Hi want to find what are the best trusted brands in wireless system for guitars and bass?

I've been using Sennheiser EW100 (old model) for all my gigs for a couple of years now. Never once failed me or had any issues with frequency, etc. Get a UHF one instead of the cheaper VHF.

the things i want to know is will there be feq mix ups? cause my band have 3guitarist 1 bassist is there a person or maybe a shop that i can ask them for advice?

 

[gsonique]

NO ...unless u fellas wanna share the same freq :lol:

 

[jimmyplaydrum]

share the same freq? as in all in one receiver?

 

[gsonique]

A set (transmitter + receiver) has its own pre-set freq and the details are stated on the hardware ....so no mix can happen! :wink:

:lol: *lol*
All 3 members need to set 3 different frequencies so that they won't pickup up one another's signals. Most of the wireless systems have their default frequency range (I think) and as long as all 3 of you program different frequencies, you're good to go. Of course, also have to see the venue's wireless usage...as long as they don't interefere with their wireless mics, etc (or nearby taxi uncle's radio :lol: ), it should be fine. Usually, you'll know when you do soundcheck...if the sound coming out is garbled/pick up other radio sounds, etc, then just change the channel on the wireless system until you get a clear signal (actually it never happened to me before though).

Reason why UHF is preferred is because it's less cluttered and less appliances uses it compared to VHF.

so what brands you guys suggest? cause i think we only have a budget of 1.5k to buy for all 4 members and where to buy them for a good price?
