Available with your choice of the legendary SM58 or premium Beta58A microphone capsule, this system allows you to run up to 12 wireless channels simultaneously—ideal for churches with multiple vocalists, speakers, and worship leaders. The BLX24R features a rugged half-rack receiver with removable antennas, one-touch QuickScan frequency selection for effortless setup, and an impressive 300-foot operating range that lets your team move freely throughout your sanctuary. With up to 14 hours of continuous use on just two AA batteries and rack-mount hardware included, the BLX24R is designed for churches and venues that want the reliability of Shure wireless performance in a clean, professional installation.
Professional Rack-Mount Wireless for Permanent Installations
When your church or venue has invested in a proper equipment rack, the Shure BLX24R wireless system gives you all the benefits of wireless freedom with the clean, organized look of a professional installation. The BLX4R receiver is a half-rack unit that mounts securely in your sound booth or tech area, keeping your wireless receivers organized and accessible while freeing up table space. The removable antennas can be positioned on the front of your rack for optimal signal reception, ensuring reliable performance throughout your worship space.
Why Churches Choose the BLX24R Rack-Mount System
Church sound teams consistently praise the BLX24R for its reliability during services and ease of use for volunteers. The rack-mount design means your receivers stay in one place—no more hunting for the tabletop receiver that someone moved or worrying about accidentally unplugging it during setup. Everything stays connected and ready to go week after week. The system’s one-touch QuickScan feature automatically finds the clearest available frequency, which means even your newest volunteers can get wireless microphones working quickly without technical training.
Customers report excellent sound quality that rivals their wired microphones, with many churches using these systems for years without any issues. The 300-foot operating range means pastors can walk throughout the sanctuary during their message, worship leaders can move across the entire platform, and guest speakers can present from anywhere without signal dropouts. Church audio volunteers especially appreciate that the rack-mount receiver has an LCD display showing detailed RF and audio metering, making it easy to monitor signal strength and adjust levels as needed.
Built for the Demands of Weekly Services
The BLX24R system handles the real-world challenges that churches face every Sunday. Whether you’re dealing with multiple wireless systems running simultaneously, varying skill levels among your sound team volunteers, or the need for microphones that can handle everything from quiet spoken prayers to energetic worship music, this system delivers consistent, professional performance. The 14-hour battery life means you can use these microphones for multiple services, rehearsals, and special events without constantly swapping batteries—many churches report changing batteries only once a month even with regular use.
Both the SM58 and Beta58A microphone capsules are legendary for their durability. They can handle being passed between multiple speakers during testimony time, used by children during Christmas programs, or dropped during setup without missing a beat. The microphones feature advanced shock mount systems that minimize handling noise, so you won’t hear loud thumps through your sound system when someone adjusts their grip or accidentally bumps the mic.
Expandable System That Grows With Your Ministry
Because you can run up to 12 BLX systems simultaneously in the same frequency band, you can start with one or two wireless microphones and expand as your worship team grows. Add wireless microphones for additional vocalists, a bodypack system for your worship pastor’s headset microphone, or lavalier systems for guest speakers—all working together without interference. The rack-mount design makes it easy to keep adding receivers to your equipment rack as your needs expand, maintaining a clean, professional look in your sound booth.
