I'm always skeptical when I see gear with an insanely low price tag, kind of that "too good to be true feeling"; but I've seen almost nothing but good reviews on this thing, and it also costs nothing - ~100€ for a wireless is peanuts, if it's good! And, the transmitter can run up to 30hrs on a SINGLE AA battery!! :shock:
Also saw a demo where a dude goes to his basement with it and it only hisses a little. I doubt I'll be having that many walls between me and my amp live :lol:
The only thing that worries me a little is the "plastic-ness" of the whole unit, but transmitter and receiver; looks as if it would break if I jumped too hard on stage :? Even though I saw a review video where the uploader commented that he dropped it twice off a halfstack onto a concrete basement floor and it still works.
I'm the first person to say "buy cheap buy twice" but that's mostly when folks mention knock-offs and such... this thing seems legit on its own.
I know the Sennheiser FreePort got some love and is also cheap and well reviewed, but has anyone had any experience with these units? Like I said, it just seems too perfect to be true.
