Review on 🎸 LEKATO 5.8Hz Wireless Guitar System - Wireless Audio Electric Guitar Transmitter Receiver - 4 Channels Transmission Range - High Frequency - Rechargeable Battery by Ryan Lawson

I've had this wireless system for a few weeks now and can only say I'm very impressed. As an engineer, I couldn't help but confirm the specifications of this device. Latency at close range (see photo) is just over 6ms and the output at the receiver appears to be inverted with respect to the input at the transmitter. To put this in perspective, this delay is due to a timing error caused by the speed of sound when you're about 7 feet from the drummer. this. it is irrelevant. Another thing I noticed is that the transmitter can take up to 2 volts peak to peak before clipping. It's huge. If you're producing that much with your active pickups, you can lower the pickup height and use pickups with a lower output that's still big enough to drive the amp a lot. The battery life of my device seems to be excellent. After about 5 hours, a flashing red battery warning appears on the transmitter. After it starts flashing, I get an extra hour of work before the transmitter turns off. The receiver doesn't even blink when the transmitter dies. This makes sense since the transmitter is actually working harder. 5.8 GHz is a special band. This is above the normal 2.4 and 5GHz bands used by WIFI. This means that the chance of interference is very low. The only downside here is that these higher frequencies have a little more trouble getting through people and walls than old-fashioned wireless devices in the 400-500MHz band. I didn't do a range test outdoors, but indoors I walked about 70 feet between two walls and some fixtures before passing out. At this point there was a noticeable lag in the sound in the air. Staying on the big stage should never be a problem either. The only downside I've noticed is that with an ultra-high gain amp or pedal without a noise gate, replacing the wireless cable with a cable introduces more noise (hiss). Remember that if you approach the amp to hear that hiss and play a chord, you will cause severe ear pain! My point is that there is a hiss, but it's a lot quieter than, say, a 60-bar hum on a single coil pickup. For a live game, that's not too bad. It's still good for recording clean to moderate distortion, but use a cable or noise gate if metal-style recording gives you gain. Overall, for this price point, it's excellent value for money!
