Default replacing mic cables with radio mics

===================

1. You cannot use phantom powered mics - only dynamics & batt powered electrets.

This is no longer the case! A bunch of the newer butt plugs will now
supply 48V phantom. Shortens battery life, though.
2. Typical wireless mic systems are engineered to work with vocal mics, so big signal levels coming from the mic.
Not so good with only mV or sub mV levels.

The Lectrosonics systems are better than most in this regard.


** This is may be what Scott is alluding to:

Click on "data sheet" for tech details.

A cool US$ 1,700 for one transmitter.
Another US$ 1,300 for one receiver, batt powered.

So US$ 6,000 for the OP to replace two XLR cables.
