AKG Acoustics. A legendary brand.
We listened to the users and added many useful features
to the successful and well-known WMS 40 wireless
system. The new WMS 40 PRO wireless provides even
more flexibility and mobility for your gig.
Three selectable UHF frequencies for
interference-free reception.
Maximum transmission reliability even in difficult
environments. The system automatically selects the
antenna providing the best signal.
High Definition Audio Performance technology ensures
the legendary, realistic AKG sound and perfect audio

Transmitters operate for at least 30 hours off
a single AA size battery, saving cost,
maximizing dependability, and minimizing
onstage stress.
Two receivers in a single case minimize space
requirements and cost.

Highly versatile.
The WMS 40 PRO instrumental sets.
The convenient PT 40 PRO bodypack is the smallest and
lightest transmitter in its class. It can be used with
many AKG miniature microphones.
• The supplied MKG L cable allows an electric guitar or bass to be connected
directly to the transmitter.
• The Instrumental Set FLEXX system boasts selectable frequencies and
optimum transmission reliability.
• The Instrumental Set Dual system is your best choice for two-channel
applications.
• The Guitar/Vocal Set system includes a GB 40 guitarbug transmitter. To sing
and play with wireless mobility, all you need to do is connect the GB 40 to your
guitar or bass, put on the C 444 L head-worn microphone, and power up.
