I use the AT System 10 Wireless bodypack system with a cheap clip-on mic for my saxophone. The system is lightweight, easy to set up, and can adjust to the input of any mixer/amp. I use the box it came in for transport. The whole system, including the mic I use, weighs 1 pound 5 oz. This also includes 2 AA batteries and the pouch that protects the mic. When playing I don't notice any weight at all. The transmitter hangs on my left front pants pocket and it hangs tight so that I don't even notice it when I move quickly and suddenly. The receiver is very light and uses very little power so the wall wart power supply is very light also. A balanced cable to go from the receiver to the mixer would weigh almost as much as the rest of the system. Light! It's easy to set up. Really! Open the battery compartment and insert 2 AA batteries. The battery bay has a diagram showing which way they should face. Plug the power cable into the receiver and the other end into the wall. The receiver is now on and ready to go. Yeah, I always forget how to match the transmitter to the receiver but the directions are in the box. All you have to do is press a button on the receiver to choose a channel, 10 channels, and hold a button to let it search for a transmitter. It's the same way on the transmitter. Once they find each other then you're good to go and next time all you have to do is turn them on. Press and hold a button on the transmitter until its light comes on green. Press the button again, the light flashes red, and the transmitter is in pause mode and no signal goes to the receiver. Press the button once and the light goes green and your mic/instrument is broadcasting once more. The receiver can use either a 1/4 inch plug cable or a balanced plug cable to connect to the mixer. This lets it work with virtually any mixer. There is a knob on the back of the receiver to set the gain of the output signal. This allows you to match the output signal to whatever system you have. Easy! Fast! Adaptable! The sound is great. No static or noise, just the signal. When I first tested it I couldn't tell if what I heard was me playing or the sound from the speakers! Distance hasn't been a problem at all since I tend to play within 12-15 feet of the receiver. A friend testing it with his guitar wandered through a couple of rooms and there was no degradation of the signal that I could tell. I haven't had any problem with other signals either when using it in public. I also have a System 10 handheld mic. They're set to different channels and there has been no interference when using the two of them at the same time. The batteries are AA batteries so they're easy to find and cheap to buy. You can use rechargeable batteries in this. I have no numbers of battery life but it looks to be about 4-6 hours of use from a set of Duracell alkaline batteries. This is on the handheld mic. I would expect the same from the bodypack. My batteries ran out the first time I used the bodypack transmitter but it was a set of well used batteries. The transmitter light will flash red when the batteries are going down. On the handheld mic it's easier to notice a flashing red light on your mic than it is a light on your side at belt level. I'm really happy with the Audio Technica System 10 Bodypack mic system. I like the freedom of not being tethered by a mic cord, the sound is great, I don't notice the weight at all, and the set up is just plug it in and turn everything on! This is a great wireless system!Read full review
