The issue is never distance which all the reviews seem to fixate on. The main problem, which is never covered is how they interact in a venue with other wireless systems running. In my band we use about 4 wireless systems, all different makes and brands and some of the cheaper systems like the boss ones that select channels automatically, are hopeless and drop out within 6ft of the receiver. Totally useless. The line 6 ones are usually pretty good, but you have to switch them on sequentially so they auto select a clear channel!
Be very careful with 2.4 systems. Lots of interference. Best to look for 5.8 system. But what do I know. I still love my AKG wireless bug system. Have 6 different frequencies systems to choose from. And as a bonus went and got a Getaria 5.8 system for a I E M system. Works just great so far.
@@sparkyguitar0058 I used to have an AKG bug several years ago. NEVER dropped my signal. I've had a Line 6 G50 for the last few years. As much as I love it, I've had signal dropping issues when I least expected them.
This is true UHF systems to me sound better but fluorescent lights can play havoc with them but what the fewer channels out there I think it's a little bit better digital just over compresses to me
@@johneoff707 I've used the AKG wireless bug system for so many yrs now. My 1st set was used and came with 2 bugs. Probably 15 yrs ago, still in use today both bugs work. But my favorite is a 2 AAA battery receiver and regular bug transmitter. Using with my pedalboard to guitar side its worked perfectly. On the board toamp side I use a 5.8 rechargeable wireless system that keeps my board so movable and quite quiet. Also stack my board on a music stand to make pedal adjustments on the fly. Although using the wah pedal is kinda tough. And another cool AKG system has mic capsule to make any mic wireless. I use that on a SM 58 with a gooseneck adapter for that F Mercury look. L O L
To be honest when I toured back in the '80s I used an Old Nady system true diversity that thing could go up to 200 ft and not cut out and it had good tone the latency is really super low . Everybody has to have digital now and I understand there's very few frequencies left on the UHF but I still think they sound better for bass guitar.
Thanks for the reviews. I have the line 6 g70. Blows me away how none of these systems have an additional wired input like the g70. Line 6 decided to discontinue the g70/75 product line. Wish that companies built in an additional input. It really comes in useful. I always have one guitar plugged in and one on wireless.
For what its worth, I've been using the old Line 6 G10 unit in the studio since 2018 without a problem. I didn't noticed the difference between a cable and the wireless unit when recording. I made two albums with it and it was reliable.
Fantastic review! Thanks so much. I play bass and digital works better than analog . I'm going to rock with the Shure over the Sennheiser. The range on the Sennheiser is crazy though.
I don't know how you'd replicate this, but when there is a lot of people (WIFI) around and you're using other wireless components is when you're going to see a problem. The distance isn't the problem, the air wave frequency is.
The Sennheiser colored the tone the most, which makes sense considering the analog signal has to go through a “companding” process. But what you give up in fidelity you make up in range. They all performed well.
Also my thought, it sounded like all the transient and pick attack was gone in the Sennheiser. I'd love to have latency and range of analog systems, and the sound of digital ones but you cannot have everything haha.
Another significant advantage to using the wireless units is that the output from the receiver for many of them is a buffered signal which, if first in line on your pedal board, can be a great benefit to your overall tone. Also the ability to to switch a simulated guitar cable length into the tone is another added plus.
Well what do you know about buffers doesn't matter where the buffer is in the chain it could be first last in the middle what matters is the end buffer and certain sections before certain pedals it's all experimental doesn't matter if you have one first or second or fifth or at the last thing in your pedal chain
Excellent comparison of systems, thank you for taking the time to do this. For me, reliability and range are most important, I roam the crowds at all gigs and especially outdoor gigs. I play bass but my equipment is very high end and can replace some missing tone. I suspected that the Sennheiser analog system would provide the greatest distance and go through walls better. I wish more of those rack mount systems had antennas in front. Antenna kits can provide that but waste a rack space. So now it’s a choice of Shure digital vs Sennheiser analog. Thank you again.
The trouble with these is: The batteries are not replaceable which means you'll have to buy a new set just because you have a dead battery. Quite irresponsible for these manufacturers I think.
It is sort of covered, although very briefly, they mentioned that the boss 60 uses alkaline batteries rather than a rechargeable. I agree though a selling point is having replaceable batteries.
Great video test of these wireless guitar systems,from Sam at pmt is a great shop great service and l have purchased the frankenstein relic and ibanez Rg550 superb axes, now in my opinion these wireless systems are all great anyway, what no one is noticing is how great the heavy riff is and l really dig that riff near the end outside, forgetting the breakup lol who cares, to me it's that riff 🎸🎸 but the boss Wl20 sounds great as well my only frustration here is that many years ago I owned the samson system that had a angle so if you plug into a ibanez you can't break it as easy as the straight plug in version as it doesn't angle to prevent accidentally breaking when on your knee playing at home, other than this a cool vid demonstration and pmt in Portsmouth looks massive l must go to that shop for its size and walls of gear is impressive rock on
Excellent video! I would like to buy it, but I am not sure if this product is still available or if there is something better? I hope you can advise me! Greetings
For playing at home I like the G10ii docking system, (as opposed to other cheaper matched dongles like the WL20) and the performance is good enough to not really need to pay more for the boss WL50 or others. I am a bit reluctant to get another relay g10 based product though. The original G10 relay battery life was severely gimped by a firmware update to avoid fire hazards. The G10ii supposedly fixes the issue but I am still reluctant. It is €160 compared to boss WL50 at €220 though so prob will give it another try.
Out of interest - I'm a huge fan of wireless sets (owning the BOSS WL-20 for a longer time by now) but what is the advantage of playing a wireless at home? 🤔
Bought the Boss WL-20, 1/4 inch jack on transmitter is not long enough to work on my Tele which has an Electrosocket jack input. These are very common so I'm surprised they won't work with each other.
You can buy a jack to jack-plug hooked (female-->male), hook that unto the WL-T, see if that works, if not then try a female-->male jack plug with a very short lead and see if that works (you can wrap the short lead around the strap). Simply put, extend the jack.
