About Audix AP42 VX5-B

Take your live performances to the next level with the Audix Performance Series AP42 VX5-B Wireless System. This professional-grade wireless solution is engineered to eliminate the complexities of wireless audio while delivering clear, reliable, and versatile sound quality. Ideal for vocalists, musicians, performers, and presenters, this system is a testament to Audix's reputation for high-quality audio equipment.

The dual-channel R42 Receiver is the cornerstone of this system, featuring a sleek, contemporary design that is both rugged and rack-mountable for ease of integration into any setup. Its intuitive menus make operation straightforward, ensuring you can focus on your performance without technical distractions.

Paired with the receiver are two H60 Handheld Transmitters, each boasting a slimline, elegantly designed body that is compact and well-balanced for optimal comfort during extended use. These transmitters are encased in durable metal housing, ensuring they withstand the rigors of live performance. With a wide 64 MHz spectrum, compatibility with all Performance Series receivers, and modular interchangeable capsule assemblies, these transmitters offer unparalleled flexibility. The high-contrast LCD display provides essential information at a glance, including group, channel, and battery life, while the soft mute switch and 10-hour run time on AA batteries make them a reliable choice for any event.

At the heart of the system's vocal clarity is the VX5 Condenser Microphone, a premium electret condenser mic designed to deliver studio-quality sound on stage. Renowned for its smooth and accurate frequency response, the VX5 excels in environments from intimate acoustic sets to loud stages, thanks to its resistance to feedback and high sound pressure level handling without distortion. The supercardioid polar pattern ensures that vocals are isolated, cutting through the mix with precision.

The VX5's wide frequency range of 40 Hz - 16.5 kHz ensures a clean and natural sound, while the 14 mm gold vapor diaphragm and acoustically ported steel mesh grill with a multi-stage pop filter contribute to its exceptional transient response. With switches for a -10 dB pad and bass roll-off, the VX5 adapts to various performance demands. It's also suited for capturing a range of acoustic instruments, making it a versatile tool for both live stage and home studio recording.

Designed, assembled, and tested in the USA, the VX5 is a reflection of Audix's commitment to quality. Its precision die-cast zinc alloy body, durable black E-coat finish, and gold-plated XLR connector are all marks of a microphone built to last and perform at the highest standards.

Choose the Audix Performance Series AP42 VX5-B Wireless System for its wide frequency range of 554-586 MHz and the assurance of a product from a brand synonymous with excellence in audio technology. Elevate your audio experience with this durable, high-quality, and professional wireless system that promises to deliver reliable performance in any live setting.
