Line 6 X2 XDR95 Digital Wireless Instrument System

I have been playing bass for 35 years and have tried several wireless units over the years. As far as transparency this unit is top notch for a consumer grade piece. As far as construction it is at the bottom of the list of any thing I have used. The transmitter has battery leads that are about one inch long. I can hardly get the battery off of the terminals. I also had to replace the cable as the origional lasted two shows. I spent a good chunk of change and purchased the heavier cable. I feel that this cable should be included in the purchase of the unit. I am sure line six must have been aware of the quality issues. I read that other manufacturers mics will work with the receiver so I may try to find a mic and use it for a back up vocal mic. I am going back to my Shure ULX.

I bought one of these over a year ago. I used to have a Shure, but it clipped all the time in low tunings, and the sound quality wasnt nearly as good. The X2 sounds just as good as a cord, and never clips. It does eat batteries, but for the sound quality I think its worth it. Im currently playing bass for a band in drop C and dont have any problems, and didnt have any problems when i played in drop A with my guitar.

this is the perfect wireless system for any guitar or bass. both my bassist and i have a system each and there is no interferance whatsoever. we both move around tons on stage and there is not a bit of difference in sound quality. our last show we even ran off stage and to the back of the building and the sound was still crystal clear. absolutely perfect for anyone who needs to go wireless for any reason. AMAZING

I did a fair amount of homework on this before I bought it, and tried out a couple of different units, and this was the winner. Sure, there are better ones on the market, but at this price point, the X2 is by far the BEST value. The Audio Technica I tried cut out on me too much, and while the Senheiser had a comparable sound, it was more complicated and quite a bit more spendy. I unpacked the unit and racked it at the gig, and had no issues the entire night. The battery level indicator on the receiver is key as the transmitter eats batteries (invest in some good rechargeables); I can squeeze two 1 hour sets out of a 9 volt. I am sure a true audio snob will find some tone coloring issues, but the average person won't hear a difference between the X2 and a cable; especially in the middle of the mix. At the end of the day, we are usually playing for a room full of the average person anyway, so why not have the freedom to go out and dance with them. The only complaints I have are the stock instrument cable is a little on the shoddy side (easy to order a custom replacement), and the receiver is made of plastic. With it being racked though, it is not really too much of an issue. If you are tired of being tied to your rig, and have an extra 1U to spare, the X2 will not disappoint.

The XDR95 does sound as good as my cable. It performs as described in the description. It does go through batteries pretty quick like others have stated, but I figure that will just have to be thought of like picks, I'll need new ones each show. Maybe I will look into rechargeables. (Though the owners manual says that the battery time remaining meter will be off if you use rechargeables.)

Wired Tone, wireless freedom is what it says on the box and they are not lying. Only downside is the transmitter. Cheap battery cover and eats 9 volt batteries. Get a rechargeable 9 volt. Way better than several other wireless sysytes out there. Overall- GET THIS SYSTEM!!!
