Introduction / System Features
Congratulations on purchasing the Samson CR277 Dual Microphone Wireless System!
The CR277 system is the perfect solution for any application requiring two, high
quality, wireless microphones in a compact package. The system features the CR277
dual channel, diversity receiver including dual antennas, vivid RF meters and Peak
indicators for each channel, plus individual and mixed balanced outputs jacks. Also
included are two HT7 handheld microphone transmitters fitted with the Samson Q7
dynamic microphone element. The Q7 produces a robust and articulate sound thanks
to its extended frequency response and its cardioid pick-up pattern greatly reduces
the chance of feedback. With the CR277 system, you’ll have great sound quality
with clear reception and the ability to walk freely around your venue. For live sound,
karaoke, school, conferences, and Houses of Worship the CR277 is an ideal solution for
dual channel wireless microphones providing outstanding performance and reliably.
Although this product is designed for easy operation, we suggest you first take some
time to go through these pages so you can fully understand how we’ve implemented a
number of unique features. Your wireless system consists of three components— two
microphone transmitters and a dual channel receiver, which must be tuned to the
same channels (that is, the same radio frequency) in order to operate correctly.
The Samson Concert Series system you have purchased operates in the HDTV free UHF
frequency range and contains a CR277 dual channel receiver and two of our HT7 hand-
held microphone transmitters with the Samson Q7 dynamic capsule.
In this manual, you’ll find a detailed description of the features of the Concert
Series Wireless system, as well as a guided tour through all components, step-by-
step instructions for setting up your system, wiring diagrams and tables, and full
specifications. If your Concert Series system was purchased in the United States, you’ll
also find a warranty card enclosed—don’t forget to fill it out and mail it! This will
enable you to receive online technical support and will allow us to send you updated
information about this and other Samson products in the future. Also, be sure to
check out our website (www.samsontech.com) for complete information about our full
product line.
SPECIAL NOTE for U.S. purchasers: Should your Concert Series Wireless system ever
require servicing, a Return Authorization number (RA) is necessary. Without this
number, the unit will not be accepted. If your Concert SeriesWireless system was

Authorization number prior to shipping your unit. If possible, return the unit in its
