It worked

It worked, very well, right out of the box, with no fussing, second guessing, "what the hell" -ing, or any of the other nonsense sometimes associated with new gear. It didn't give me any reason to think about it, worry about it, or wonder if it was going to do what it was supposed to do.

Highly Recommended For Presentations w. Walk-Around Mic

I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about the XL-Air when I first saw it advertised on Facebook. I decided to give it a try, and now I'm really glad I did.

My primary use for this system is for presentations that I engineer and sometimes host for my township. I use a Shure SM58 Beta through either QSC K12.2 speakers or a more streamlined Yamaha StagePas 600 system. Although these are not concert-level speakers, both are high enough quality to expose any flaws in a wireless mic.

Generally, the mic starts out on a podium, then gets passed around for Q&A afterwards. My first concern was leaving the transmitter and receiver powered on for two hours or more, something I've always had to worry about when using lower-priced wireless systems. After one use, that worry was put to rest, as the system stayed powered through an entire 2.5 hour presentation and probably would have gone several more hours (according to the documentation that came with the XL-Air).

Next, I wondered if I could wander around a large room and not experience any dropouts or interference that would sour my presentations. Again, the XL-Air passed the test with flying colors.

Mostly, I was anxious to see if the XL-Air would noticeably degrade the sound quality of my SM58B. It did not. In fact, in the two situations I have used it so far, I received more compliments on mic quality than I ever did when using the 58 with a wired connection!

I do, however, have two minor suggestions for future revisions of this system:

1. The indicator for monitoring battery capacity could be a little more specific. As it is now, a green light can mean you either have 30% battery or 100% battery remaining, and that makes me a little uncomfortable. Perhaps an indicator light that changes color as the battery drains would be a good upgrade?
2. Accidentally poking the channel-selecting button is a little too easy to do! The button is in an awkward spot (always inaccessible when plugged in - especially the receiver end) and you can easily press it without knowing. As an experienced sound engineer, this is not a huge problem for me, but if you plan on purchasing this for non-technical users, it can get pretty frustrating. I loaned mine to a senior chorus to see if it was practical enough for them to buy them one of their own. The very first day, I got a call saying the mic was getting a lot of static. When I went by to check it out, I saw that the channel had been inadvertently changed to one that was pretty crowded in the area. Fortunately, the transmitter and receiver are set up to automatically pair whenever the channel is switched on either of them; otherwise, this would have been a total disaster for the chorus. Maybe the dual Power/Channel button can be modified so changing channels requires TWO short taps instead of one? And maybe it can be moved to a more accessible piece of the transmitter/receiver?

Overall, I am in love with this piece of equipment, and now I am considering selling my Shure Wireless system. One last thing: You will see other wireless mic units that look exactly like this one and sometimes sell for much less. CFG is prepared with a list of specs demonstrating that these are similar only in appearance and not in quality, so before you opt for a "cheaper" version, be sure to inquire with CFG to make sure you won't be disappointed.

Hi Tom,Really appreciate you taking a chance on the XL-Air and giving such a detailed breakdown of how you’re using it. Sounds like a pretty demanding real-world setup too, so it’s great to hear it held up over long presentations, handled the walk-around Q&A without dropouts, and kept your SM58 Beta sounding solid.

Love that you actually got more compliments on sound quality, that’s exactly what we’re aiming for.

Your feedback on the battery indicator and channel button is super helpful. The point about the green light range is fair, and a clearer visual indicator is something we’ve heard from a few users. Same with the channel button, especially in shared or non-technical environments like the chorus example you mentioned, that’s a great real-world case and exactly the kind of scenario we think about for future revisions.

Also appreciate you calling out the lookalike units out there. You’re absolutely right, they can seem identical at a glance, but the internal components and performance are a different story.

Thanks again for putting it through its paces and for sharing such thoughtful feedback.

The product isn't very good. The UHF picks up a lot of interference and makes strange rattling noises and squeals.

Sorry to hear that, Jeff, that’s definitely not the experience we want you to have. Interference, rattling noises, and squeals usually means something’s not set up right for the local RF environment, and we’d love to help you get it running clean. Please reach out to us at support@cablefreeguitar.com
with your order info and a quick note on your setup (mic model, amp/PA, and where you’re using it), and we’ll walk you through a couple quick checks and get you sorted.

Very satisfied

I was very doubtful about this although the reviews were very good. When I received it and plugged it in I was blown away. The quality is excellent. The only thing negative I found about it is that the drummer does it have your normal beats. There's only a couple of that would be what I call standard. Other than that it is great.

Thanks so much, Beau, really appreciate you giving the TuneBomb a shot, especially if you were on the fence at first. Stoked to hear it blew you away once you plugged in and that the sound quality hit the mark. Totally fair note on the drum patterns too. We kept them intentionally simple so they’re easy to jam with, but feedback like this helps a lot as we keep improving things. Glad you’re enjoying it overall, and thanks again for sharing your experience. 🎸🔥

The manual has misinformation

The manual has misinformation about the SonikSphere guitar system. It states that the charging lights will go out when fully charged. They do not. It also states that the receiver will power off after 10 minutes of inactivity. According to your tech support, which is hard to get a hold of and takes too long to get back with me, is also not true. I enquired about returning the unit, protective case, and Airpack, but she never got back to me. I tried the unit at rehearsal and it performed well. I guess I'll keep it and hope it works for my Church service this weekend. If it gives me problems I will be returning all 3 products.
