"AMAZING...BUY ONE"

Feature:
I like the little screw drivers for adjusting squlech and gain (on bodypack)and the rackmount kit is cool although I probably won't be using it.

Quality:
The receiver feels like you could crush it in your hands but it holds up...I don't plan to drop it but I'm sure that if you did...the lightness of it would PREVENT damage. The range on this thing is absolutly amazing! My brother and I went to my church to set this up (not important why my amp was there) and I stated playing and walking around the church...I went downstairs and all around (the church has VERY thick brick walls) then I went outside and across the street to get the pastors son (also the church drummer) and played something I knew my brother would know (only once) came back and asked him if her heard...he said yes...I WAS IN THE PASTOR'S GARAGE ACROSS THE STREET and he heard....it's amazing (it's alot further than it sounds) how delayed it mgiht have been...I dunno...but he said I never sputtered or crackled. The batteries only lasted about 2 hours (rightfully so).

Value:
BUY IT....it's cheap and works AWESOMELY

Desirability:
I've wanted this thing ever since I saw it!

Sound:
I use this system for bass and I like to go loooowwww (drop A) and it sounds just as good as a cable! To set everything good have someone help you adjust the squelch while you play a good 50 feet away (if possible)

Support:
haven't needed it

Overall:
I'll be using this thing till I break it (IF I break it) or I HAVE to get an upgrade for whatever reason!