I've been looking for one for a while, think I've settled on the Boss WL-50 and this helped, however the problem I've had in the past with them is working with some of my guitars with active pickups, I have EMG and Seymour Duncan active heavy metal live wire and obviously some passive pickups. The NUX one's I returned the same day because they didn't work with my active pickups at all. I've done some research and the Boss ones have had some of the same problems, but there's a cheap easy fix and I'm willing to try that. I was really hoping that would have been covered in this, but we all can't have our way lol
If you look on the Boss website, they are aware of the problem and you have to run an extra short external mono cable to fix the problem. It has something to do with the output jack for certain setups ie. My Seymour Duncan heavy metal live wire, have multiple ground or hot contact points and the wireless doesn't read it properly. I have screenshots from Boss for the fix. Super simple, I've yet to get the WL50 to try it though.
@@charlesb7831 Sure, I didn't look too deep just went with what their company rep suggested. Plus, given the side mount and front mount of my basses the WL60 probably makes more sense, can't imagine the 50's transmitter on a P, but I am sure people do it and it works fine.
@@Dave-cf1zw I know they even mention on there website "works with most" it really depends on how a particular guitar is wired. ie. My Kramer nightswan is actually wired with a Seymour Duncan heavy metal live wire active and a JB passive in the neck position. So it's active and passive on the same guitar with my volume push pull pot as my pickup selector. I'm just going off my issues I had with other wireless systems that I tried. I actually have high hopes seen I found the fix for the problem on their website. Just have to get my hands on one now lol. Hopefully the next part of gear I get.
what are some systems with "non belt pack" style transmissor, but uses AAA batteries (so i don't afraid them dying out, and I can have some backups ready)??
The problem I have with all of these systems is that none of them have a pass through so that I can use a cable instead of wireless if I want to. In certain situations. That would be a nice feature.
I really dislike the Line 6 and those two Boss transmitter designs. Sticking straight out of the jack like that is just asking for them to get snagged on something and snap it apart, possibly even ruining the guitar's output jack. I vastly prefer transmitters that tuck up close to the body, like the CFG CF-80, or anything that allows you to mount it remotely, like on your strap or even the waistband of your pants.
Yes. It's badass but takes longer to setup unless you can leave the antenna up. Only downside is the body pack. The battery door is weak and also the metal for batterie contact gave me issues...had to add tinfoil...failed a cpl times at big shows. Bought the wl20. Like it for basic practice stuff plug n play. Have the line6 relay g10v1 with no updates...didn't catch fire. Still like it for basics. Bought wl50 to replace my G90 since I'm a bass player that uses pedals...played a show with it. Worked great. On the fence of getting rid of g90...I'm a rack mount freak so it was nice but since wl50 is pedalboard ready with a thru just in case of failure it fit right in. Let me know I may sell my G90!!😁
I wish there were a system that one could go wireless from guitar to pedalboard/multi-effects unit AND pedalboard/multi-effects unit and amp at the simultaneously but apparently it is only I that wants that.
For 99% of people that would be totally necessary, as the pedalboard would be stationary most of the time anyway, which is why companies wont make something like that. I thought about just getting two of the Shure system, one transmitting from the end of my pedals, but it seems kind of a waste of money for my case That sort of thing makes even less sense if your pedal board isn't also completely battery powered, as you're having to run cable to your board regardless for power. Having to keep guitar transmitter, pedalboard transmitter, AND the pedalboard itself charged all the time sounds really annoying Pretty much the only case in which having my board completely wireless and on battery would be if I was having to take my board off stage quickly all the time, which I'm not, so I don't see another reason to do that personally
I am happy with a lead/ wired solution for my guitar rig/ signal, but I am keen to get a wireless system to run from the back of my amp into my in ear monitors (via a Beringer P2) to just get guitar in my ears. Which of those shown would do this best?
You just have to be careful with mono signal which is what you'll get if you piggy back from a wireless guitar signal. That being said it's not a bad way to get the wireless signal.
Line 6 stuff is junk. Had the G10, the power jack in the base broke quickly. Had the g30 and the transmitter battery door and the clip are junk. Just ordered a Shure Glxd16. Cheaper is really near as good as the pro stuff....
I have the WL-60 and the only issue I have had (besides forgetting to turn it off and flattening the batteries) is the belt clip, which I removed early on and replaced with a Neotech WIreless Pouch (small size, 7901114). The pouch obscures the display (hence me sometimes forgetting to turn the transmitter off) but it secures nicely to my DiMarzio ClipLock guitar straps. I have only used this unit with passive pickups.
It's true about the quality of the Shure. However, make sure you never have problems with the system. Mine had to be returned for repairs (just a simple sender battery failure). It takes Shure now already 5 weeks for repairs, and I still do not have my system returned. So yes, the Shure is good, but the service Shure has in it's company is completely rubbish.
It's for when you really hate your band mates, you can go stand on the roof and play or pick up groupies, get your thing on in your van down the road whilst still playing. That sort of thing.
Could i take these tests for my use, which is with an electric violin or is there something electrical in the violin that can interfere with the signal? It is my big question now after clarifying all this with your experiments. thank you
So if you don't want a plugged in transmitter stick looking thing sticking out of your guitar you'll have to buy a patch cable about 2 ft long to plug the transmitter into or you can walk around with that ridiculous looking piece of kit sticking out of your guitar. Remember you can offer ideas for such things without taking away the selling point. I'm not walking around with that thing sticking out of my guitar on stage!
@@JosephSmith-lm4ri yep! The Sennheiser xwd-D comes with a cable and clip. I almost didn’t want to trade it out for the Shure GLXD16 but I did and am happy
@@standodge5536 that's completely fair. Personally I would probably hook one end up to my guitar and the other to my pedalboard. Btw, can they still function while charging or do they need to be disconnected from a charger for them to work? The sennheiser that is.
I can tell you right now this test is fake cuz you can't get one of those boss units to go more than 15 ft I tried two of them the highest quality one and they cut out after 15 ft if you turn your back to them
When you guys from Europe talk Meters to Americans. Please don’t forget to tell us the yards vs. meters. We haven’t converted yet and don’t know the metric system. Thanks.

