Dont know about that one, but I am selling a Sennheiser Digital 1000 for $200 shipped if your interested.
Its supposedly the digital technology that was in the original X Wire unit. I do have the rack ears as well. It has velcro on the bottom as I had it on my pedal board.SgtThump":1668c said:>|<>QBB<
I AM!!! Are those really good units? I think they're discontinued, but do they sound really good? Also, do you have the rack thingy or anything like that?
That looks cool and your testimonial sounds good. I have had a few wirelesses over the years and always sold them because they sound like crap. I dig this one because it can easily fit on a pedal board and be powered by it as well. I may end up snagging one of these....Bantam Menace":967a2 said:I've done 3 gigs (3 sets a night) with the new X2...it's great. No loss of gain, no drop outs, nothing to adjust. I tried 3 other higher end systems and they all had severe limitations. I love the new one...and they're $350!
The new X2 is 24 bit vs. 20 bit on the older one...big difference.

I love mine...don't underestimate the greatness of AA vs. 9V.
The only thing that bugs the fuck out of me is that to rackmount the EW172 you have to buy two items (as far as I understand it) - the rackmount adapter and these cables that enable the antennae to be moved from the back of the unit the front. This all ends up around $100, which is pretty weak IMO. Otherwise its a great unit.
Chris, Im a HUGE fan of the X2!! its made by the guy who made one of the best wirelesses out there; The Xwire...SgtThump":38700 said:Anyone used one of these?

Sure looks interesting... I may be buying a wireless system in the near future, and even though I don't want to spend $500 on a unit, I also don't want some cheap crap that totally colors my tone. I gave up on the middle range wireless systems a while back, but am ready to try again.
So, does that unit above look interesting to anyone else?

Yes I do, I truly think that its the best wireless in its Class and then some... Having the reciever on the board negates an extra long run of cable but you knew that; Ive seen you do it before...SgtThump":5aef0 said:>|<>QBB<
Very cool! So I assume you have an X2? I think I'll simplify my rig a little for this new job and I may only have a pedalboard and no rack. That means the X2 would be perfect for the board!
