Shure BLX288/PG58 Dual-Channel Wireless Handheld Microphone System

The Shure BLX288/PG58-J11 is a wireless microphone system that provides two independent channels in one straightforward package. It pairs the BLX88 receiver with two PG58 handheld transmitters so vocalists, presenters, and event coordinators can move freely without cable clutter while keeping the natural sound quality that Shure is known for.

Setup is quick. Press the QuickScan button on the receiver and it automatically finds the clearest available frequency. Each handheld transmitter locks to that frequency with a single tap, minimizing dropouts and interference even in busy radio environments.

The system covers up to 300 feet of range, giving performers plenty of stage or floor space to work with in conference rooms, house-of-worship stages, and small to medium live music venues. Two AA batteries power each transmitter for up to 14 hours, long enough for rehearsals, sound checks, and a full evening show.

The PG58 capsule uses a cardioid pickup pattern that focuses on the voice and helps reject background noise, which keeps vocals clear in loud settings. Balanced XLR and unbalanced ¼-inch outputs on the receiver connect directly to mixers, powered speakers, or recording interfaces.

The receiver relies on antennas that sit inside the chassis, keeping the unit compact and easy to transport. Along with the lightweight yet durable construction and simple controls, the system suits touring musicians, mobile DJs, corporate AV teams, and rental inventories that need reliable gear they can set up in minutes.
