Nice build and finish, works fine
We are using this connected to the mic input on an older Sony camcorder, with the headphone jack going to the line-in port on a Ma ini. The sound is fine, but the two units are very close to one another. This is being used to create a webinar, so the sound quality is more than sufficient. I think the better 829 mic was worth the extra money. This unit did NOT work hooked directly to the line-in port on the Ma ini - it did not send out a strong en... Show More

Not bad for the price
Using for documentaries and event projects. Sound quality is fair to good. Some feedback heard at all lengths. I like the covers and build quality. Not bad for plastic.

Great for a startup on a budget
I purchased this for my startup video company. We needed a wireless lav system but we didn't want to spend an arm and a leg. After my initial testing with the unit I am very pleased. The mic picks up the speaker with great clarity and very little interference. Line of site and range were a little low but that is expected with a device at this price range. Overall I think that this system was the most bang for my buck.

Poor hardwire connections
The devices worked great for the first two months, then the hardwire connections going to the battery, and the receiver connectors went bad. I would not recommend buying this product. Invest in a higher end model.

It Works
These are ok mics, from my experience the only bad thing is that it is bad on the low end frequencies. but for the price you can make it work!

Unwired and Ready to Roll
FIrst time using wireless audio Lavalier and it was easy as pie to use. In fact, I videotapped myself cooking and it picked up all the great sounds and sizzles.

Great Value
Great value and works very well. Not good outside in windy conditions as the included wind sock is not adequate.

Worth the Money
I use the wireless with my Canon camcorder to do quick PR interviews and training videos. So far, I have only completed two videos and it appears to work rather well. I wanted an good, entry level wireless to work with a few projects I have coming up. If the concept works I will upgrade, but for now I am very happy with my purchase. Even if I upgrade, I will still throw this in the bag to use on family and special events. I checked my local area ... Show More

Frustrating
I love the recording quality, form factor & the low power of this unit, but I frequently run into serious, project-destroying problems with static. This may be partially a range issue, since noise happens virtually non-stop when the batteries are not fully charged. But it also happens when the subject turns or walks too near the furniture.

Wireless CLip Mic
I am using the mic with video shooting and it is working quite well. They are easy to use and light weight. This is a good product for low to mid level video shooting. No bells and whistles; just a good simple wireless mic. They are a perfect addition to YouTube videos and will seriously enhance your video's audio track.

Tough, protable audio system
On a Church budget, this system is perfect. Easy to use, durable, plug-and-record. Fidelity rivals our $ unit. EXCELLENT value ...

Not the best, not the worst.
It turns out that this mic is really vulnerable to interference from the camera while recording. So I have to have someone holding it up and away while shooting. It is also not for long range applications. For me it works no more than 10-15 ft without interference. There is also a bit of a hiss but it isn't too distracting. Not for professional shoots but more hobby stuff.

Does a great job for a reasonable price
Used during corporate training videos in large rooms filled with noisy production equipment. The A-T Pro 88 enables us to produce clean, clear audio without a lot of the ambient noise, or interference or static interruptions. Will be buying a set for myself when I upgrade to a prosumer camcorder for home.

Easy to operate, good sound
I've used this product to record teaching presentations, and it works quite well. Good, clear sound, and very easy to operate. It also only uses two 9 Volt batteries, which is minimal compared to some of the other mike/receiver set ups out there. All in all, you can't beat it for the price. The only thing I wish they would throw in would be an extra lapel clip, since these are easily lost.

Very reliable unit
The Pro 88W is a very reliamle system. I have used it for several years under various conditions. As a wedding an event videographer I depend on it for clear reception of the vows during the wedding ceremony. I have even attached it to the main mic at events to ensure crisp clear reception.

A lot of buzz
A decent product in just the right circumstance. I have got a great deal of humming and buzz from different shoots, which just changing the frequency did not stop.Buyer beware Expertise: Pro Previous Equivalent Item Owned: Sony 99
