Manufacturer's Description for Sennheiser ew172G2 Evolution G2 100 Series UHF Guitar/Bass Wireless

Simply the best, most affordable way to get professional caliber UHF wireless! Sennheiser's original evolution series introduced startling new technology and innovative design. Now, they're again pushing the limits of performance, audio quality, ruggedness and ease of use. With redesigned features such as much smaller body packs, larger backlit LCD displays, AutoScan function on all receivers, 36MHz switching bandwidth, and more, evolution G2 is today's most advanced, best sounding, easy-to-use, road-worthy wireless system. The amazing 100 Series offers 4 switchable presets (reprogrammable to any of 1,440 available frequencies), a true diversity, and - unlike other wireless systems at this price - metal construction that will stand up to the rigors of life on the road. The system features variable-level 1/4 in. TRS and XLR balanced connectors.

Features
Autoscan on all receivers for simple and secure frequency selection

1440 frequencies within a 36MHz switching bandwidth for greater tuning flexibility

Robust metal construction for durability

Smaller bodypack transmitters and receivers(30% smaller than current EW)

Pilot tone squelch(defeatable for backwards compatibility with original EW systems)

New battery concept(AA cells and rechargeable battery accessories)

Transmitter battery status telemetry on all models

Audio signal metering on transmitter LCD display

External charging contacts on 300 and 500 series bodypacks

"The best all-round wireless unit I've used."

Sound: Clear, no drop outs. Good range. Feature: Autoscan frequencies, or manual select. AA Batteries last a long time, and rechargeables last quite long, too. Quality: Robust. Metal. Short, though antenna. Metal 1/8" plug with retaining screw ring to set guitar cord to transmitter pack (solid). Perfect record in live use from our last tour. Clear. Range. Long battery life. Kiss your 9 volt pile goodbye. Value: You get what you pay for. Not the least expensive, but (nearly) flawless in on stage use. See "pilot freq." notes below. My next wireless will be other units like this. Manufacturer Support: On this unit, support not used, but on previous Senn unit the support was iffy on a tough technical issue - no one had an answer, no further help was offered. No complaints on the use of the unit - this is the third Senn unit used, all have been as advertised. The Wow Factor: Very good ergonomics / use / size. The best wireless unit I've used. Overall: ONE issue - the "pilot" frequency can fool itself and cancel if the reciever antennas are too close together in a rack. This pilot freq is the "auto hush" circuit that keeps an unused transmitter church quiet when the guitar is not transmitting. Watch your antenna placement (relative to each other), and all is well. Senn gents - please update your manual - this is important for frustrated non-techies.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great wireless for guitar"

Sound: For me, this is a close to a wired sound as you can get. It has adjustable input sensitivity which is great when playing with hot humbucking, hi ouput pickups and other guitars that don't have such high output. Feature: Built like a tank -METAL!! not plastic. I love the option rack mount kit. The wireless pack has a really difficult clip to use. The good news is, once it is one, there's no way it is falling off. The clip is reversable, too. Very comfortable to wear, easy access to the mute switch when switch guitars. I personally think the 3 foot cable is a bit much. Quality: I've only had for two weeks and used it twice in live performances, but absolutely no problems. It is built like a tank. Should last a very long time, especially with the secure rack mount Manufacturer Support: Didn't use support The Wow Factor: The bouncing signal indicator is cool if you're into that. I 'm just looking for something that works without dropouts. Overall: If the manual was better, I'd give it a ten.

Style of Music: rock, hard rock
