I know this isn't really answering your question as no, I haven't used them. To be honest they do seem too cheap to be good, at almost £40 less than the rest of the more well known companies I'd be inclined to pass them by, unless anyone CAN recommend them.

£40 :confused: I'd have said more like £400 and some less than a decent well known twin UHF set

Depends what you want them for. They could be ideal for karaoke when you don't want to give your really good mics to drunks to use! And being wireless the drunks couldn't pull all your gear with them!

I placed an order with them last year for some clamps. I ordered at 11am and the website stated next day delivery. Next day money had been taken but no delivery, so I phoned to complain, the phone just rang and went to an answer machine. Left a message stating I wished to cancel the order because I needed them next day and no response. So I sent an email and two days later got a response to say order cancelled and refund would be given. Two weeks gone no refund, I tried to conatct via phone and email and no response. Phoned my credit card company who contacted them and I then managed to get my refund.

I would advise you to stay clear of them!

Daz I think youll find that the UHF mics are better than VHF as the older type (VHF) run off the old frequency ie. radios etc. I maybe wrong though.

Is it just me or have you got that a bit back to front? UHF technology is far superior to VHF. After getting my Carlsbro UHF mics I'll never go back to VHF again. No dropped signals, further range, clearer sound, no picking up radio messages from local taxi companies.

And I wouldn't have thought the VHF version would be more expensive than UHF.

This is the one that I use. Bit cheaper than I paid here but, imo, worth every penny!
