Shure SLXD24+/B87A Digital Wireless Handheld System with Beta 87A Condenser Capsule (G66 Band)
The condenser option in the SLXD24+ handheld line. Where the dynamic capsules are about robustness, the Beta 87A is about detail: bright, sparkling accuracy and a vocal that sits up front without being pushed there.

Digital predictive switching diversity maintains a strong signal in poor RF environments, most regions offer 32 available channels per frequency band, and the receiver supports third-party control devices from AMX, Crestron and others.
The SLXD24+/B87A is the SLX-D+ single channel handheld fitted with a condenser capsule instead of a dynamic one. If you have been choosing between the SM58 and Beta 58A versions and wishing for more detail than either, this is the answer.
The Beta 87A condenser capsule
The Beta 87A delivers studio-grade clarity, with bright, sparkling accuracy and crisp, up-front presence. On a controlled stage or in a broadcast or theatre setting it gives a vocal the kind of air that a dynamic capsule has to be EQ'd towards.
Wireless that stays out of the way
Transparent 24-bit digital audio, an extended 20Hz-20kHz frequency range and an expansive 118dB dynamic range mean the transmission path is not the limiting factor. Digital predictive switching diversity maintains a strong signal even in poor RF environments, which is the other half of keeping a detailed capsule sounding detailed.
SLXD4+ receiver
A space-saving half-rackmount unit with a wide 138MHz tuning range, deployable in practically any RF environment regardless of how crowded it is. Most regions provide 32 available channels per frequency band.
Control and integration
ShowLink Ease gives real-time wireless remote control and monitoring of the SLXD2+ transmitter, so interference can be managed and channels scanned mid-show. IR scan and synchronisation handle pairing in seconds, and the receiver works with a wide array of third-party control devices from AMX, Crestron and others.
Built like a working microphone
Rugged metal construction on the SLXD2+ handheld keeps the condenser capsule protected in a working environment.
Supplied in the G66 frequency band.
