Audio-Technica, a longstanding leader in wireless and transducer technology,
is displaying its new M3 and M2 Wireless In-Ear Monitor Systems at InfoComm
2008. Designed for working musicians who want control over what they
hear onstage and are looking for a great alternative to traditional
wedge monitors, both systems feature A-T’s Personal Mix Control,
which offers independent control of volume and mix at the receiver.
In addition to providing the performer with complete freedom
of movement on stage, each system offers a lightweight body-pack stereo
receiver and a stereo transmitter equipped with two 1/4"/XLR combo
input connectors, into which users can connect line-level inputs from
a mixing console. Both the M3 and M2 systems are equipped with A-T EP3
earphones that offer a proprietary Audio-Technica dynamic driver for
detailed high-fidelity sound, allowing performers to hear themselves
at comfortable SPL’s. The EP3 earphones come with three sizes
of rubber flexible eartips and a universal-fit foam tip for a custom
fit, increased isolation and long-wearing listening comfort without
ear fatigue.
The ongoing development and expansion of Audio-Technica’s
line of wireless products is based on extensive in-the-field research
and user input, further emphasizing Audio-Technica’s commitment
