"No-Nonsense Wireless Mic...Just shut up and buy it!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
If it doesn't break, I'll keep it and use it. It does exactly what I bought it for.
Sound
Compared to the Nady and TOA systems these are replacing, this thing is great! Clarity is excellent and range is outstanding. No hiss!
Features
Came with Guitar cord - won't use it often, but it's there when you need it. Also works great. Side panels are not installed, which is nice. The only thing I'd like them to add is the clip to hold 2 units together. A nice touch is the adjustment tools which come with the unit.
Quality
Clean layout, well built, great sound, nothing more needs to be said.
Value
Compared to other units I have used, some costing 4 times as much, this unit is a slam-dunk. While it doesn't have some of the bells and whistles, like frequency readout, you rarely need that stuff anyway. Only thing that would make it a better value would be switchable channels, but at this price, who's complaining?
The Wow Factor
Don't know what's sexy about a wireless mic that just works great, but if you need one that won't set you back a fortune, this is it!
