Sony DWZB30GB Digital Instrument Wireless System - $150 at AMS

[os2k]

Sony DWZB30GB Digital Instrument Wireless System is available at a closeout price of $150 at American
Musical Supply / Zzounds / Same Day Music. It is still priced around $399 at most other retailers.

I just received mine yesterday and at first glance the build quality is top notch.

Here is the link to AMS's site for reference

I just ordered one and used a promo code to get an additional $10 off. Hopefully this thing works as good as the reviews say!

Is that promo code available for anyone else?

I just found one using Google, put it in, and hit Apply. It initially told me that Sony doesn't participate in promotional programs, but then when I checked out, it showed a "Happy Birthday" $10 discount.

I just ordered mine today. Been curious to try wireless. Fingers crossed.

I used the wireless system on Friday at a gig. The supplied power supply added some noise to my rig - probably bad wiring at the venue. I used a 9v power supply instead and the hum was gone. Other than that, there is no difference in sound between the Sony wireless and cable.

Just ordered one. Hope it works better than my Line 6 G30 (I get momentary drop-outs at the worst possible times). Thanks, OP!

(BTW, the promo code 151302 worked for me at AMS too - $10 off.)

Now if I can only find a deal on wireless IEM's I will be completely cord free!

Awesome deal. Just upgrade the stock cable, and you've got a great wireless.

From what I've read, it seems hard to find a replacement, let alone an upgraded cable. Do you happen to have any suggestions for the upgrade? I'd be interested in finding one.

Contact PBass62 on the forums here. He made one for me out of a Mogami cable.

Check out BTPA.com for upgraded cables. I was going to purchase one, but decided to just build my own. Still waiting for parts to ship from Switchcraft to Full Compass...

Thanks, I might check this out after exploring some OOTB options.

Thanks, what is better about these cables other than the connector? Wire gauge (I can't tell from the pic)?

I am not sure. I didn't actually purchase the cable from the above vendor. I was just pointing out availability of replacement cables at a reasonable price. I am not affiliated with the vendor in any way.

I got around to hooking mine up today at home. No noticeable noise yet. I'll be using it at church tomorrow night, so we'll see what happens there.

Anyone who waited, you're in luck. It's today's deal at American Musical for $99.

Thanks for the heads-up! At this price it's a no brainer.

 

[Dondabass]

Thanks Froghat! I just scored one.

It seems to be reviewed well here, and on amazon. Also, the code 151302 works still.

The Sony wireless unit seems to be out of stock...
