(Click for a close-up)

Shure is now shipping the PA821 active antenna combiner, an innovative new solution that improves both sonic performance and functionality for those creating the most sophisticated personal monitor set-ups. Designed by Shure engineers to improve RF performance by reducing intermodulation distortion, the PA821 active antenna combiner is an eight-input, one-output device compatible with Shure PSM 700, PSM 600, and PSM 400 personal monitor systems.

Capable of combining the output of up to eight PSM wireless transmitters with a single antenna, the wideband (470 MHz-870 MHz) PA821 reduces onstage "antenna farm" clutter, and offers increased range when used with Shure's new PA805WB directional antenna. Occupying only a single rackspace, the unit also comes outfitted with a front panel expansion port to allow for daisy-chaining to additional combiners. Both an auto-sensing universal power supply and AC cables are included for worldwide use.

The PA821 active antenna combiner and PA805WB directional antenna have suggested retail prices of $4983.34 and $360.00 respectively. Both are available for immediate shipment.
