LD-Systems U308 HHD 2

The LD-Systems U308 HHD 2 is a professional dual wireless microphone system which, in addition to the receiver, also includes two handheld microphones. The technology behind it was developed in Germany and delivers first-class results – from simple operation with particularly easy connection set-up to impressive sound quality.

Features

• UHF diversity wireless systems with FM technology
• Up to 100 metres’ range
• Transmitter with 10 hours’ battery life
• Handheld microphones with a cardioid polar pattern and a frequency response of 55 Hz – 16 kHz
• Includes rack-mounting kit
• Receiver in a robust metal housing
• Easy connection via one-touch synchronisation

High-quality microphones

The two handheld microphones included have a cardioid polar pattern, making them ideal for use as instrument or vocal microphones, for example. If you prefer to work with a different polar pattern, that’s no problem either – the optional interchangeable capsules from the U500 series can also be used with the U308 HHD 2.

Overall, the U300 transmitters on the microphones deliver a battery life of 10 hours with two AA batteries and a maximum range of 100 metres under ideal conditions – so there’s plenty of power for even the longest and biggest gigs. Last but not least, the microphones impress with a wide frequency response ranging from 55 Hz to 16 kHz.

Advanced wireless technology

Ease of use and flexibility are top priorities with the U300 receiver: the unit features a bright LCD channel display and a string of LEDs to indicate audio signal strength, so you can keep track of things even in low-light conditions. The LD-Systems U308 HHD 2 operates in the 823–832 MHz and 863–865 MHz frequency bands.

The receiver also features two balanced XLR outputs and two unbalanced 6.35 mm jack outputs. If you wish to connect a guitar or bass amplifier directly, simply switch the jack output to instrument level. In total, the LD-Systems U308 HHD 2 offers 12 selectable channels, with up to 6 systems able to be used simultaneously.
