Review on Unleash Your Voice with Audio-Technica System 10 ATW-1102 Wireless Handheld Microphone System by Johnathan Rothstein

I did a lot of research before purchasing this microphone. I'm a karaoke DJ and musician with 37 years of live music experience. The radio part of this microphone is impeccable. Long range, no dips and interference. The sound reproduction was okay, but the bass was lacking. The on/off/mute button is a terrible design, poorly made. Even though it's recessed at the end of the mic, my singers seem to find it and unintentionally mute it during performance. A light touch is enough for me to switch off the microphone. I own 8 months. If you're using it twice a week at this point, the mic is now useless. It turns off with a simple swipe on the mic and randomly turns off during performances (with fresh batteries). The switch is basically broken. It's also hard to turn off. The alkaline battery life is also quite short at 5 hours. I am sending it back to Audio Technica for repair. UPDATE: AudioTechnica replaced the switch and it now works perfectly. For this reason I have raised my rating from 2 to 3 stars.
