LearningRx Fort Collins: This unit was the best of the 5.8Ghz systems that I tried. Only the Lekato 2.4Ghz WS-80 was better than this system. You can see my review of that one on Amazon too where i go into detail why it was the best of the 11 systems.
I am keeping one 2.4Ghz system and one 5.8GHz system in case there is interference at the gig, so I am keeping this one.
All of the UHF units went back because none of them could sustain a note like a wire can. But this Getaria GWS-26 does. It is a little quieter than a wire, but the tone is so comparable to a cable that I would not have to adjust the tone settings if I had to switch from wireless to a cable in the middle of a set.
There are 4 LEDs to tell you which channel is being used, but you have to long press both Transmitter and Receiver pairing buttons to change channels. But the change is silent and quick. (On the Lekato WS-80 you just have to double press the pairing button on the transmitter, so that is better for situations where you might have to switch on the fly.
The Getaria GWS-26 is more expensive than most of the wireless systems that I tried., but still it is a good value.
And the batter lasts 8 to 10...

bonnie0710: I'm a big fan of wireless systems like this in general. If you are still standing up and stepping on your instrument cable then you'll also be a fan once you switch over. Probably the hard part is figuring out which of the many systems and different price points works best for your situation. I won't claim to have that answer for you but what I can say is that for my needs...which are pretty basic...practice and playing in my home 'studio', alone, and doing some limited digital recording using garageband...these are fine. This is my 2nd set of these...the first time around I went with the more expensive xVive setup. It worked great for about a year, then the batteries life started to slowly reduce and by the time we hit 18 months it was basically unuseable. While I liked the form factor with the xVives and have nothing bad to say about the sound quality, I think $150 is a crazy amount to spend for 18 months...so I contacted their customer support and they offered me a small discount on a new set. I said 'no thanks' because it was still a crazy price for something that lasts 18 months...maybe a bit longer if you get lucky. So this time around I picked up this Getaria solution....

I bought the 2.4Ghz first, and liked it, except I got a fair amount of audio dropouts, even at a very short distance. I figure it's the wifi, phones, etc. that was giving the 2.4Ghz trouble. So for $20 or so more I thought I'd try this one (5G) and so far it's much better with no audio dropouts.
Pros:
- I really do like not having a cord. It's surprisingly liberating to not have that underfoot.
- I don't notice any latency or signal level loss. If there is any, it's not enough for me to notice at all. In fact other than having no cable underfoot, I forget it's wireless.
- Solid wireless connection so far.
- Turning on & off the transmitter and receiver every time I want to use it, is no worse than plugging in & unplugging my guitar the way I was doing it. If you're used to leaving your guitar plugged in all the time, this might get...
