Frequently asked questions
What systems are these designed for?
The SRA2 EW works with any professional wireless microphone system using standard 50-Ohm BNC antenna connectors across 470–952 MHz. The CU800 is purpose-built only for AKG DMS700 and DMS800 systems with DHT800 or DPT800 transmitters.
Do I need both products together?
No. The SRA2 EW improves RF reception for any wireless mic system; the CU800 manages transmitter battery charging for specific AKG wireless systems. They serve different functions and are independent purchases.
Can the SRA2 work in small studios or fixed installations?
Yes. The SRA2's flat 240 × 230 × 26 mm panel design mounts easily on walls or racks without floor clutter, making it ideal for compact studio spaces and permanent installations.
How long does CU800 charging take?
The product description does not specify charging time; contact the manufacturer or retailer for battery charge duration on DHT800 and DPT800 transmitters.
