Hi gents, I would like to buy a wireless system for my bass. But, I only use angled jacks because with straight ones my right leg bumps in to it, producing an horrible sound. Unfortunately most wireless systems use their own plug-in system. Generally, the sets contain a straight jack. Moreover, it is difficult, and pretty expensive, to get an angled one. It also seem that the few wireless brands that sell such a cable, don't produce very reliable ones... So... Is there a wireless set that can be used with a good angle cable ? And where can one find such a cable in Europe ? Best regards.
I am talking about the connection into the transmitter, not into the bass. The Sony, for example, seem to use a 1/8" (stereo ?) jack... Am I clearer ?
it is not the end that plugs into the bass, it is the end that plugs into the belt/strap pack that is the issue. At least on my Sennheiser
i'm confused, i think different people are talking about right-angle 1/4" plugs to go into the bass (not a big deal, just get one soldered onto the cable) and right-angle mini-plugs at the beltpack, which is just weird. for the beltpack, you just mount it on your strap or belt or whatever in such a way that the cable goes straight in the direction you want it to go. my line 6 pack for instance lets you remove and turn the metal spring clip part so it'll mount in any direction.
I'm using the pretty-damned-excellent Line 6 G30. It uses a standard quarter inch plug on both ends. The G50, next up in the line, uses a proprietary plug on the transmitter end. Its main advantage is more range, so if you don't need that for where you play, then the G30 is a fine choice with plenty of range, and since it doesn't use a compander circuit (its all digital) its frequency range is wider than my rig is capable of reproducing.
I'm confused with the OP's post also.. there are quite a few after-market vendors that supply right angle 1/4" (bass-end) jacks with the appropriate vendor connection on the body pack end. for example in europe: https://uk.storeslider.com/bespoke-line6-relay-g50-g55-g90-wireless-guitar-301429806030e.html evilbay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/sis.html?_n...Straight Jack Cable Lead&_itemId=300807494133 http://btpa.com/Line-6-X2/
Okay, I wasn't clear in my description... I want a 1/4" angled jack and a regular 1/8" jack for a Sony or any connexion that would plug into the transmitter. Just what your links point to in fact. Many thanks.
I have a Line6 G30 that uses any standard 1/4" jack on both ends (transmitter and Receiver), including right angle. I haven't had any problems whatsoever with this set up.
yup ... Line 6 G30 and make whatever cable your heart desires as it uses regular 1/4" TS plugs at each end ...
I feel your pain. I bought the new Shure digital wireless (great unit btw ) and they just don't make the specific cable for the transmitter with an angled jack. So I purchased an identical gold neutrik angled Jack, removed the original straight Jack and soldered the new one to the cable that goes to transmitter. Worked perfect!
Are you looking for an angled cable to the bass or to the transmitter? I'm still not quite clear what you're looking for? I posted a link to a cable with an angled plug to the bass specifically for the Shure units. Here is a link for both styles. http://btpa.com/Sony/
