Good VALUE System.
By William E. Strack on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2016
I really like this mic more than I thought I would, due to the mixed reviews. It really works well and is as good quality as my 20' wired Lav Mic and is way more conveniant. The fartherest I've tried it is about 20' and it works fine. I am doing how to and product videos with it and my camera zoom doesn't pick up the detail I want past that, so I typically won't be using it all that far away. I do like that I have both hands free to use the product or work. (Don't you just hate those videos that someone tries to do with one hand and trying to make something work with the other hand). From the many reviews I've read on this system, the QC is spoty, but I got a good one. The build is pretty rugged and the sound quality is good for a wireless system under $20. Under $15, in fact. Will it match a $200+ system? Of course not. ITS A CHEAP UNIT PEOPLE. But for the money, it does what it is designed to do and does it well. Long story short, it's cheap and it works. Don't buy a Focus and expect a BMW.

I was initially severely disappointed with this product. I would plug it into my camera or my computer and would get nothing but white noise out of the left channel. I could literally yell directly into the mic and get some audio, but it was totally unintelligible. I thought it had to be broken, because the online videos were actually reasonably decent. So, how could I get pure garbage? Well, if you check the manual, you can alter the frequency of the device by using a (VERY) small screwdriver and turning the screw on a small hole on the side. I plugged it into my computer, began turning the screw and BOOM. No more white noise, and the audio came in clear! Now, the audio is super quiet. Even at full volume, I can't get a reasonable level off of this thing. Fortunately, increasing the volume with software does the trick and the results are reasonably clear, but it's an extra step that seems unnecessary. Overall, this product is about 10 times cheaper than anything else you'd find, and so you should expect crappy design and headaches. But, if you're looking for a cheap solution, you may find it here. If you find yourself in the same pickle I was, then just try changing the frequency and see if it doesn't help.
