Electro-Voice RE3-RE520-5L Handheld UHF Wireless Microphone Set Capsule 488-524 MHz / Diversity Receiver

Description

The RE3-RE520-5L is a handheld UHF wireless microphone set that pairs a condenser RE520 supercardioid capsule with a robust transmitter and a diversity receiver. It delivers detailed, full and vivid vocal reproduction with a tight low end, natural midrange and clear high end. The system is designed around reliable RF performance in the 488-524 MHz band for consistent live use.

The RE520 capsule employs a premium condenser element and a supercardioid polar pattern to provide excellent acoustic isolation and improved feedback control. Its multi-stage pop filter and selectable high-pass filter reduce breath noise, plosives and unwanted low-frequency content. The thread-on head design supports common interchangeable microphone head coupling for flexible stage setups.

RF performance is simplified by the RE3 platform – the transmitter offers selectable output power levels and a sync function for rapid frequency setup. The diversity receiver supports clear frequency scanning and up to 36 MHz tuning bandwidth in the supported band to locate clean channels. Transmit power options and wide tuning range help maintain stable links in challenging RF environments.

Connectivity and control are straightforward – the receiver provides diversity reception and an easy-to-read LCD for status and frequency readouts. The transmitter/receiver sync function links devices quickly to reduce setup time and frequency conflicts. The handheld body and common threaded coupling ensure compatibility with industry-standard mic stands and mounts.

Typical applications include live vocal performance, corporate presentations and houses of worship where vocal clarity and feedback rejection are essential. The sonic balance and detailed high end help vocals sit clearly in a mix without sounding harsh while the supercardioid pattern limits stage bleed. The fast scan and sync workflow accelerates multi-channel deployments in rental and production environments.

Construction emphasizes reliability and straightforward integration – the handheld transmitter features a robust metal body and common threaded coupling for secure head mounting. The receiver platform supports integration into installed racks and on-stage systems via standard control and antenna connections. Overall, the set provides a practical balance of sonic quality, RF stability and ease of operation for live sound professionals.
