Shure BLX1288/W85 Dual-Channel Wireless Combo Lavalier & Handheld Microphone System

The Shure BLX1288/W85-H10 is a wireless microphone package with two independent channels. It pairs the trusted SM58 handheld transmitter with the discreet WL185 lavalier, giving you the freedom to switch between stage-friendly vocals and hands-free speech without changing receivers.

Setup is simple. Power on the receiver, press QuickScan, and the unit finds a clear frequency in seconds. Once the handheld or bodypack transmitter is synced, you can move as far as 300 feet from the receiver while the signal stays clean and stable.

The system runs up to 14 hours on two AA batteries, so a full day of workshops, worship services, or back-to-back gigs can pass without a battery swap. The rugged yet light transmitter housings slip easily into a presenter’s pocket or an entertainer’s travel bag, and the half-rack receiver fits neatly into portable rigs or installed racks.

This flexibility makes the BLX1288/W85-H10 a practical choice for corporate presenters, educators, wedding officiants, and small venue performers who need reliable sound and the option to use either a lavalier or a handheld microphone at any moment.
