[QUOTE="James Moore, post: 4896, member: 1854"] I am looking currently looking into the purchase and creation of a wireless system for a touring children's show. I need about 8 channels of wireless mics, and am just curious about any and all input individuals here might have. My current desire is to go with the Shure ULX system, with Countryman over ear headsets. I would also be considering a power distribution unit, as well as an antennae distribution.
