Samson AirLine Synth Earset - True Diversity UHF Wireless System Review

Samson AirLine Synth Earset - True Diversity UHF Wireless System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The belt pack is very small compared to most others we've used. The diversity tx/rx setup is simple - but - you cannot change the frequency with the mic attached to the belt pack. Odd, that.
Our pastor says the earpiece is very comfortable, and does not slip during service. He wears glasses, so many other earpieces were either uncomfortable, didn't fit at all, or would slip. The slip resulted in the mic boom dropping significantly enough that the pastor couldn't be heard. With the tension band on this earpiece, that hasn't been an issue.
The mic is well suited for male speakers. There is a noticeable boost in the low end compared to other headset mics we've used. So far, the unit has performed well and fit, rather than busted our budget.

Audio Technica PRO88W-R35 VHF Wireless Microphone System for Camcorder Use Review

Audio Technica PRO88W-R35 VHF Wireless Microphone System for Camcorder Use
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is my first wireless mic. After some research I decided to go with this mostly due to it's price. To my surprise, not only the craftsmenship on this was great, but the sound is excellent too. I mostly do interviews and close range dialog shoots. It's great for the occasion.
You might need to play around with the antennas to get the sound clear but once it's done there's no prob. Can't say much on it's long distance performance but for my use it's great.
You can plug in any kind of mic with a mini plug on the transimitter. This way you can turn any mic into a wireless mic.
There are two outputs on the reciever. One for mic output to be used for connecting to your mixer,camera etc. And an additional output for monitoring sound through a headphone (small earpice headphone comes with the kit) or to be used as a line level output for non powered devices.
If you need more range and have high possibility of interference go for a UHF mic. But for regular interviews and on site shooting this is up to the job.

Shure PGX24/SM58 Handheld Wireless System, H6 Review

Shure PGX24/SM58 Handheld Wireless System, H6
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This microphone does the job!....great sound, easy to set up, and haven't had a single problem with it! I certainly don't get any "extra noises" from this microphone as I ever did with a wired microphone! It doesn't pick up every single "puhhhh," "sssssss," or "plunk" when touched or tapped. I'm very happy with it....Only thing though, I recommend getting rechargable batteries...as you'll need to have an extra pair or two if playing long shows as do I....usually 4 hours plus. Most batteries and brands last a good 4-7 hours....but sometimes it just seems that some brands don't last as long as the others...cheaper in the end to just buy the rechargable ones....it doesn't take long...and they last a good while!
Thanks Shure for making such a wonderful microphone!!! Will certainly stay with company forever!

Shure PGX24/BETA58 Handheld Wireless System, H6 Review

Shure PGX24/BETA58 Handheld Wireless System, H6
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Great value. High performance at a mid level price. Easy to set up (IF you read the instructions) and the auto frequency select is a great thing. Good sounding mic for spoken word or vocals. I especially like the fact that it uses 2 AA batteries instead of 9V batteries. Good battery life, good range of transmission and VERY expandable. (NOTE: IF you are adding a second one or adding one of these to a system that already has wireless mics, make sure that ALL your wireless devices are ON when you do the auto frequency select)
Also if possible use the balanced XLR out to avoid noise and for a better sound. I also like the power supply not using a 'wall wart' and putting the transformer in the middle of the power cable.
Con: It is possible to over tighten the battery cover and break it. Don't crank it on like Godzilla and it will be fine.

Sennheiser e945 Supercardioid Dynamic Handheld Mic Review

Sennheiser e945 Supercardioid Dynamic Handheld Mic
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been performing live for almost 20 years now, and unless we had pro sound happening during a show, I struggled, like so many other singers, to cut across the band. Not to mention the impossibility of even using all the dynamics in my voice because the low volume/range stuff just would disappear. I was mostly using Shure SM58, the old horse, and knew how to work it well. But as my chops grew over the years and I started to be pickier, I tried several handhelds before finally coming across this one. And WOW. All I can say is, in comparison to the SM58, it's like someone threw on the light switch while you never even knew you'd been in the dark. It has much more gain to start with, and does wonderful things to my voice across my (huge) range. Crystal clear lows, excellent highs, and just really, really comfortable to sing through. I would buy it again in a heart beat.

