MAP: $349 USD

The CP Stage is a compact, ruggedized, circularly polarized antenna designed for in-ear monitor transmitters and wireless microphone systems. Building on the success of the CP Beam and CP Architectural antennas, the CP Stage offers high performance and reliability in a portable package, making it ideal for touring and band fly packs.

Housed in a lightweight yet durable IP-rated 10 x 12 x 1" weather-resistant enclosure, the CP Stage is suitable for both portable use and permanent outdoor installation. The antenna is easily connected to a microphone stand mount or wall-mounted bracket, providing a secure connection to boost signal quality for both in-ear monitors and microphones wherever you need it - rain or shine.

Key Features & Benefits

Built for Better IEMs Unreliable IEMs are a disaster for live performers. The CP Stage out performs paddle antennas. Circular polarization provides a consistent signal to IEM body packs regardless of performer orientation.

Circular Polarization Unlike "paddle" or "fin" antennas, CP Stage features a low profile circularly polarized element that delivers optimal 360º signal for IEM bodypacks and wireless microphones.

Ruggedized IP-Rated Enclosure Built to withstand permanent outdoor installation and the abuse of global tours and flypacks, the CP Stage will remain protected in case of weather, mic stand falls or other mishaps on the road. And ...

Most Common Questions Asked

How is the CP Stage different from the CP Beam?

The CP Beam is our premium CP antenna for large venues. It offers a more focused signal pattern with higher gain in a larger overall size. The CP Stage has a wider pattern with lower gain, in a smaller, robust (IP Rated) package - useful in a wide range of locations.

Why is it better than paddles?

Circular polarization provides a consistent signal to IEM body packs (or mics) regardless of performer orientation, unlike paddles.
