Features

The DWZ series is a digital wireless system that combines Sony’s consistently developed superior audio technology, highly reliable wireless technology, and state-of-the-art digital signal processing technology. Using an unlicensed 2.4 GHz band, the system provides wide-range functionality with simple, user-friendly operability. By providing a package that is optimized for specific usage environments, the system offers a wireless solution to users ranging from those inexperienced with wireless systems to seasoned professionals.
Superb audio quality
By transmitting audio signals via 24-bit high-quality linear PCM digital transmission (available only when the RF mode is set to Narrow Mode (NARROW)), without signal compression, decompression, or similar processing, the system provides superb audio quality and high-bandwidth transmissions that approach that of wired microphones.
High reliability
By allowing you to select from two RF modes based on your intended use and incorporating Sony’s unique data processing technology, the system provides highly­reliable wireless transmission in wireless LAN environments. In addition, the two RF modes each consist of six channels, allowing you to select the appropriate RF mode and channel according to your intended purpose. The receiver is equipped with two antennas with the antenna with the best reception status selected automatically via space diversity, providing stable reception with minimized audio breakup and noise occurrences. Highly confidential transmissions are also possible using the 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard).
