The LD Systems MAUI 5 GO 100 battery-powered column PA and U508 HHD handheld wireless microphone system are worth considering. They cover the PA and microphone roles, but check connections and the wireless system’s frequency band before buying.
The MAUI 5 GO 100 is a battery-powered column PA system, listed at a best new price of £645. It’s the relevant starting point if you want a PA that can run without mains power; check its battery runtime and suitability for your audience size before committing.
The U508 HHD is a single handheld dynamic microphone wireless system, listed at £319. For a proposed setup with the MAUI, confirm the receiver’s output connections, the PA’s inputs and any cable needed between them. Also check that the frequency band is suitable and legal to use where you’ll be performing.
The WS100BNC10 is a 10m BNC-to-BNC antenna cable, listed at £32—not an audio cable for connecting the microphone receiver to the PA. Only add it if your antenna arrangement needs it and the connections are compatible.
