The Swiff Audio WX501 Wireless System is the perfect add-on for guitarists who want to lose the cables but keep the sound. This simple, effective set consists of nothing more than a transmitter, a receiver, and a charging cable. Despite this simplicity, the system uses advanced 5.8GHz technology for a strong, stable, and uninterrupted signal. And with latency under 5ms, the signal stays crystal clear. The WX501 connects to source and PA through a standard 6.3mm jack socket, and is powered by its integrated rechargeable battery: Fully charged, the system runs for up to 5 hours. For easy portability, the transmitter and receiver click together to form one unit, and with just a single control for power on and off, this compact, straightforward wireless setup gives guitarists the freedom to move around on stage without being tied down by cables.
The Swiff Audio WX501 Wireless System can handle frequencies from 10Hz to 22kHz, so even the deepest bass comes through with plenty of punch. It arrives with the transmitter and receiver clipped together: The top section is the transmitter, and the bottom is the receiver. The transmitter plugs into a guitar and sends its signal to the receiver, which then connects to a mixing desk. Both units feature a swivelling jack plug for flexible positioning, and each has its own on/off button. LED displays on both devices show the battery level, making it easy to see when a recharge is needed: The USB split cable that is included in the scope of delivery can charge both devices at once.
This compact wireless system is aimed at guitarists looking for more freedom to move on stage – and a simple, intuitive solution to make it happen. With no extra controls, there's no complicated setup to worry about, and thanks to its unique design, with the transmitter and receiver clipping together for transport, there are also fewer components to lose. The Swiff Audio WX501 can also be expanded with up to four additional receivers, each picking up a single channel. That means several players can share the same setup for a clear, organised signal flow. And with USB charging, the band won't even need batteries.

All these products have proven their worth in countless settings – from stage and film sets to professional studios – and are aimed at musicians, performing artists, public speakers, and content creators.
For a solid signal, a guitarist will need a clear, direct line of sight between the transmitter and receiver, with as few large obstacles as possible in the way. Both units should also be at least 1.5 metres away from larger metal objects like walls or scaffolding: Because of the built-in lithium batteries, they shouldn't be placed near heat sources either. If the system isn't going to be used for a while, users should make sure to unplug the charging cable. Depending on which mode a musician or sound tech runs the system on, the Swiff Audio WX501 can transmit for eight to ten hours on a full charge. And with a signal-to-noise ratio of over 105dB and a distortion level of under 0.02%, it delivers high-quality audio, which is of course the most important thing of all.
