Just curious to know if anyone here is using a wireless system in their rig? I'm considering getting one for use on stage, and don't want to spend a fortune on one, but I'll assume that you get what you pay for in these kinds of things. Has anyone used one they like or dislike? I'd like to hear your opinions either way.

Thanks,

Erik

I use the X digital wireless system which sounds pretty good. Can't say anything about them since they've been sold to Line 6- may not be any change.

I tend to use the wireless even on small stages as it gets rid of one more thing for me to trip over.

 
Just got home from a gig that i used my X2 on, hell i use it at band pratice cuz it sounds so good!

I love mine been abuseing it for 2 1/2 years now without any trouble

 
Sennheiser, Sennheiser, and more Sennheiser.

Advantages the Sennheiser EW172 unit has over the X2 XDR95:

2 AA batteries instead of a 9 V.

Battery life of 8 hours, vs. 5.5 hours.

1680 selectable frequencies vs. 5.

The X2 is $350, while the Sennheiser is $500, but you'll make up that $150 in batteries in 6 months to 2 years, depending on how often you play out.

I'd say 90% of the touring bands I see (and that's anywhere from 5 to 30 bands a week) are using Sennheiser. I've used them all, worked with them all, and I choose Sennheiser for my personal use.
