Saramonic announces Blink500 B2+ wireless microphone

Saramonic has announced a new wireless microphone system marketed to content creators who need versatility.

The Blink500 B2+ system features a receiver and two wireless microphones that connect via a 2.4 GHz wireless band. The kit includes a USB-C adapter, Lightning adapter, a 3.5 mm TRS cable, and a 3.5 mm TRRS cable to connect the receiver to a variety of devices like iPhones, computers, and cameras.

The system is rated for 20 hours of use on a single charge with the case providing enough juice for a full charge. The kit is also capable of real-time playback monitoring, and the receiver has a tiny built-in OLED monitor for relaying some system information.

Both wireless mics include noise reduction and can broadcast up to 150 meters, per Saramonic. According to Saramonic, the mics each have a 6 mm condenser that records at a frequency range of 20-20,000 Hz with a 48K 24-bit sampling rate. The microphones can be attached via either a back clip or a magnet system.

The Blink500 B2+ is priced at $129 in the United States, £135.95 in the United Kingdom, and €121.88 in Europe. The microphone system can be purchased at Saramonic's website (U.S. here, U.K. here).
