Nady DKW Duo VHF Handheld Wireless Microphone System (Channel B and D) Review

Nady DKW Duo VHF Handheld Wireless Microphone System (Channel B and D)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My wife and I were looking for something we could get the children that would work half way decent. All the children's microphone we ever purchased didn't. I don't think this was made for children but it should be painted red, pink, or blue and marketed for children. Most children's products cost more and don't come close to the quality. Plus you get two microphones(no fighting for our two kids). Awesome product for children, can't vouch for professionals. Drawbacks for the parent user is that it comes with a 1/4" plug which most home systems don't have. We had to go to Radio Shack and buy a 1/4" to RCA adapter. Also, the microphones have an on/off switch and if left on 24/7 the 9 volt battery will not last long. Children aren't the best on being responsible about turning things off after they're finished. Stock-up! Very pleased overall.

Shure PG288/PG58 Dual Vocal Wireless System, H7 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've had this set of mics for about one year now. I must disclose an amazing fact: there is absolutely no feedback no matter how close you stand to any of the speakers! I have 7 speakers around an area where I use this set of mics. I use them for Karaoke parties. Any one can have a mic standing right next to any of the 7 speakers and there is absolutely no feedback at all sound and mic levels. The Shure does know how to capture voice. This set of mic is very sensitive while not very draining on batteries. On another note, I did purchased a set of rechargable batteries from Amazon.com (You can serach my review to find it). I had generic brand, Panasonic, Sony, and few other types of mics before. None of them can come even close to the performance of this set of Shures! For the Amazon.com price, I highly recommend this product. I've been a very happy customer :)

Samson Stage 5H VHF Handheld Wireless System, Channel 06 Review

(More customer reviews)
This Samson Stage 5H Wireless System, was a big disappoint for us!
We are knowledgeable on how to set the squelch and various input settings for maximum efficiency, but we could not get a dependable connection when standing just a few feet away from the receiver.
We tried relocating the receiver, but still had numerous "drop outs" when standing just a few feet away from the receiver.
We didn't expect much for the price of this item, but at least it should have worked when standing very close to the receiver. We even tried relocating the receiver to different parts of the stage; but to no avail. We still received numerous signal "drop-outs."
This Samson Model Stage 5H was a huge disappointment; and a waste of money $$$.

VocoPro IR-9000 Infrared Dual Rechargeable Wireless Microphone System Review

VocoPro  IR-9000 Infrared Dual Rechargeable Wireless Microphone System

Since I bought the vocopro karaoke player and like it so much, I decided to buy the vocopro microphone. The sound of this mic is pretty good. However, the advertisement on how you can still pick up the signal in another room is not true. Also, the transmitter is at the bottom of the mic, so if you hold the mic at the bottom, it will make a loud noise. When you have a birthday party with a bunch of 3 year old kids, you have to constantly tell them not to hold the mic at the bottom. Other than that, we enjoy these mics very much.

Nady Dual Channel Wireless 2-Microphone System - DKW-DUO HT Review

Nady Dual Channel Wireless 2-Microphone System - DKW-DUO HT
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I moonlight a couple nights a week as a Karaoke host in 2 different bars in town. I have a pretty nice setup of equipment and use a Shure Beta 58A Supercardioid Dynamic Microphone as my DJ mic. However for my Karaoke guests, I use these Nady Duo's because they are super cheap and for the most part work pretty good in this application.
Why is cheap important? Because mics that you pass out to singers at the bar are going to be more often than not, especially if their singing karaoke, very drunk! Some sing well and some, not so well but one thing in common happens. Mics get dropped, beer spilled on them and just in general, abused! Though its never happened to me, they can also be stolen. "Shure" in my opinion makes the best mics, however they are also very expensive ones too. When you watch a $600 microphone get dropped or tossed into a puddle of beer or bar-floor muck, you cringe in terror. So the first rule of Karaoke Mics, they must be cheap! Unless you really know and can trust a singer not to destroy it.
The next most important thing to consider is sound quality. Now again, Shure mics have top notch sound quality and these Nady's are a fraction of that. But the difference to be heard in live amateur karaoke singing performances will not be apparent in 80% of all singers. So these Nady Duo Cordless mics sound good enough for most people and the best singers that you will have, wont really expect you to have outstanding mics anyway so its very likely you'll never hear a complaint.
Drawbacks:
Reception - The range on these mics isnt as good as many of the higher priced cordless mics. However you do get a good 40-50 feet of range in clear view of the receiver before you have any chance of a reception problem. I stack the receiver on top of my PA speaker for a little better reception. It seems to work well in every bar application that I've used them in. You will lose range if you need to go through walls!
Feedback - Absolutely all mics can feedback. It depends on how much you have them turned up (gain) and the useable range cone or arc of the mic. What I mean by range cone or arc is if you are holding the mic straight up and down, there will be a V shaped area from the head of the mic upwards that it will pick up sound. So obviously if you are making noise directly pointing at the bottom of the mic, its not going to pick it up unless it reflects off of a surface and hits the top. The Cone range that these mics pick up is fairly large. So it is pretty easy to pick up background noise or feedback because it is too close to a PA speaker. I again compare this to my Shure Beta 58a that has an extremely narrow cone, that mic does has a narrower cone and you almost need to point the mic directly at a speaker to get feedback. So the main key with these Nady's is.. stay clear of the direct path the speakers are pointed in by about 15-20 feet. In fact stay out of the direct firing range of all of your speakers and you'll be in good shape.
Interference - I have seen 3 different sets of these in action. The first set I got, one of the mics has a very consistent whine when turned on. So I only use that one if someone wants a mic for a backup singer. Luckily they have on/off switches so you can flick it off right when they are done. Not all sets will have this and its really only happened with 1 in 3 sets that i've used. I'm sure you can return one and get one that doesnt have this problem.. but for the cost, i didnt feel it was even worth the shipping of sending it back.
So overall, this is a decent low cost wireless microphone set. If you have never owned a mic before and just need them to mess with or the karaoke application that I mentioned, get them. If they dont work out, im sure you can unload them on craigs list for more than you bought em here for. If you need a high quality mike for a band, i suggest you take a look at the Shure SM 58's or Beta 58a's!