Shure PGX14/93 Lavalier Wireless System, J6 Review

Shure PGX14/93 Lavalier Wireless System, J6
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got this at a local Guitar Center in Pasadena, CA. the label sign said $648 and they realized it was mispriced. In stores it's actually $399.99 and he gave me 10% off because I really wanted the lower model PG14 which they don't carry in stores.
At our church, we rent out a school auditorium where there's no sound padding. We currently have a Shure wireless handheld (looks like a Pg14 + handheld but I think it's some older model) and a Sennheiser wireless lapel system that's been giving us a lot of interference/feedback.
First I tried the new AKG wireless presenter set and it had a lot of pops and feedback even though we adjusted the squelch and other areas.
So we tried this PGX14/WL93 system and this past Sunday there was no feedback, pops, in interference. We only experienced the clean and clear interference-free sound that comes from Shure.
On the base unit, I mounted it on top of our other Shure (which was set to channel) 1 and pressed channel and it seems like channel 9 was the only available option (7, 8, 9 at first, but now just 9). I think this is fine as we won't be adding more wireless systems, as of yet.
Once we popped in the 2 AA batteries into the transmitter unit I brought the unit over to the wireless base and hit "auto-sync". I wasn't sure if it was 1 tap or hold so I held it and it synced. After that, everything worked beautifully.
I appreciated that the body transmitter was easy to use. Hold the top button for power (green), push once for mute (orange), and again for unmute (green). On the side there's a gain switch for mic (high), 0 (medium), -10db (low). the "0" level was the best because mic was too loud and pitchy.
The lavaliere mic was great. I originally thought it would pick up too many other ambient sounds since it's a condenser mic but even with the band playing in the back the speaker was the only voice captured in the mic. there were no pops from "p" sounds and it did not have ruffling sounds on the shirt/jacket (I did not put on the wind screen which is quite big and odd looking). All we received was clear sound.
The other good thing about this model (transmitter) is that you can use 3 different lavaliere mics: WL93 (which it came with), the higher end WL185, or the lower end PG185 which comes with the PG14/PG185.
WL93: $80, WL185: $100. PG185:$40.
Having loved the countryman, I am now completely fine with the above options. Countrymans break and cost $400+ just to replace the mic (yes just the mic!). I don't know how the lower end PG185 is, but I assume it's Shure clear. So for $40-$100 to replace a lavaliere mic, I would gladly choose this over and over again! And Shure will be the brand of choice over and over again.

Audio Technica Pro Series Dynamic Headworn Microphone for Wireless Systems
Average Reviews:

Can't say how it works. It was recommended by a local store to go along with Audio-Technica's PRO 88W VHF wireless microphone systems that are designed for use with a camcorder. However, upon receiving both items, I discovered the headset has a 4-pin connection, and the wireless set accepts 3.5mm pin. The descriptions clearly state this. I just didn't read it, since I was going on 'professional' advice. My bad. I will say, the headset does seem to be well made, for the price. It's probably a great buy if it has the right connection for your system.
That being said, American Musical Supply, who the headset was ordered from, was exceptional fast in responding to my request for a RA# to return the headset. Credit was promptly applied to my account. I will shop with them in the future!

I have used at least a dozen wireless lapel microphones at different speaking engagements I've made across the country. Many of them have had frequency interference problems or sensitivity issues, as well as a few other problems. I eventually did a considerable amount of research, and purchased my own. I tried to strike a balance between cost effectiveness and quality, eventually settling on the Audio-Technica 700 Series Unipak Frequency-agile Diversity Uhf Wireless Systems microphone. I've used it once since I purchased it, and was very satisfied with the results it gave me. There were no frequency interference problems, the sound had exceptional clarity, and I didn't notice a drop in volume when I turned my head to signal to the presentation screen behind me. A particular lady with moderate to severe hearing impairment said she could hear very well. No adverse issues yet. Overall, a great value.
