Comments about Shure SLX Wireless Headset System with WH30 Mic:
Brand new out of the box this unit was unreliable, worked intermittently and popped thru the sound system. I have always liked shure products, but not this. The headset was bulky and uncomfortable too. I sent it back and got a "Line 6" unit. It works great, has a headset that is barely noticable, and my sound guy approves of the quality sound output as well.
Comments about Shure SLX Wireless Headset System with WH30 Mic:
If you play in close proximity to your speakers (mains and/or monitors), this mic system is great at rejecting feedback. You get very good gain on this mic- plenty of volume. The sound quality is decent enough, but don't expect to be blown away. But it works. The one main drawback is the way the mic is built- it's a hard metal, square-shaped frame that doesn't fit very well on the back of the head and the ear loop opposite the boom is not comfortable at all (there's a Croakies nylon headband type of thing but I can't see what purpose it serves...it's loose and doesn't support the back of the head). It's rather painful, in fact, to wear this thing for more than 30-minutes at a clip. Also, don't expect to wear this unit with glasses (the pain factor is increased ten-fold with glasses). It is also a heavy unit to wear on the head, especially compared to the lightweight Countryman models. I purchased the Countryman head mic (tried both omni and direction versions) but the way the capsule is built, it generates tons of feedback if you are anyway close to mains or monitors. You might want to try the Sennheiser model for a better fit or possibly upgrade to Shure's beta headset mic (it's pricey but it doesn't look as uncomfortable as this WH30 is).
