Product Description
Audio-Technica COMB8CP-STAGE 8-Channel IEM Pack with CP Stage Antenna
Overview
RF Venue's COMB8CP-STAGE In Ear Monitor (IEM) package has everything you need to upgrade the performance and reliability of your current 8-channel IEM system.
Designed for easy integration, this system enables users to configure up to 8 channels of wireless in-ear monitors (IEM system sold separately) with remarkable ease and technical sophistication. The package eliminates complex RF configuration requirements, offering a plug-and-play approach that ensures you get clean, low-noise radio frequency transmission with no technical degree required!
The COMBINE8 active IEM transmitter combiner represents the core innovation of this system, consolidating signals from up to eight transmitters into a single, high-performance antenna. By reducing the number of antenna sources, the system significantly minimizes intermodulation distortion and enhances overall reliability. The package includes the CP Stage Antenna, the COMBINE8 transmitter, a DC Octopus power cable capable of powering eight compatible transmitters, and necessary coaxial cable interconnects, creating a turnkey solution for professional audio engineers and live performance professionals seeking streamlined, high-quality wireless monitoring equipment.
The CP Stage is a compact, circularly polarized antenna engineered for in-ear monitor transmitters and wireless microphone systems. Designed to enhance signal reliability, this antenna builds upon the success of previous CP series models, offering high performance in a portable package suitable for touring musicians and other professional audio applications.
Housed in a lightweight, weather-resistant enclosure with an IP44 rating, the CP Stage provides versatile mounting options, easily connecting to microphone stands for secure signal transmission. Its low-profile circularly polarized element delivers superior signal quality when compared to traditional paddle or fin antennas, ensuring rock-solid audio performance for live performers. The antenna's robust construction makes it equally suitable for portable use and permanent outdoor installations, addressing the critical need for dependable wireless audio transmission in challenging performance environments.
Features
- Built for Better IEMs: Unreliable IEMs are a disaster for live performers. Dropouts and audible "hits" are a distraction and ruin confidence on stage. The CP Stage is built to make your band's IEM rig crystal clear so you can focus on what matters- your performance.
- Circular Polarization: unlike "paddle" or "fin" antennas with , the CP Stage features a low profile circularly polarized element that delivers optimal signal to in-ear monitor bodypacks and wireless microphones. If you're using paddle antennas, swap them out for the CP Stage to see and hear the difference in your IEM system.
- Ruggedized IP-Rated Enclosure: built to withstand permanent outdoor installation and the abuse of global tours and flypacks, the CP Stage will remain protected in case of weather, mic stand falls or other mishaps on the road.
