"For the money, it's a great little unit."

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
The only drawback to this mic is the mic boom isn't quite long enough to extend to the front of my face. (I'm 6'4' with a big head) I have to turn up the volume relative to the other singers however, I haven't had any feedback problems with it.
Sound
I use it every weekend for vocals and it sounds really good.
Quality
The receiver is plastic but seems well made. I've used it almost a year and a half and haven't had a problem.
Value
For the money, it's a great little unit.
