01
Before the shortlist
The first four answers do most of the work
A useful ranking starts only after the constraints specific to this market are clear.
- 01
How many channels must operate simultaneously, and what other wireless systems share every venue?
- 02
Which legal frequency ranges and exact regional hardware variants are available where the system will operate?
- 03
Which handheld, bodypack, headset, lavalier, instrument and encrypted workflows must the family support?
- 04
Who will scan, coordinate, monitor, update, charge, label and troubleshoot the system before and during a show?

Market language
The terms a useful comparison should define
- Tuning band
- The frequencies an exact transmitter or receiver variant can tune; family names do not make different regional bands interchangeable
- Frequency coordination
- Selecting compatible operating frequencies around local television, other wireless systems, intermodulation risk and current rules
- Diversity
- Using more than one antenna or receive path to reduce some dropouts; implementation and antenna placement still control the result
- Encryption
- A supported audio privacy mode whose availability, key handling, latency and channel capacity can depend on the exact system and configuration
