ingeborgdot Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I am looking for a handheld wireless mic system that has a range of at least 400' or even a little more. It will be used for sideline reporting and other things but when doing sideline reporting it will be a long distance from the base to the mic. I would like to keep it under the $400 mark as we are a school on a budget. I really like the Audio-Technica System 10 Digital Wireless - Handheld System range but it only has a range of 100' is what they say. Does anyone know of any good deals out there that would work? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ingeborgdot Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 As I rethink my distance I don't know why I decided 400'. I guess that would be by running a cable down, around under and over things to get it to where I need. I guess as the crow flies and in a straight line it would be closer to 200' max. Does that help my cause? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ingeborgdot Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 It will be a straight line of sight and no obstacles in the way. After taking a measurement I have found that the distance is going to be less than 150' at the possible farthest. We can always make sure our sideline reporter is never too far away I guess. I have no idea how I judged it to be so far in the first place. I guess I'm a guy judging distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne S. Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I found this mic that may work for you. I'm not endorsing or promoting this mic system, as I've never used one. I was doing a quick search and come upon this system. It says it's good for up to 200 feet, and comes in just under the $400 mark. http://www.amazon.com/Shure-PGXD24-SM58-X8-Wireless-Microphones/dp/B004K9VUZQ/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1443397566&sr=8-7&keywords=long+range+wireless+mic Or here is another one that you can compare with the one above. It's a few dollars more, but has a perfect 5 star rating, and comes in right at $400 with a range of 250 ft. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/XSW35-A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfharris Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 You may have some difficulty in finding a brand new mic in this range. I guess you should checkout some online classified sites where you can get pretty good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
