Members nchangin Posted February 19, 2013 Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 Howdy folks. Does such a quality product exist for wireless audio? Once a year I make a trip to (wefest.com) and we camp in an Ice Cabin (link below is not the actual unit but that is the size)http://fishhouseforsale.com/8-x-16-wheelhouse-4/I use zed 10 fx inside the cabin running off laptop and set it up next to the stove right inside the door. PA is a B52 Matrix 1000 and the sub I lock and cable to the axle and stack on 2 x 4's in case deep rain, then I set the 10" satellites outside as needed and lock them inside at night. The pa is fed by xlr cabling ran through a fish hole to the sub.It is a hassle going into the camper to put in requests/switch tracks etc. I would like to run the laptop outside if at all possible for quick access and DJing and may be looking at running video this year. I could run a long unbalanced headphone line to the mixer, but that's more cabling, which I am trying to reduce. I found this: http://www.mcmelectronics.com/product/DISTRIBUTED-BY-MCM-MB1000-/80-7300Question 1: Would there be a degradation in audio quality that would be substantial? I have found other products but they specifically state 30 feet line-of-site, which I do not see as a stable solution due to the mixer being inside the RV. Anyone know of any other products? Would be looking for something with preferrably a smaller USB dongle? Question 2: A little OT re power surges this is what I believe to be a standard I think (be nice to me here) 220 RV hook up which is what 30 amp? Everytime someone's AC turns on (many many RVs lined up) there is a potential for audio drop out which is faint however annoying, is there anyway to resolve this? Thought about bringing my furman, but I suspect that wouldn't cure the issue. Thanks everyone for input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members agedhorse Posted February 19, 2013 Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 Much better solution would be a stereo wireless IEM system. I use an Audio Technica M-3 for situations like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stangconv Posted February 19, 2013 Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 Apple AirPort Express, use airplay to send the tunes to the mixer. 1/8 out to the mixer. Run tunes off iTunes or an iPod with no cable. Cost $100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stangconv Posted February 19, 2013 Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 I use the express for my dl1608 then AirPlay to play break music from anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dboomer Posted February 19, 2013 Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 I wouldn't imagine much more than 30 feet line of sight with this one either. In any event non LOS you can probably cut that another 50% or more. You're looking for a smaller dongle ... really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nchangin Posted February 19, 2013 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2013 Smaller dongle if possible sure why not, less chance of damage, just an inquiry, thank you to everyone for posts will review the posts at home tonight, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
