Powerful and Flexible Handheld Wireless Mic System

With the AKG WMS470 Vocal Set C5 wireless system, you’ll enjoy easy operation, dependable performance, and flawless audio quality. With one push of a button, the WMS470 finds all available frequencies for you to choose from. This makes it a fuss-free option for touring rigs and permanent installs. On top of its ease of use, the WMS470 makes a great mic system for demanding live performance vocals, thanks to its full-range C5 handheld condenser microphone with its impressive 140dB SPL handling. For the venue, touring band, or traveling stage act who needs great sound and wireless flexibility, consider the AKG WMS470 Vocal Set C5 wireless system from Sweetwater.

Reliable multi-channel performance

Even if you need 20 wireless systems running simultaneously in the same frequency band, the AKG WMS470 is up to the task. And even if you’re not running a lot of wireless systems at the same time, the precise tuning means you’re much less likely to get interference from other RF sources.

Rackmountable and adaptable

The compact SR470 receiver that comes with the WMS470 takes up a half rack space and comes with a handy rackmount kit. Even better, it’s compatible with AKG WMS 4500 antenna splitters, power supplies, and antennas, so the WMS470 is perfect for expanding an existing wireless rig.

Full-range C5 condenser mic

When you’re onstage with the WMS470’s included AKG C5 cardioid condenser vocal microphone, you won’t have to worry about cutting through the mix. That’s because AKG designed this handheld vocal condenser microphone for demanding onstage performance, with a live band behind you. The AKG C5’s cardioid pickup pattern helps it to give you a huge amount of gain before feedback — a definite plus. Also impressive is its 140dB SPL sound handling, which means even the most robust singers at the closest proximities won’t make it overload. There’s also a spring steel wire-mesh grill to stand up to plenty of use, while reliably controlling pops and wind noise when you sing into your AKG C5 vocal condenser microphone.

14 hours of battery life

The integrated HT470 transmitter that comes with the WMS470 Vocal Set C5 wireless system delivers an impressive 14 hours of battery life on just one AA lithium dry battery. That’s perfect for when you’re managing a lot of different performers and presenters and need your equipment to last all day without multiple battery changes.

AKG WMS470 Vocal Set C5 Handheld Wireless Microphone System Features:

  • UHF wireless system with rackmountable receiver and HT470 handheld transmitter
  • Up to 14 hours of battery life from a single AA lithium dry battery
  • Automatic frequency setup makes operation easy
  • Pilot tone prevents unexpected start-up noises
  • Supports up to 20 simultaneous wireless channels in the same frequency band (48 channels when combining bands)
  • Band 7 (500.1MHz–530.5MHz)
  • Includes SR470 receiver, HT470 transmitter, C5 condenser microphone, rackmount kit, power supply, and 1/4-wave antennas
