The nominal output of this receiver is 350 mV, which is approximately "consumer" line-level. It should work with the line input on any typical consumer equipment. Microphone level is much lower at about 2 mV.Age:Â 45-54

Answer:Â
Thank you for your inquiry. First, it is not real easy to get the peak light to illuminate. It takes a very high sound pressure level (SPL) to do so. Secondly, I believe that your Logitech System Z313 only has line level inputs (it's hard to determine from the documentation I found on the product, but most devices like this only have line level inputs). The output of the 200 series wireless system is microphone level and just not strong enough to drive a line level input. You may need to add a preamp to get this to work, but you should check with Logitech to ensure that the inputs are only line level.Age:Â 45-54

Can I buy a replacement switch (off, standby, on) for this handheld mike? The switch works, but the "stalk" broke off and I need to use a pen to slide it into position.

The 200 series is not sold with any type of mount for an acoustis guitar. We do sell the AT8444 guitar mount that may be used with several of our lavalier microphones. This mount slides over the lower side of the sound hole.Age:Â 45-54

I'm interested in purchasing the 200 series beltpack, but i need to see closeup pictures of the beltpack to determine if this will work for our user. I scoured the internet looking for a picture of this. The only is an undersized thumbnail that shows an outline of the receiver and beltpack, but doesn't show any useful detail whatsoever.
Is there a manual somewhere that might have a closeup? Why are these things so difficult to find?
