Great For Wedding and Conference Recording
There is a lot to love with this set and a small amount to criticize, so let's take a look at a breakdown of what makes this set work it.Packaging:Everything comes extraordinarily packaged in a nice minimalistic black branded box. Inside everything is inset into foam inserts for protection. This is one of the few times where I can say that I will be keeping the package and using it as a method of storage.Build Quality:The main units themselves are made of a durable feeling plastic with metal clips on the reverse side. The door hinges are not the most rugged thing I have ever seen; however, you will rarely have the battery compartment open so this should not be a concern. All the accessories, microphone capsule and cabling all feel well build and should stand up well to regular use and travel.Functionality:These work very well. The range is surprisingly long, which should allow for versatile uses from personal video, to conferences and weddings. The controls are hidden within the battery door which means once they are set you should have no worry of them being accidentally modified. Upon testing I also received no noise or feedback while flexing the microphone cable. This can be used very easily with audio recorders, dslr input jacks, and computers with dedicated microphone jacks or with a TRRS adapter for single jack setups.My only small gripe with these units is at first glance it is very hard to distinguish which is the receiver and which is the sender. I will be color coding them on my own; however, would have liked to see some factory branding or a slight change in appearance. The included batteries are not the best either and you will want to grab a good set of rechargables to insure you get the most out of the equipment.I will be using this set for video production. Previously I was using a field recorder and syncing the audio in post; however, the preamp in my DSLR is decent enough that I can use these to capture "baked in" audio directly into my footage. If you are looking for a great microphone set that allows you the freedom to move around, I would certainly try these out!
