The Shure AD2/KSM8B-X55 uses the KSM8 Dualdyne capsule in a black finish. It is a dual-diaphragm dynamic cardioid capsule that minimizes proximity effect, so the vocal tone stays consistent as the performer moves closer to or further from the mic.
The AD2/KSM8B-X55 tunes the X55 band, 941 to 960 MHz. It must be paired with an Axient Digital receiver that covers the same band, and wireless use in this range is subject to local regulation.
The only difference is the capsule finish. The AD2/KSM8B has a black KSM8 Dualdyne capsule and the AD2/KSM8N has a nickel one; the capsule design, transmitter body and RF performance are identical.
The AD2/KSM8B-X55 has a maximum operating range of about 100 m (328 ft) line of sight, with selectable RF output power of 2, 10 or 35 mW and selectable latency of 2 to 2.9 ms.
The AD2/KSM8B-X55 runs about 8 hours on the 2 included AA alkaline batteries, or about 9 hours on the optional Shure SB900A lithium-ion rechargeable battery, which also supports networked intelligent charging.
