Compares well with market leader
HuWill 07.12.2021
I have used this wireless unit for some time after breaking my previous 'market leading' unit. This is much cheaper but feels more robust and works well. It has on-off switches on the receiver and the sender and the units automatically synchronise to one of four channels, though the user can change these if wished.

The design works well with different guitar jack sockets from Strat type to strap button to side sockets. The only slight criticism is that the folding mechanism could be stiffer to allow the unit to stay as set by the user. Nevertheless, it doesn't have to stick out from the guitar thus protecting it from the type of accident that befell my previous unit.

I have had no trouble with quality of sound or dropout with the unit. I have not tried it with my keyboard, but I understand that if I needed it that it would work with that as well. I have not tested the range.

In conclusion- well made and well priced- if you need wireless connection between your instrument and your amp this is all you need.

Leads...ah ha I don't think so sir!
DIRTYFONK 09.04.2022
These wee things are great, plug any way u need, transmitter from guitar to receiver at your pedal board then only cable to amp (or another set of these set to different frequency) keeping lead free guitar/bass environment ready for implementation of your bands new (trip free) choreography routine. I like to charge them regularly although they do hold charge for a reasonable amount of time, defo a whole long gig. Some ppl tell me there is some latency with these but if there is it is minimal enough to not be an issue imo.

Great, works without interference.
AlexCollins 01.05.2022
Works well, no interference, decent battery, decent range. Also comes with a small carrying case.

I went for the 5.8 GHz version as I have many other electronics using the 2.4 frequency that I didn't want to interfere. So far so good.

Harley Benton AirBorne 5.8GHz is OK, as I expected. It is connected to an acoustic guitar and works with bose S1 Pro without problems.

No problem so far
Folkie_Bear 30.04.2023
I am usually playing clean electric guitar. I used this wireless in various indoor gigs and had no problem so far. There is a bit of tone difference if you listen carefully at home but not noticeable in live settings with my clean tone. I always have a backup cable but never needed to use it so far.

I used it with bass and active acoustic guitars without problem as well. Works well for the price. 5.8 GHz wireless system for a little money is great!

Really good
Potatoface 14.09.2022
Have been using these to practice at home for about 2 months now. Good sound, decent battery life, no latency that I could notice. All in all, good product for the price.

Does the job done!
fommof 10.02.2024
Well, it does the job done at least in my living room.

So far not only I have experiences zero interferences, glitches, drops etc. but these have almost identical sound with my favorite low capacitance Cordial and Sommer cables. Oh, and my ears agree with the null test I performed (because my ears may lie, but frequency diagrams don't).

I can't test the range at home and the same goes for the battery life, since I regularly charge them after finishing playing.

By the way, the router (dual band, 2.4/5Ghz) is sitting bout 4 meters away, no problems so far.

The only issue I found is that the Receiver does not shut down after 30 minutes as advertised even with the Transmitter switched off. In fact after 10-20 minutes a get periodic pops on my speakers. Not a dealbreaker for me since I usually switch off both of them when I am done.,

For 50 euros, it's a steal.