Shure, I mean.

Glx-d+ is out now. It uses 2.4 and 5.8ghz

what are some systems with "non belt pack" style transmissor, but uses AAA batteries (so i don't afraid them dying out, and I can have some backups ready)??
The Boss WL-60 uses AA batteries.

The boss wl 60 has it.
Also the Boss Wl-50.
I'm more interested in sound quality and latency in a wireless system than how far I can run down the road from my amp while playing
Just got a Boss WL-20L and signal breaks up (5-8m). Very poor connectivity. I am using a Bass guitar
Seems like sennheiser is the winner

It's true about the quality of the Shure. However, make sure you never have problems with the system. Mine had to be returned for repairs (just a simple sender battery failure). It takes Shure now already 5 weeks for repairs, and I still do not have my system returned. So yes, the Shure is good, but the service Shure has in it's company is completely rubbish.

The obvious winner is the Shure.

@@tonih.3911 Yes I bloody did
Analog wins.
Could i take these tests for my use, which is with an electric violin or is there something electrical in the violin that can interfere with the signal? It is my big question now after clarifying all this with your experiments. thank you
Hola! Qué sistema inalambrico compraste para el violín? Yo estoy pensando en el shure blx 14. Saludos!
@@virnapacheco2321 hola terminé comprand un senheiser G4 y hasta ahora todo bien
Shure
510 dollars for a relay g10? Youch
So if you don't want a plugged in transmitter stick looking thing sticking out of your guitar you'll have to buy a patch cable about 2 ft long to plug the transmitter into or you can walk around with that ridiculous looking piece of kit sticking out of your guitar. Remember you can offer ideas for such things without taking away the selling point. I'm not walking around with that thing sticking out of my guitar on stage!
You could clip or secure a transponder unit with a cable onto the strap of your guitar.
@@JosephSmith-lm4ri yep! The Sennheiser xwd-D comes with a cable and clip. I almost didn’t want to trade it out for the Shure GLXD16 but I did and am happy
@@standodge5536 that's completely fair. Personally I would probably hook one end up to my guitar and the other to my pedalboard.
Btw, can they still function while charging or do they need to be disconnected from a charger for them to work? The sennheiser that is.
I’ve heard 2.4ghz systems can get WiFi and microwave interface. Is that true? Thanks for this video, actually looking for a wireless system.
Not true.....I use mine RIGHT next to a Wireless Router AND Booster! And never had an issue.
@@94SexyStang which wireless set? I bought the Sennheiser xsw but still have a cable in case of interference.
@@94SexyStang I bought the Xvive system and it was unusable due to wifi interference. I had to return it. Which system do you have?
B b
Trashy music no good
I can tell you right now this test is fake cuz you can't get one of those boss units to go more than 15 ft I tried two of them the highest quality one and they cut out after 15 ft if you turn your back to them
When you guys from Europe talk Meters to Americans. Please don’t forget to tell us the yards vs. meters. We haven’t converted yet and don’t know the metric system. Thanks.
The whole civilized world uses metric now. Catch up!
