Audio bandwidth beats all others I've seen:
35hz - 20khz for both body pack and receiver.

Still, that's very interesting to me as a bass player, thanks Alpha!
It also gives that spec as ±2dB which is odd. Normally the frequency cut off points are measure to the standard -3dB point. [rheotorical] Does that mean ±2 over the full range, meaning it's very flat, or does it mean something entirely different!? [/rheotorical] Nothing I hate more than vague specs, and I've NEVER seen a fully disclosed frequency response spec from ANY manufacturer.

Built like a brick sh*#-house. Metal body pack transmitter. Metal receiver. Uses two AA batteries. | the ew172G2 really is the best bang for the buck, it's true. tone is great, built tough, enough channels to do a country-wide tour (at least), and less that $500!
only problems: it doesn't come with a case or rack adapter. you can get those seperate if you want. not that big a deal, anyway.

Built-in feedback suppressor, good, transparent compressor, incredible battery life, all-metal construction. I borrowed one for a few months--with just the antennae inluded with the unit and no boosters, the range was easily 250 ft (started hearing a delay from the time I saw my drummer hit the snare and when I heard it before I started walking back into the studio when we tested range), and nothing short of cinderblock walls stopped the signal. Multiple selectable frequencies, too. Unfortunately, I couldn't pony up the $1400 to buy the dual channel unit with wireless OM5 and beltpack, but my singer and I had a sweet ride while it lasted...
