Durable Design and Long Battery Life

Built for reliability and longevity, the SLXD2/K8B features a lightweight yet durable aluminum housing. It provides up to 8 hours of continuous operation using two AA batteries. For a more sustainable option, it is also compatible with the SB903 rechargeable battery pack (sold separately), offering precise power metering displayed in hours and minutes on the transmitter's LCD screen.

The SLXD2/K8B features an interchangeable capsule design, allowing users to replace the KSM8 capsule with other Shure capsules to suit specific application needs. Compatible options include the SM58, Beta 87A, and Beta 58A capsules. The KSM8's grille is hardened and dent-resistant, lined with hydrophobic woven fabric to effectively reject moisture and plosives.

User-Friendly Operation

The transmitter syncs effortlessly with a wireless receiver via infrared at the touch of a button. An easy-to-read LCD screen displays crucial information, and the selectable 1/10mW RF output power option enhances either the transmitter's range or the number of mics operating simultaneously.

Convenient Power Management

For those using rechargeable power, the SB903 lithium-ion battery offers zero memory effect and precise power management. The SBC203 dual-battery charging station charges two SB903 batteries simultaneously, fitting the external contacts on the transmitter so there is no need to remove the batteries for charging.
