[QUOTE="Max Warasila, post: 90318, member: 3845"] Re: Which preanmps are best ? One rule of thumb to remember with wireless is that it usually takes 2000+ dollars to get even close to the same quality as a wired mic. I personally looked at that one before, and while it does work for speaking and such, be prepared to send it back in the event that you get a defective unit. The non defective ones are fine, though still nowhere near as good as a higher system, but there have been occasions where the units don't work when taken out of the box. Just a thought there. I seriously suggest that you ask him to change the way he holds the mic. Work with him on creating a sound that he likes, as holding the mic the way previously described creates a sound that can be [I]safely[/I] recreated through the use of compressors and effects at the mix position. In all honestly though, give him a wired mic and see how he likes it. Who knows? Throw an SM58 up there and try it out (for all you gamers out there: TRIIIIAAAALLL!!!!), as well as perhaps a few other ones you may or may not find laying around. Save the money from buying less than great wireless if you can. Tends to save you from many headaches. [/QUOTE]
