PaulWarning Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) yep, me and our singer use them, they do the job for us, we use our own in ear headphones though though, neither of us (for different reasons) could keep the supplied ones in Edited August 29, 2018 by PaulWarning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Posted August 29, 2018 Author Share Posted August 29, 2018 Cheers Paul, am I right in thinking these things need a stereo feed otherwise you just get sound in one ear ? Know what you mean about the supplied earbuds they're naff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Capo Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Used these for countless gigs with a decent replacement set of in ears (JBL ones bought from a Tesco for £25) and they were amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Know what you mean about the supplied earbuds they're naff we get a mono sound to each ear by using a mono to stereo lead from our mixer amp (Yamaha 512 SC, which only has 1 monitor out) to the in ear transmitter, I know it's frowned upon by some on here but I only use one ear piece which also acts as an ear plug for the singers vocal and my backing vocal, the singer uses two though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be stereo to dual mono wouldn't it ? I've got a work round solution with adapters but it seemed so ar*e about face I was wondering if I was doing something daft as I would imagine most mixers would send a mono out from the aux.

Sorry pal, only just seen your reply. No that's not me mate. I know this unit is dead cheap but it's missing a trick if it can't deal with a mono input and put it in both ears.

Les Posted August 29, 2018 Author Share Posted August 29, 2018 Thanks everyone, going to use them in anger at Fridays gig and I'll let you know how I get on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I can get a signal from a mono source which feeds both ears. I use a set of dual driver phones, and I've had no complaints using them in pubs and clubs as well as large festival stages i also use a behringer ma 400 to allow inputs from differing sources (xlr ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
