High-performance UHF true diversity wireless microphone system with 320 selectable frequencies.

Take control of your stage with wireless mics!
Stage presence is an important part of any live performance. At the very least, you want to look like you know what you're doing when you stand in front of an audience. It can be pretty hard to look cool, though, if you keep tripping over your mic cable. Unless you're into Punk, where it's kind of expected. Of course, NOT tripping over your mic cable when everyone expects you to - now that's Punk. Regardless of your musical style, Behringer helps you clean up your act with the Ultralink wireless microphone system.

Professional performance at an affordable price
For working musicians, the UL2000M brings wireless freedom to the most modest tour budgets. With such a low price tag, you may be thinking "two cans and a string", but this system has all the features and performance of wireless gear costing hundreds more. It's so affordable, you can outfit the whole stage with wireless mics and still have money left over to put gas in the tour van. Operate up to twenty units simultaneously, while keeping your receivers organized with the included rack mount kit. Each system comes with colored indicators for both the transmitter and receiver, so you always know how they match up. The indicators are interchangeable, so there will be no fighting about who has to be Mr. Pink.

UHF operation
Ultralink systems use the UHF frequency band for interference-free operation at every stop on the tour. You can select from any of the 320 operating frequencies read more to find a clear channel, even in the noisiest RF environment. Don't feel like hunting through all those channels every time you pull into a new town? No problem. The UL2000M offers an auto-scan feature that does the work for you. This is a major time-saver when you run multiple wireless systems. Your microphones will be set up in seconds, leaving plenty of time to finalize the set list, double-check the lighting cues, and tighten up your monitor mix.

True Diversity technology
To prevent audio dropouts, the UL2000M uses the same True Diversity technology as the most expensive wireless systems. Your audience might be completely caught up in what your are saying or singing, but their focus will be broken if they see your lips moving and don't hear any sound. True Diversity technology makes sure your message is delivered. Two front-panel antennas are attached to two discrete radios inside the receiver. Both radios independently track the transmitter, and the receiver automatically sends the strongest signal out to the PA. No dropouts to worry about, just uninterrupted communication.

Informative LCD display
Some manufacturers skimp on display features, with only a few LED indicators to let you know what's going on. Not Behringer. The UL2000M's large, backlit LCD-display shows loads of information, including active antenna, RF level, audio level, channel number, channel color, and frequency, plus menu items like squelch and mute. A simple three-button interface makes navigation easy. Balanced XLR and 1/4-inch TRS outputs allow for quick connection to any PA system using cables you probably already have on hand. The receiver also includes an AC adapter with swappable voltage selection for hassle-free use on your European tour. With simple operation and versatile connection options, you are free to concentrate on your music, not your gear.

Handheld microphone transmitter
The wireless technology is certainly impressive, but how about the audio quality? The handheld microphone transmitter captures speech or singing with accuracy and presence, for vocals that cut through any mix. The dynamic microphone capsule uses a cardioid pickup pattern for tight focus on the intended audio source. This unidirectional aiming control rejects unwanted noise from the back and sides of the capsule for clean, isolated vocal tracks. When you boost the vocal faders, you won't be adding noise into the mix. The lyrics rise above the instrumental tracks and the audience hears both words and music.

Powerful onstage control
The transmitter contains power- and mute-buttons for improved onstage control, with less chance for open-mic feedback when the system is not in use. The channel selector and status LED makes soundcheck go much smoother. The singer can report on the status of the lights without the sound tech having to run back and forth from the board to the stage. The handheld transmitter can be powered by a single 9-volt battery, or combined with a second battery slot for an up-time of approximately 12 hours.

"Best in class!!!"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Well I think iit says it all with my responses so in closing get one if you have the need for a good sounding microphone that will not break your buget.
Sound
Overall I guess it is what it is as far as it does have a clean crisp response on all frequencies. Seem to be a tad hot in the 630 to 1 KHz but nothing you cannont adjust out of it. Aslo, in the 250Hz it is seemingly hopped up.
Features
It is nice overall but it is not built to last forever with plastic we know comes chips cracks and in the end failures. But it is a great price for what it offers
Ease of Use
Nothing to it plug, set and go.
Quality
Back to talking about the plastic... well I said enough above
Value
This mic is unbeatable in the price range, I think if you could rate it fairly in a price range I would say the Shure PGX is in the same class, only the behringer is half the price.
Manufacturer Support
Non Needed yet
The Wow Factor
Strange to rate the sex appeal of a microphone but I can say if you can sing who needs sex apeal. You always have someone that wants to be PART OF IT!
