Excellent In-Ear Monitor System

I purchased this for my daughter's concert last month. Absolutely amazing and worked like a champ! I checked with several performers prior to purchasing it, and they all said to make sure I bought the "Shure" brand unit. I am very glad I did. Concert went off perfect, and we didn't have all the "stage noise" to put up with in the house system.
Love it!

Fabulous Quality For Single Driver Ear Monitor

I am a vocalist of of 25 years and have always used floor monitors during gigs. As all musicians know, as the night goes on, stage volume increases as ears fatigue and monitor volumes increase. Add in acoustic drums and now you're really killing your ears. Vocalists must be mindful not to scream to compensate. Increase your monitor volume, damage your ears. Decrease your monitor volume, lose your voice from over compensating. In a perfect world your band's stage volume should be turned down and remain there, but that doesn't always happen. That's where this awesome unit proves it weight in gold. The day I used this a a rehearsal I could not believe the clarity and quality sound from Shure's single driver in-ear monitor bud. I can hear every little detail in the monitor mix. It's like hearing the mix while recording in the studio. The noise blocking from the stock ear-bud covers that already come on the buds are super comfortable and block 98% of ambient noise. On set breaks I don't take my ear-buds out and when people try talking to me, I can barely hear them. They have to get right up to my ear and shout for me to hear what they're saying. The ear-bud cable is a high-quality, super strong, heavy-duty, braided cable that withstands constant handling. I'm always curling it and tucking it in my back pocket during gigs. The ear-buds have gold-plated swivel connectors to the cable. You can get about two gigs from one 9volt battery in the receiver pack. From the picture of the transmitter unit, the left knob controls your voice volume (plug your mic signal XLR or 1/4" right in), the right knob controls the band mix volume (XLR or 1/4"). You send your mic signal out the back with another XLR or 1/4". The transmitter unit comes with two heavy-duty metal 1U rack mount brackets (plates) to rack mount this unit. Honestly, for this price, you cannot find a better entry level ear monitor system. In fact, I'm so satisfied I will never purchase anything higher in quality. I love this unit that much and will never sing again without it, doing so it torture, that's how spoiled I am now. I laugh to myself when I watch other musicians struggle to hear themselves on stage and I'm in my own little world of audio comfort. Get it, you will not be disappointed.

Great Product

I am the drummer for my band and this product really helps me out a lot. Not only does it save my ear drums, it helps me hear the rest of the band clearly without having a loud monitor blasting at me. So far, I have had no issues with any sort of interference. My band will be purchasing more body packs and someday more transmitters!

Great functionality, good sound, poor construction

These are great for the musician that must manage their monitors themselves from the stage. Dual input/output make them ideal for setup before sending signals to the snake. The ear buds are good quality and sound great. The problem I had more than once was the body receiver breaking. It's made of plastic and though nothing visually broke, it stopped working and I was forced to send it back to shure for repair. I think they charged around 80 bucks each time I sent it in. I eventually upgraded to the sennheiser in ear system that I must admit sounds better and uses metal construction. The entry level shure in ear buds sound better and are beefier construction than the sennheisers. In fact, I currently use shure buds with my sennheiser system. I hope this helps.
