Samson Concert 288 Presentation Wireless set

Dual-Channel Wireless Freedom for Presenters and Performers

The Samson Concert 288 Presentation is a dual-channel UHF wireless headset system designed for presenters, educators, and performers who demand reliable hands-free operation. It enables two users to perform simultaneously without interference, pairing a CR288 half-rack receiver with two beltpack transmitters and providing a selection between headset or lavalier microphones. Suited to houses of worship, corporate events, educational lectures, and Q&A panels, this model delivers professional-grade wireless audio in a rackmountable format.

What Sets the Concert 288 Presentation Apart

True diversity reception with automatic mute reduces dropouts and background noise when it matters most. With both HS5 headset microphones and LM5 lavalier microphones included — four microphones in total — you can change configurations for any application without needing extra accessories.
