Building on the success of the renowned CP Beam helical and CP Architectural installation antennas, the new CP Stage is a rugged, IP-rated, high-performance circularly polarised antenna designed to deliver reliable wireless audio for in-ear monitor transmitters and wireless microphone systems.

The worlds most reliable antenna for wireless mics and IEMs RF Venue CP Stage helical antenna. No dropout for your performance

Walpole, MA – January 9, 2025 – RF Venue, a leader in professional wireless audio solutions, has unveiled its latest innovation: the CP Stage antenna. Designed to address the growing demands of wireless audio applications, the CP Stage promises a discreet, superior performance for wireless in-ear monitors (IEMs) and microphones, making it a valuable addition for live sound professionals.

Chris Regan, Chief Innovation Officer at RF Venue, emphasises that traditional “paddle” antennas no longer meet the needs of modern audio setups. The CP Stage builds on the success of the company’s CP Beam and CP Architectural antennas, offering a rugged, weather-resistant design ideal for both touring and permanent installations. Whether rain or shine, the CP Stage excels at capturing wireless microphone signals, ensuring a seamless experience for live performances.

“Traditional ‘paddle’ antennas are no longer sufficient for today’s demanding wireless audio applications,” says Chris Regan. “The CP Stage builds on the success of our renowned CP Beam helical and CP Architectural installation antenna in an IP-rated and rugged yet affordable design. It’s ideal for wireless IEMs and, as a diversity pair, excels at capturing wireless microphone signals, rain or shine, night after night.”

The CP Stage antenna is housed in a low-profile, durable enclosure that easily mounts to microphone stands, making it particularly well-suited for touring bands and portable setups. Its IP-rated weather resistance also makes it an excellent choice for fixed outdoor installations, offering flexibility across a range of environments.

“It’s everything I need it to be,” says Drew Ganter, monitor engineer for the legendary band Blue Öyster Cult, who has been an early adopter of the CP Stage. “The CP Stage continues the tradition of reliability I’ve come to expect from RF Venue products.”

The CP Stage employs circularly polarised (CP) technology, which transmits and receives signals in a 360º pattern, ensuring stable communication regardless of performer movement. This makes it an ideal solution for live sound professionals managing complex wireless IEM systems. The antenna covers a wide frequency range (470-928 MHz) and features a compact 25.4cm x 30.5cm x 2.5cm design, which is easy to conceal on stage.

The CP Stage antenna is now available for purchase, both individually and in convenient multichannel upgrade packs through New Zealand distributor JPRO. More product info on CP Stage can be found here.
