AKG SR470 BD8 Professional Wireless Stationary Receiver

AKG SR470 BD8 Professional Wireless Stationary Receiver

The AKG SR470 BD8 is a rack-mount wireless receiver built for studio and production environments where RF stability and transparent audio delivery are essential. Its compact half-rack metal housing and intuitive front panel fit seamlessly into a console-side rack setup, studio cart, or mobile recording rig. This stationary receiver delivers the RF performance and audio fidelity needed to capture clean wireless vocals, instruments, and dialogue without compromising mix transparency or introducing phase artifacts.

RF Performance & Frequency Coordination

Operating across the 570.1 to 600.5 MHz Band 8 range, the SR470 BD8 offers 1200 selectable frequencies across a 30 MHz tuning span, letting you coordinate multiple wireless systems in the same session without interference. Space diversity tuning and support for up to 48 wireless channels (16 within a single frequency band) provide the flexibility to run a full multitrack wireless setup, while the infrared sync feature speeds frequency coordination when deploying multiple units across tracking sessions or live recording situations.

Audio Fidelity in the Mix

The receiver achieves a 120 dB(A) signal-to-noise ratio with THD below 0.3% at 1 kHz, ensuring the wireless signal sits transparently in your mix with minimal noise floor coloration across the entire 35 to 20,000 Hz bandwidth. Sensitivity of 6 dBV / -100 dBm paired with AKG’s reference compander technology and built-in pilot tone system guarantees a clean, intelligible signal that captures vocals, instruments, and ambient sources with minimal artifacts.
