The Audio-Technica ATW-R14 is a single-channel, true diversity UHF wireless receiver operating in the 736.65 MHz frequency range, designed as part of the Audio-Technica 3000 Series wireless system. It is engineered to provide reliable, clear audio transmission for professional vocal and instrumental applications in live performance, worship, presentation, and installed sound environments. The receiver utilizes true diversity reception, employing two internal antennas and two independent tuners to constantly select the strongest signal, minimizing dropouts and interference caused by multipath cancellation—a common issue in challenging RF environments where the signal reflects off walls and other surfaces. This makes the system highly robust for mobile use and fixed installations where consistent, uninterrupted audio is critical.

The ATW-R14 is designed for straightforward operation and integration. It features a clear, backlit LCD that displays real-time information such as selected frequency, audio level, RF signal strength, and diversity status. The front panel provides essential controls for power, group/channel selection, and audio output level. For easy frequency coordination, especially when using multiple systems, it offers multiple pre-tuned frequency groups that are compatible with corresponding Audio-Technica transmitters. The receiver outputs a balanced XLR line-level signal and an unbalanced 1/4-inch line-level signal simultaneously, providing flexible connectivity to mixing consoles, powered speakers, or recording devices. It can be powered via an included AC adapter or mounted in a compatible rack shelf for multi-channel systems.

Housed in a compact, half-rack width metal chassis, the receiver is built for both standalone desktop use and rack mounting with optional accessories. Its combination of reliable UHF diversity reception, clear status feedback, and flexible connectivity makes the ATW-R14 a dependable component for building a professional wireless microphone system that prioritizes audio clarity and operational stability.
