Shure GLXD14+/MX53 Digital Wireless Headset System

Full Description

All-new dual-band technology

A new development for this revised system, the GLX-D+ family operates in both 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz wireless frequency ranges. Both digital and license-free in most countries worldwide (please refer to the included map for exceptions), this new design more than doubles the available bandwidth this system has to find a clean, clear channel for the best sound quality and stability feasible. This system will automatically scan to find a suitable channel when turned on, without you needing to press a button. Not only that, but the system will select backup frequencies to jump to if interference does unexpectedly appear, keeping your show running smoothly, clearly, and without dropouts.

Extended battery life

Shure has taken lengths to redesign the GLX-D+ lithium-ion battery pack to extend its use. Now offering up to 12 hours of continuous use at the 5.8 GHz band, and 17 hours in the 2.4 GHz band, this system can last throughout long events.

MX153 included

The MX153 earset microphone provides an omnidirectional condenser element for detailed sound and spacious pickup. No proximity effect prevents low-frequency mud when the capsule is placed close to you for extreme clarity. CommShield technology prevents interference, making for a comfortable and consistent fit with utterly clear sound.
