M2 Wireless In-Ear Monitor System—Introduction
Thank you for buying the Audio-Technica M2 Wireless In-Ear Monitor System.
This feature-rich in-ear monitor system is designed to provide you with
comfortable high-fidelity sound on stage.
The M2 is a frequency-agile in-ear monitor system designed to make stage
monitoring more effective, comfortable, portable, and intelligible. The M2R
Stereo Receiver allows the user to create and control his/her own mix on stage
with Personal Mix Control that offers independent control of volume and mix at
the receiver. The M2T Stereo Transmitter offers two ¼”/XLR combo input

connectors into which users can directly connect instruments, microphones or
other line-level and mic-level inputs (from a mixing console, for example). The
EP3 earphones are equipped with a proprietary Audio-Technica dynamic driver
offering a full frequency response and richly detailed high-fidelity sound. The
clean, articulate mix allows performers to hear themselves at comfortable SPLs.
The earphones come with three sizes of rubber flexible eartips and a universal-fit
foam tip for a custom fit, increased isolation and long-wearing listening comfort.
Note: M2 “L” Band receivers must be used only with “L” Band transmitters; the
same holds true for M2 “M” Band receivers and transmitters. For multiplechannel applications, as many as eight systems may be used together per
frequency band.
