Microdot 4016 Headset Headworn Microphone For Audio Technica Wireless System - Detachable Cable With 4 Pin Hirose type Connector - Omidirectional Mic

The following information was updated on 5/31/17 When I emailed Chris Microphones about this, they got back to me in just a few hours and offered to send me a replacement without In the next day or so, they promised to send the replacement, with delivery expected within a week. After the replacement arrives and we have a chance to check it out, I will update, but so far, Chris Microphones is definitely getting 5 stars for customer service.

*********
Ordered this headset mic three weeks ago. In any case, the quality of the audio is perfectly acceptable for spoken voice using an Audio Technica transmitter and receiver Upon receiving the headset, I found it to be a bit "hotter" than its predecessor, the Samson headset. However, with a few quick adjustments to the receiver and body pack, the gain was brought When compared directly to our more expensive Sennheiser headset, I can hear a slight difference in tone (+ definitely more of an average tone In terms of range/boxiness), but once properly EQ'd, it is a great little headset, and the past two users have preferred it to the single-plane-configuration The new ear rest design over our other standard ones A microphone is built into the head rest of a headset. In spite of my genuine desire to rate this product as five stars, as I lifted the headset up on the third time last Sunday (May 28) the mic arm snapped (picture attached) without any touch or stress. The arm snapped off as soon as I picked it up. My contact with the seller is ongoing and I look forward to hearing from him. If I received a bad headset, I'll be happy During the past three weeks, our microphone has been sitting in the pulpit when not in use, which means it has been worn just a few hours total. We have many excellent speakers on hand (myself included) that are trained in tech and mic use and are very conscientious about removing and putting on headsets. In any case, it was not under any kind of stress. This headset arrived in a small carrying case indeed tightly packed and folded and I have a suspicion that between assembly, packaging, and shipping the arm may have been put under enough stress such that it fractured, causing the arm to fall off when it was Although the mic wires are still attached and the mic seems to work fine, the mic arm looks to be a bit difficult to repair. Hopefully, the seller will be able to fix this issue and I will be glad to move the rating up from 3 to 5.

I am very impressed with the sound quality. My only issue with the headset is that it is rather awkward, but I still prefer it over a single ear loop type of headset. Once you have set it up, it is secure. For services in our church, it serves as a sermon program and general liturgy We have been able to hear the sound clearly live and on Facebook Live.

I have been very pleased with this headworn microphone, as I have been with all new equipment. If you rub your face, there are no odd sounds such as hissing, popping or brushing. The sound quality of our recordings is very good, and we record all of our messages in church. Despite its low price, we were satisfied with the quality of the sound this unit provides, and we would recommend it to others. Also, as follows We found this product's ability to be our biggest selling point since we can replace the wire attached to the headset to the belt sending unit. Previous models of headworn microphones featured (non-stereo This means that the entire device will have to be discarded since it is unrepairable.

It has been my pleasure to purchase at least half a dozen of these mics for various churches I have Three of them are now in operation. Despite the poor sound, this is a decent recording. Wind is well rejected by the enclosure. My music is transmitted through an Audio Technica transmitter into a mixing console, and then I use parametric EQ on the mixing console. My only concern so far is that occasionally a thin wire may My AV techs are discouraged from wrapping the cord around the body pack, and that seems to be working. The wire seems to be a bit thicker in recent models.

However, the first Sunday I tried to use it, it broke and sounded so staticky that no one could As I fiddled with it for a few weeks, I thought we had it. When I plugged in the old lapel microphone again, everything worked as it had for a long time. I tried contacting the company to see what I should do to get the microphone repaired/replaced, yet I have not heard from them. I cannot recommend this company or this product in good conscience at this time.

The church needed what it needed to survive. After opening the package, plugging the connection into the transmitter (from another company), I was able to make it work. It is very sound and the ear hooks can be adjusted so that it will stay on your ears. The lapel mic is a very good replacement for the clunky original mic that came with the As a result, the speaker's voice has a more uniform quality regardless of the position of the speaker's head and face, and there are no more brush scraping sounds resulting from accidentally rubbing against the microphone.

There is an excellent value in this purchase. As compared to those models which attach to just one ear, this one is better. The ring cannot move while the ring is There is no discernible difference in sound quality between the two. This is an unbelievably low.

(So far) this headset has proven to be very reliable. In addition to the good fit and clear and powerful microphone, the headset is also easy to operate. However, I have not experienced any problems yet with breakage after reading the reviews about it. Taking this set up against its expensive little brother, I can appreciate how well it works. A collar clip is certainly lacking as well as they are more fragile and not adjustable finely. I am, however, quite pleased with the quality of the product since the price is very low.

If the product breaks soon, I will update with a new version.
