The Shure GLXD14R+/B98 provides professional digital wireless performance for instruments with the precision BETA 98H/C flexible gooseneck microphone optimized for brass, woodwinds, and percussion. Dual-band technology operates in both 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz ranges for enhanced interference resistance and automatic frequency management that selects the clearest channels without manual tuning. The rack-mountable receiver and bodypack transmitter deliver reliable, high-fidelity audio ideal for live stages, theaters, and installed sound systems.
Constructed with a durable metal receiver chassis and compact bodypack, the system includes a rechargeable lithium-ion battery offering up to 12 hours of runtime. True diversity reception and intelligent backup frequencies ensure stable connections, while the BETA 98H/C microphone features a secure clip-on design with flexible positioning for accurate instrument capture.
