It is well suited for audio applications such as music performances, theater, rehearsals, broadcasts, presentations, houses of worship, and more.
The U505.1 IEM includes a 1 RU, 1/2 rack U500 IEM wireless transmitter with its rackmount kit and a U500 IEM bodypack receiver ready to accept the earphones of your choice.

- Use the 3-band EQ with parametric mids and the switchable limiter to keep sudden peaks at bay and ensure that your mix sounds exactly the way you like it.
- Choose between Stereo, Focus, or Mono monitoring modes. In Mono mode, the two L/R channels are summed. In Stereo mode, the balance between the L/R channels can be adjusted. In Focus mode, the L/R channels are played back in the center and the balance between the two channels can be adjusted directly on the pocket receiver.
