Q: 1. Can I pair two receivers with a single transmitter? I want one receiver at the front of the room for the PA, and the other near the rear of the room for the video camera so I don't have to run cables.

A: We have not tested the Samson XPD2 wireless system using two receivers. It may not work so well since the receiver is built into a USB stick and needs to be powered by USB, which isn't a good option for use with a camera and you could have delay with the audio going to the camera. If you do need to send the audio from the PA to the camera wirelessly, you may want to use a separate wireless system that accepts line level input signal like the Wi Digital Wi AudioStream Pro AV Portable Digital Wireless Lavalier System (B&H # WIASPAV). We do have other options if you want to use a different wireless mic system with a headset mic and two receivers. Please contact our pro audio department by phone or through live chat on the website and we can assist you to find the best option for your needs.

Q: 2. When connected via USB, is this mic selectable as an audio source in video software like OBS, Vmix, or Wirecast?

A: You would be able to select this as a source in live stream software.

Q: 3. Why choose one frequency band over the other?

A: If you already have one of this system in Band K, then you would get your 2nd system in Band D to avoid the possibility of interference with your first system. If you do not already have one of these systems then it does not matter which frequency band you choose.

Q: 4. how do I fit the headset to my head? The mic tip ends up in my mouth and I don't want to bend it too much to break.

Q: 9. Under diversity it says "Antenna Diversity, True Diversity" but it has just two antennas. So it is just true diversity when one channel is in use?

A: True diversity, as described with the Samson Concert 288 Presentation Dual-Channel Wireless Microphone System with 2 Headset Mics & 2 Lav Mics, infers that a receiver has dual antennae as well as dual internal chips to assess and choose the stronger antenna reception of an incoming signal. A dual channel receiver with independent internal diversity chips can still be considered true diversity for this reason.

Q: 10. Is it possible to use a speaker for a live program while simultaneously capturing audio for a live stream?

A: Yes. The receiver has a headphone output jack, that could be connected to a speaker, tho it is low level and would require additional amplification.. Receiver Maximum Audio Output Level Analog 9 dBu Headphone Output 22 mW into 16 or 32 Ohms Operating Voltage 5 VDC
