Toa Electronics WS-5325M-AM Wireless Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone System (M1: 506 to 538 MHz)

The WS-5325M-AM from TOA is a professional UHF wireless lavalier microphone system designed for reliable speech and general-purpose sound reinforcement applications. The system combines the WM-5325-AM bodypack wireless microphone transmitter and YP-M5310 omnidirectional lavalier with the WT-5810-AM diversity desktop wireless receiver, delivering stable hands-free wireless performance for venues ranging from conference rooms and houses of worship to multi-purpose halls and auditoriums.

The lightweight and ergonomic WM-5325-AM bodypack transmitter features a locking 3.5mm input connector, allowing it to work with a wide variety of lavalier and headset microphones. This system configuration includes a discreet YP-M5310 electret-condenser lavalier microphone with a forgiving omnidirectional pickup pattern that allows for a wide variety of placement options for presenters and performers. Power for the transmitter is supplied by either a single AA battery or an optional WB-2000 Ni-MH rechargeable battery. When used with the optional BC-5000-2 battery charger and WB-2000 battery, up to approximately 13 hours of continuous operation is available.

The included WT-5810-AM receiver is a PLL-synthesizer controlled, double superheterodyne diversity tuner designed for dependable UHF wireless operation. Space diversity operation automatically selects the stronger of two antenna signals for processing, helping to maintain consistent reception. A built-in compander noise-reduction circuit minimizes the influence of ambient RF noise, while automatic frequency scanning simplifies setup. The system supports operation of up to 16 simultaneous receivers.

Front-panel indicators on the receiver provide clear visual status of RF reception, transmitter battery condition, and AF peak levels. User controls include channel selection keys with channel number display, a 7-step adjustable squelch, RF check function, and output volume control. Rear-panel connections include balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4" audio outputs, along with an audio mixing input and output for flexible system integration. The receiver features a compact, portable desktop design and is powered via an included AC adapter.
