Wireless mics that actually work

Hi just bought some wireless mics of ebay and although they took 2 weeks to turn up from hong kong i was actually suprised how well they work and i can use 2 of them seperatly.

I know Sony are releasing theres soon but how come some cheap Hongkong wireless mics are available before sony can get theres to work properly

Re: Wireless mics that actually work

If I was a cynic I would say sony will release wireless microphones when they believe everyone who is going to buy the wired versions has done so. That way they can then sell all those people the wireless versions as an upgrade thus maximising their profit.

Good job I am not a cynic isn't it?

Re: Wireless mics that actually work

I have read that the Datel one's don't work with Singstar. Could'nt wait for the official one's to be released, so ordered 4in1's from ebay. Now just have to wait 2 weeks for them to turn up or not
