The Shure BLX88 is a dual-channel tabletop wireless receiver compatible with two BLX1 bodypack or BLX2 handheld transmitters. Compact and lightweight, it houses internal antennas, and is ideal for portable use.

The BLX88 features one-touch QuickScan frequency selection to quickly search 123 available frequencies and locate a clean RF channel in case of interference. It employs microprocessor-controlled diversity technology to reduce dropouts. BLX systems allow up to 12 mic channels to operate simultaneously in each frequency band, at a range up to 300'.

Located on the front panel, two LED displays show the RF frequency groups and channels, while four LED status indicators inform you when the system is ready to operate and alert you if your audio is clipping. The receiver offers two 1/4" and two XLR outputs for connectivity to PA systems and mixing boards.
