FIFINE UHF Dual Channel Wireless Handheld Microphone, Easy-to-use Karaoke Wireless Microphone System-K036

As a Mobile DJ with loads of duplicate equipment, I was looking for yet another wireless mic system that was both durable AND wouldn't break the bank, this time to use solely for outdoor gigs . I have a few other Fifine mics (all wireless) and they have worked well for me, so I decided on getting these mics.As with Fifine's other Microphone offerings, these mics worked quite well for what their intended usage would be - Outdoor Gigs (weddings, pool parties, backyard BBQ's, etc). I picked these mics up for specific outdoor events and this is what my experience was:[EASE OF USE]The included instructions are very easy to understand. However, as a DJ, I didn't even bother following the instructions because I'm used to mics AND everything pretty much flowed so logically. Basically plug the receiver up to your sound source (or in my case, DJ Controller/Mixer), add batteries to the mics and adjust the mic volume. It really cannot get any easier than this. The time to do the entire Mic setup? literally 2 minutes...maybe even shorter. If you are not familiar with how the mics can be setup, simply use the directions and you'll be up and running in no time. There are a variety of ways you can hook the mics receiver up to your equipment.[WHAT'S IN THE BOX]As, not only a DJ, but, a Techie Programmer as well, I love boxes with loads of extras in them. Fifine never disappoints in this regards. In the box you'll find:* 3 channel receiver - You can add a 3rd mic as an aux mic in through the front of the receiver* 3.5mm to RCA cable* 1/4" Cable* 3.5mm Cable* 2 Wireless mics, w/ different colored end caps* Power adapterSo, as can be seen, you have everything needed to get started using the mics in a variety of setups and situations.[SOUND]This is an important one I would think. How did the mics sound? Well, I give this product close to 4.5 stars, but the review only shows 4 because I believe it is more on the lower end of a 4 than a 5. I ran these mics through my Pioneer DDJ SX Controller, running out to a pair of $2000 EV PA speakers. The controller has two dedicated channels for Mics. I hooked everything up as normal, but realized there was a very irritating scratchy sound quality to the mics. I played around with the volumes and gains and everything, first, to eliminate those from the equation. I ended up really needing to EQ the High's, Mid's and Low's on the DJ Controller to get the mics where I wanted them. I also suggest buying a pair of ball type windscreens for the mics, as these will warm the sound up a bit and help minimize popping when speaking. I never experienced that scratchy quality before in any of my mics (especially the other Fifine's I have), so I thought it quite odd. I didn't panic, because, again, I was able to get them sounding pretty much how I wanted them, but out the box, they needed a LOT of coaxing. Now I mention this because not everyone buying these mics are professionals nor have equipment that can manipulate sound to the degree professional equipment can. So, if you are buying these to hook up to a low-end PA speaker, without EQ's, the sound might not be to your liking, until you can figure how to manipulate it. This can NOT be done with just the volume on the receiver.After I got the sound EQ'd to my liking, the mics worked perfectly. For my outdoor gigs, I was able to have the emcees be about 30-50 feet away throughout the events, and never had interference or fading or anything at all. They sounded and performed quite well. I don't think I'd be in a situation where the mics would be 80 feet from the booth, BUT, if they needed to be, I'd be confident they'd perform well.[BUILD QUALITY]I really like the build quality. Like another set of Fifine's I have, these mics are built quite well. The receiver is made of metal and so are the antennas. Very solid feeling and durable...thus the reason I got these for my outdoor gigs. The cables that come with the set aren't some crazy expensive HOSA cables, but they work just fine for the needed application and don't feel cheap or uber cheesy in any way. What about the mics??? Like everything else, their build quality is top notch. The body is made of really tough gray plastic with aluminum/metal grills. Another thing I LOVE about these mics is that they not only have an LCD screen displaying the mic frequency, they also tell the Mic name, like Mic A or B. This is helpful for when you are messing with the volume on the receiver; these being features seen in more expensive mics. A PRO TIP: By a few sets of rechargeable AA batteries. You'll thank me in the future.All in all, I really like everything about these mics, from the build quality to the overall sound, once I was able to eliminate some of the "scratch". I'd recommend these mics to anyone that has a need for wireless mics.

Good sounding microphone. I have not had any problem with signal or frequency drops. I don't know if the company does anything with warranty. Mine lasted long enough and were treated roughly enough and sounded good enough that I feel I got my money's worth. Every review that says the microphone broke with what they consider regular use for a tour grade SM58 is probably true. All of mine that I can still find are taped together and they sound great. I only use the broken ones where they'll be still on a stand. If the sound quality is important to you and you're looking at this price point, this is the best there is. I don't bet on sports. I buy cheap microphones like lottery tickets. This one is a winner, but the tax is that the hand unit is fragile.The unit that I know would sound better and be as durable costs ten times what this one costs. The Pyle unit that looks like this one is terrible on vocals but makes a tinny bass drum sound phat. I have a set of wireless microphones that make great overhead condenser style for cymbals or a choir that overdrive when sang directly into and static when handled.At this price point you can't have everything. I have a set that works good and is durable but doesn't sound this good. I have another set that sounds good but only works within 15 feet of the receiver. Some are only line of sight. I have one with a perfectly durable handset, great range stable and it sounds great. The dang receiver cuts off with any power blips. Now I know a microphone receiver needs a dependable toggle. Fifine, this brand, makes a durable handset in a single microphone that's less than half the price, but, the receiver takes batteries and the batteries will run out in the middle. Looking to figure how to hardwire that one. Anyway, this unit's issue is handset durability. If you know how to reinforce the weak spots with tape it'll last longer. This microphone sounds better than the entry level high dollar brand microphones. This is a predictable reliable disposable microphone. Buy another when it breaks. It's a good sounding $60 microphone. Yes you can use the pair, but if you're using it with a singer, keep the second in the case for when the first one breaks. Your PA will already be set.The little mixer is great if you want to run a phone through the PA and you just want an untrained person to have a volume nob and not the full PA control. I set this unit up with a powered speaker for my son's mom. She absolutely refuses to learn anything tech. She had no problems with clearly labeled volume nobs. I fully expected it to be broken. It worked fine. No worries.I definitely think it's worth the money. It's definitely not a tour grade microphone. I'm going to try taping a cushion on the next one I get. And I will get another one after covid 19 because it's predictable and reliable and disposable. I reviewed the reliable durable microphone for another company. It doesn't sound as good as this fragile one.If you have the money to buy better, please do. If you know what better costs, please don't be mad when these aren't that. Predictable, reliable, disposable with best in cheap class sound.
