Sennheiser EW 500 G4 Wireless Instrument System with Ci1, GB Band

Full Description

The system that grows with you

From one gig to the next, you're constantly evolving. As your performances change, your needs do too. That's where the Evolution wireless system comes in. Designed to work hand in hand with you, no matter what your needs may be, Evolution systems give you the freedom to perform exactly the way you want to.

Take advantage of an 88MHz tuning bandwidth across a broad UHF range with exceptional stability. You can configure up to 32 wireless mics simultaneously across that range for use in the same space, with setup being quick and simple. The system also boasts switchable transmission power (up to 50mW) for high-performance transmission during any indoor or outdoor event.

The half-rack receiver features true diversity operation - this means that the radio receivers inside will automatically switch between the antenna with the strongest signal to reduce dropouts. So you can be sure that your signal will remain strong and reliable at all times. Plus, you can view the status of all of your important system parameters thanks to easy-to-read LCD displays. Combined with Sennheiser's renowned build quality, the EW 500 G4 wireless system gives you everything you need for years of reliable, high-performance operation.

Be yourself

You shouldn't have to feel glued in one place when you're on stage. You want to move. To perform. To be free. And with the Ci1 instrument cable, you can be.

With a 1/4'' jack at one end, and a locking 3.5mm mini-jack at the other, the Ci1 forms the link between your instrument and your EW 500 G4 bodypack. After that, your signal is sent wirelessly to your receiver, and then out into your amp or front-of-house system. No more long and dangerous cable runs that keep you tied down. You're free to be you, and to give that performance you've always deserved to give.
