The overall design isn’t anything out of the ordinary for a wireless mic setup – a quality, handheld dynamic unidirectional microphone, transmitter and a receiver. The receiver is also designed to be stacked with another unit; so for bands with multiple vocalists, it can keep the clutter to a minimum. The receiver is pretty simple in its setup: 1/4” and XLR connections, level control, and two antennas.
Spec-wise, it runs in the 2.4GHZ range, meaning no interference from things like TV sets, remotes or Wi-Fi signals, and no “Spinal Tap”-esque radio interference to worry about!
It has excellent clarity and range. In a blind listening test, this unit blows away a “tethered” microphone. For the price of the unit we tested ($299 street) it’s one of those things a good singer/performer can easily add to their arsenal without breaking the bank, while getting a high quality sound in the process. There should be plenty of range from the back of the house to the receiver, even in most mid-sized venues.
Overall, it’s got state-of –the-art sound, a pretty decent price, and no connections and settings to worry about – just plug and sing!
