Congratulations on purchasing the Samson Stage 212 Dual Microphone Wireless System! The 
Stage 212 system is the perfect solution for any application requiring two high quality, wireless 
microphones in an easy to use package. Featuring simple operation, with 12 available channels 
and infrared set for the transmitter channel, the Stage 212 can quickly be up and running out 
of the box. The system includes the SR212 dual channel receiver with individual and mixed 
outputs. Also included are two VH212 handheld microphone transmitters. 

With the Stage 212 system, you’ll have great sound quality with clear reception, and the 
ability to walk freely around your venue. For any live sound application (karaoke, presentation, 
education, house of worship, etc.) the Stage 212 is the ideal tool for your dual-performer needs. 
The Stage 212 provides outstanding performance and reliability. 

Although this product is designed for intuitive operation, we suggest you take some time to 
go through these pages to learn how we’ve implemented a number of unique features, and to 
get step-by-step instructions for setting up your system. If your Stage 212 was purchased in 
the United States, you’ll also find a warranty card enclosed—please don’t forget to follow the 
instructions so that you can receive online technical support, and so that we can send you 
updated information about this and other Samson products. Also, be sure to check out our
