Alvoxcon UHF Dual Channel Wireless Lavalier Microphone System with Volume Control for iPhone, DSLR, PA Speaker, YouTube, Podcast, Video Recording, Conference, Vlogging, Church, Interview, Teaching

I have 2 of these and the work very well for our performances.Would recommend for anyone talking to small groups of 100 to 200

I got this dual UHF mic kit to use with a portable battery operated PA amp (Behringer MPA40BTPRO). So far, I’ve tried the mic kit out but have not yet used it in the field. I will be using it to give tours in a bus in a few weeks. It will also be used for dance teaching and to MC events with music playing simultaneously. The description is not clear on a few things. It’s actually better than I expected.Receiver pairs instantly with the mics regardless of frequency change.There is an extremely clever mounting shoe adapter to use the receiver with a camera or smartphone.The mics are of average quality but great for PA use. I suspect a professional singer would want to use a higher quality mic.The mic transmitter body packs have independent volume controls (this part was not clear from the description given). This allows two people to be mic’d at different levels.In the event of feedback one just touches the volume up and down buttons together for instant suppression.I tested it with the Behringer amp while simultaneously playing music from an iPhone via Bluetooth through a different input in the amp. You would not expect Bluetooth and UHF to interfere but I wanted to make sure. They passed the test with flying colors.The construction quality of the parts of the kit is good. They thoughtfully include an adapter from 1/4 in female to 1/8 in male and 1/8 female to stereo mini male.The various pieces come in a die cut foam block in their box. I would suggest keeping this for storage. I would have loved the option of a small handle bag to store the components. It will be easy to get the headsets, lav mics and wires tangled. I intend to find one but keep the foam block to use with it.Overall this dual mic kit is well made, easy to use and works very well. I think it compares favorably to the Audio 2000 dual mic kit that costs 2.5 x as much. The Audio 2000 I’ve used had better mic quality but the receiver is much bigger and takes more setup. I’m not sure that quality difference would convince me to spend the extra money on it if my use was to be simple PA amp or PA amp with simultaneous music or videoPhotos show back of portable PA am with the mic receiver plugged in--very compact and easy to use.NB: I may obtain a discount by leaving this review but I believe my review not to have been influenced by this possibility.

I am a professional speaker / trainer, so I spend a lot of time using a mic. I really want to love this product because the sound quality is fantastic. But the battery doesn't last very long. Some of my virtual workshops are 3- or 4- hours but they battery starts to peter out after 1.5ish hours. Sure, you can recharge them, but that can lead to some awkward moments as I swap out the receiver (there are 2 in the box, perhaps for this very reason) then plug the first one back in so that it is ready to go when the battery inevitably runs out on the 2nd one. Meanwhile, I need to make sure the transmitter is plugged in the entire time since I can't swap that one out (there is only one in the box), nor would I want to. Having to swap both out, at the same time or at different times, would just be too clunky. A simple solution would've been to use actual batteries. I'm genuinely scratching my head about this one. Battery powered lavs just make sense - safe, reliable and proven. Or, battery back up. Plus, we all know that the duration of every rechargeable battery starts to drop over extended periods of use.I'll add that the over ear headset starts to hurt after awhile and it isn't adjustable. I have to jiggle it around a bit so it isn't jutting out over my ears. Thankfully, I have long hair, so I can hide the fact that it is a bit loose sound my neck.I decided not to return them for two reasons: 1) despite the battery issue, they really do work very well and since most of my presentations max out at 2 hours, I often just leave the receiver plugged in at the start because I can easily unplug it with minimal disruption to my flow; and 2) I didn't really see a better option in this price range.

The media could not be loaded. I’ve now had a lot of time using the Alvoxcon Microphone system here and I’m impressed with how well it performed for a dual mic system under $100. To see some of the mic tests, such as how it performs in noisy situations, out of sight, and distance, refer to the attached video.I actually host a YouTube channel where I review a number of cheaper budget microphone systems. Compared to some of the other mics out there, this is one of the best budget mics I’ve used. The sound is pretty clear, not muffled, and/or too nasally. Every now and then I would encounter some unwanted artifacts in the audio recordings, but at close range, barely ever.In my line of sight test with this mic, I was able to hear my voice over 200 feet away. Thought the listing on here says that the functional range 80 feet, in my experience, I was able to go way past that mark and still get decent sound in the line of sight. With objects obstructing the line of sight, I wasn’t able to get as good of sound far away from the camera, but it still performed well out of sight at close range.The feel of the headset on my head is ok, but the sound of the headset is pretty good, and in some situations may have even sounded better than the lapel mic featured with this system. For the most part, when wearing it, it didn’t feel like it was going to fall off my head, even when doing some movements.I like that this system automatically syncs the channels with the receiver when you change the channel. Another great feature is you can also control the volume on the transmitters. When plugging in the mic cables there is a screw connection that allows you to screw the cable on to the transmitter, locking it in place, protecting it from randomly disconnecting for what ever reason.The transmitters seem really well built with what feels like a metal body. Overall, I would recommend this system. I have used other mic systems that are hundreds of dollars more and this Alvoxcon system is not too far off in comparison to some of those systems, and in some cases may even be better, but at a much cheaper price.
