Description
AKG Perception Wireless 45 Vocal Set BD A
The AKG Perception Wireless 45 delivers professional-grade wireless performance in a compact, lightweight system ideal for studio tracking and remote recording sessions. The HT 45 handheld transmitter sits comfortably in your hand with balanced weight distribution, while the SR 45 receiver mounts discreetly on any standard microphone stand via the included SA 45 stand adapter. This is a straightforward, reliable wireless vocal solution built for home studios, producers tracking live vocalists, and engineers who need transparent audio capture without complexity.
Audio Performance & Transmission
The system operates across the 500–560 MHz frequency range with FM modulation, providing 8 selectable carrier frequencies to avoid interference in RF environments with multiple wireless devices. Audio bandwidth of 70–20,000 Hz on the transmitter preserves vocal clarity, presence, and articulation in your recordings, while the receiver maintains a signal-to-noise ratio of 105 dB(A) and 0.8% THD at 1 kHz for transparent, clean vocal takes throughout your session.
Transmitter & System Design
The HT 45 handheld transmitter runs on a single AA battery with 10-hour battery life, eliminating power concerns during extended tracking sessions. The integrated dynamic microphone features a cardioid polar pattern and built-in wind and pop filter, reducing handling noise and breath artifacts that compromise vocal recordings. The SR 45 receiver offers both balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4" audio outputs with adjustable level control, integrating seamlessly into any mixing console, audio interface, or preamp setup for direct mixing-chain integration.
