver, as this model is specified as non-rackmountable.
