High-quality, Handheld Wireless Mic with Interchangeable Capsule

Shure's ULXD2/K8N Handheld Transmitter integrates seamlessly with your ULXD2 wireless mic system to deliver clear, uninterrupted 24-bit digital signal transmission over its entire 330-foot operating range. The transmitter comes with Shure's acclaimed K8N dualdyne interchangeable capsule, which kills proximity effect and smooths highs for superbly balanced vocal performances. With its easy-to-read LCD display, simple control menu, and multiple power options, the ULXD2/K8N Handheld Transmitter is a powerful, convenient option for use with your Shure ULX-D2 wireless system.

24 bits + encryption = exceptional sound and security

The ULX-D system captures your analog audio with 24-bit digital precision, resulting in superior detail and nuance, both live and in recorded audio. In addition, the transmitter communicates with your receiver under AES-256 digital encryption, which is the industry standard for protecting sensitive data.

Convenience wrapped in a rugged housing

The Shure ULXD2/K8N Handheld Transmitter has a machined aluminum body (only the battery compartment cover is plastic) and capsule cage, helping protect sensitive electronics from impact damage. The backlit LCD display features an easily navigable menu and controls, quickly letting you access the operating frequency, check battery remaining runtime, and select a group or channel. With the touch of one button, your ULXD2/K8N will immediately sync with your ULX-D2 wireless receiver for fast, easy setup.

Clear, detailed audio with your choice of capsules

The ULXD2/K8N comes with the stellar Shure KSM8 dualdyne dynamic mic capsule, which offers a massive sweet spot, ultra-smooth highs, and a lack of proximity effect that ensures amazingly well-balanced vocals. However, you can easily replace the K8N with one of nine other Shure capsules that work well with this transmitter, for varied sonic results. Contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer for more information on the available capsules for your ULXD2/K8N.

Power options to keep the show rolling

The Shure ULXD2/K8N Handheld Wireless Transmitter can be operated for up to 11 hours on two AA batteries. It can also be powered with the optional Shure SB900A lithium-ion rechargeable battery, providing up to 12 hours of continuous use between charges. The LCD display on the transmitter will show you how much runtime you have left in hours and minutes, so you never need to fear losing signal because of a dead battery.

Shure ULXD2/K8N Handheld Wireless Transmitter Features:

  • 24-bit audio and digital encryption ensure high-quality, secure signal transmission
  • Backlit LCD with easy-to-navigate menu and controls lets you make changes quickly
  • Selectable display mode showing group/channel, frequency, or battery runtime
  • 330-foot line-of-sight operating range; great for small to large venues or houses of worship
  • Rugged, machined aluminum housing provides superior durability for years of great performance
  • K8N dualdyne mic capsule prevents proximity effect and smooths highs for well-balanced vocals
  • Interchangeable mic capsules (sold separately) allow you to choose the best sound for any vocalist
  • Can be powered by 2 AA batteries or the optional Shure SB900A lithium-ion rechargeable battery

Worry-free Wireless!

You can be confident that these systems will work within the FCC's currently permitted frequency/power ranges. Please be aware that systems operating in the 617-652 MHz or 663-698 MHz range are now operating outside the FCC's new guidelines.
