AKG WMS420 Vocal Set Band A - Professional Wireless Microphone System

The Vocal Set includes one HT420 handheld transmitter, one SR420 stationary receiver, two receiver antennas, an AC adapter, a stand adapter, and one AA battery. You'll need to provide an XLR cable to connect the receiver to your mixer or PA system, and any additional transmitters or receivers must be purchased separately.

Pilot-tone transmission sends an inaudible signal between the transmitter and receiver; if that signal is interrupted or jammed by interference, the receiver automatically mutes to prevent unwanted noise from reaching your speakers. This makes the system more stable in crowded RF environments like multi-band festival stages or venues with lots of wireless equipment.

The WMS420 is designed for beginner through professional users; setup is straightforward (antenna placement, frequency syncing, XLR connection), and the receiver's dual outputs (mic and line level) make it flexible for different PA or mixing-console inputs. Most troubleshooting—dropout, low battery, RF interference—can be resolved by checking antenna orientation, battery charge, and frequency coordination.

The D5 is a patented dynamic capsule engineered for a well-balanced, powerful tone with strong midrange presence, making it well-suited to vocals and spoken word that need to cut through live mixes. Comparable models like the Shure PGXD24 and Audio-Technica AEW-T4100 offer similar frequency response in the same budget tier; the D5's particular character leans slightly more toward clarity and projection.

Yes—the WMS420 is equally at home on a stage, in a boardroom, or at a worship venue. The dual receiver outputs (mic and line level) let you plug into powered monitors, mixers, or presentation systems, and the space-diversity receiver design keeps signal stable across typical venue sizes.
