Just wanted to share how pissed I am. I purchased a wireless system for my video camera. The unit didn't have an XLR enabled output, not even an output jack... the 35mm output cord was permanently attached to the receiver. The website didn't indicate this at all. Bummer. Couldn't even try it.
Sent it back.
Next, I ordered a different brand; a unit with an XLR output. It came yesterday, and it's complete rubbish. Sounds like an AM radio from the moon. Can't understand how anyone could think it's even half-decent. Either my unit is defunct, or the reviewers are either dumb or bought.
Sending it back tomorrow. :running
Back to square one! :D Lovely.
What did I learn? Don't buy cheap wireless gear... each of those I bought were between 150 and 200. I read reviews, spent hours researching, thought I would get something decent for my modest needs, but nope. I received garbage. :puke:
If you want decent wireless equipment for a video camera, don't buy anything under 400 bucks. Sony and Sennheiser are good brands to go with. Stay away from the cheap ones! :bootyshake
