Shure BLX288E/SM58-H8E

Shure BLX288E/SM58-H8E — Dual Wireless Vocal System with Two SM58 Capsules

The Shure BLX288E/SM58-H8E pairs two SM58 vocal microphones with a dual-channel BLX88 receiver in one ready-to-perform package. Built for bands, duos, karaoke hosts, and houses of worship, this system delivers the warm vocal tone the SM58 is famous for — now without the cable. Operating on the H8E UHF frequency band (518–542 MHz), this model provides a stable signal across most of Europe. To get started, simply plug in the included PS24 power supply and drop two AA cells into each transmitter. Using QuickScan, it finds the cleanest open frequency in seconds.

What Makes This Wireless Bundle Stand Out

Few wireless bundles ship with two genuine SM58 capsules — the industry-standard dynamic vocal mic used on stages worldwide. The BLX2 handheld transmitter combines that proven capsule with Shure's BLX wireless engine, giving performers the same vocal character they trust in a wired rig plus up to 100 m of wireless freedom. Both transmitters are managed by the BLX88 dual receiver, which reduces cable runs compared to using two separate single-channel systems and keeps your setup tidy.

Wireless Performance and Audio Specs

Within the H8E band (518–542 MHz UHF), the system can typically run up to 12 compatible channels at once. Audio reproduction spans 35 Hz to 20 kHz, capturing the full range from a voice's body to its airy top end.

• System Type: UHF dual wireless — stable transmission with low interference in most venues
• Frequency Band: 518–542 MHz (H8E) — license-friendly European UHF allocation
• Expect detailed sound across 35 Hz – 20 kHz, which means vocals come through with clarity and presence during every performance.
• Operating Range: up to 100 m line-of-sight — covers most stages, clubs, and houses of worship
• Each transmitter runs up to 14 hours on a single pair of AA cells — enough for a full evening without a battery swap
• Receiver: BLX88 dual-channel, non-rackmount chassis — both mics run from one compact unit

Who Should Buy the BLX288E/SM58-H8E

This model is the right choice for vocal duos, bands with two front-person singers, karaoke nights, mobile DJs, and small-to-mid churches that need two reliable wireless mics running at once. Performers stepping up from entry-level wireless gear will appreciate the SM58's familiar feedback-resistant cardioid pattern and proven stage durability.
