Re: Wireless Systems

I second the Sennheiser. Great system for the price. If you want an upgrade to that for just a bit more, replace the Senn lav with a Countryman E6. You might can order the Senn kit with no mic, just a body pack (sometime this is called a guitar kit - same body pack, you just get a guitar adapter cable - it will work just the same with a mic plugged in) then purchase the Countryman lav with it. Make sure you get the medium sensitivity E6. The high sensitivity is worthless (shouting distorts it), and the low sensitivity won't give you enough output unless you are doing musicals.

The ultimate lav mic in my opinion is DPA. But you'll pay as much for that as you did your wireless kit - makes you nervous to let the talent ruin it!
