24-bit linear AD/DA capture. Greater than 118dB dynamic range. Locking instrument cable included.

A breakthrough in wireless technology, X2(TM) XDR95 Rackmount Guitar Wireless System from Line 6 features award-winning solutions that traditional analog wireless systems simply cannot deliver.

Providing guitarists with total freedom, superior tone and refreshing simplicity, X2 XDR95 allows for a completely uninhibited musical experience. Performers can finally keep their energy and attention on their performance, not on their rig. X2 XDR95 provides this kind of revolutionary support.

Boasting extended frequency response and dynamic range, X2 XDR95 produces brilliant sound quality comparable to that of high-quality audio cables. Instead of tripping over dozens of feet of tangled cable, performers will fall for X2 XDR95's clear and powerful tone.

Featuring an extended range of 300 feet, the length of an entire football field, X2 XDR95 provides at maximum range the same blazing signal and brilliant, uncompressed tone that it provides at the source. Analog wireless systems, notorious for rolling-off low end, force players, especially bass players, to sacrifice tone for wireless functionality. With X2 XDR95, players can easily interact with the crowd at the foot of the stage without any loss in sound quality.

Extremely versatile, X2 XDR95 even simplifies the recording process. The extended frequency response, 10 Hz - 20 kHz, satisfies the expectations guitarists have come to demand from high-quality cable, but without the tangled mess. With their rigs cranked to 11 in the iso-booth, read more guitarists can play near the band and keep the all-important vibe and that ensures a great take.

Eliminating common issues that adversely affect traditional analog wireless systems, X2 XDR95 utilizes exclusive Line 6 dual-RF technology to guarantee a strong and constant signal and to neutralize issues of static, interference and jamming caused by cell phones, wireless networks and other unforeseen or unknown sources of RF energy.

Free of complicated setup, X2 XDR95 provides out-of-the-box simplicity. Complete with all the batteries, antennae and accessories necessary, it's easy to fire up X2 XDR95 and hit the ground running.

Overall, I am satisfied with the exception of the battery life. I am a weekend warrior doing 3-4 nights a week with at least 3, 45 minute sets each night. The battery life cant even last me two full shows. (even while being careful not to leave it turned on when not in use) I have been spoiled by other units that I was able to get 14 hours of battery life and to have to go down to a mere 5 is kind of a pain in the A. Figure out a way to squeeze some more battery life and this will be a killer product.

Sound
I recently bought the rackmount version of this for use with a bass guitar. After I recieved the wireless in the mail, I decided to go back and forth for a while between the wireless and cable and there is a difference. I cant exactly put my finger on what it is, but its noticable only when you do a side by side. Its nothing that I think is noticable enough to give up the freedom of not having a cable.

Features
It came with everything necessary. The battery meter is definately a great feature because the battery life on this unit is horrible. I also really like the screw lock on the battery pack. A great idea for a spot that has given me grief before.

Ease of Use
Definately easy to use. Plug it in and play. Cant ask for anything better.

Quality
Everything looks good and as of now has not given me any problems. The plastic is light and misleading but read more only time will tell if it is road worthy. I wish that the upgraded cable for the transmitter came standard however....

Value
I think that overall, it is selling at a reasonable price. Good quality, good sound. Again, only time will tell. I give it a nine for now just because I want to see if any problems arise in the future.

Manufacturer Support
Havent dealt with them.

The Wow Factor
It definately has a 'cool' factor to it that draws you in. Its new, its digital, its got cool blinking lights. Sold.
