Phenyx ProUHF Mono Wireless in-Ear Monitor System, Metal Wireless IEM System, Bodypack Receiver, 50 Adjustable Frequencies, Separate Outputs, 164ft Operation, Suitable for Band and Studio (PTM-11)

I'm surprised to be completely honest. To be able to get clear sound from a unit that is at least $500 less than an intro Shure product. Obviously you must understand that there are some huge differences between a shure and a this model and I'm in no way saying that is better in any way but to say I'm not surprised that this unit is even usable for the price is awesome. In addition it's easy better than I ever thought possible. It sounds really clear, set up is super easy. The EQ and Limiter function is a bit haphazard. I first bought the mono version but I hated that it only had a 1/4 quarter jack out so I upgraded and I like tge combo jack option so now I don't have to use a funky specialty cord to plug into the output of the mixer. The quality is the same between the 11 and 10 models. The only difference between the 2 are the EQ, BALANCE, LIMTER, MONO/STEREO FUNCTIONS AND A COMBO JACK XLR/1/4 IN.Also battery life is really good.If you don't have the cash to buy Shure and really need to use IEMS. This is a solid choice in my opinion.Headphones that come with it are trash don't bother.

Unboxing: When unboxing the Phenyx Pro PTM-11, the first thing that caught my attention was the sturdy hard plastic carrying case, which provides excellent padding for protection. The case also offers extra room, allowing me to store multiple pairs of IEMs and the cable used to connect the transmitter to the mixer. A very nice touch, especially for a klutz like me.Setup: Setting up the PTM-11 was a breeze, following simple instructions to bind the receiver to the transmitter, a process that took only a few seconds. Although changing frequencies before each use wasn't strictly necessary, I did so occasionally to test performance across frequencies.Performance: I thoroughly tested the PTM-11 in various environments:• It performed flawlessly during three in-home practices and two live performances, providing clear audio, without any dropouts, in standard performance settings where the receiver was close to the transmitter.• The long-range capability was particularly impressive:o During a rehearsal in my basement studio at the back of my house, I was able to hear the band clearly even when I walked to the front door and 30 feet outside.o In an old church basement with concrete walls, reception remained perfect up to about 80 feet from the stage, although dropouts occurred when I exited the performance space, through a back exit to an adjacent hallway. An extreme scenario unlikely in typical performances.o At a community ballroom concert with seating for about 300 people, reception remained strong at around 100 feet from the stage, with occasional dropouts upon leaving through the back entrance about 120 feet from the transmitter. Another uncommon situation.• The provided headphones exceeded expectations in terms of performance, though they are basic earbud style, which may not suit everyone's preferences. As someone who prefers over-the-ear headphones, these were less ideal for me. I would recommend investing in IEMs for enhanced comfort and audio quality; inexpensive options are available on Amazon starting at around $15.• The Receiver:o The receiver’s battery life is great. The unit ships with 2 generic AA batteries. I expected them to last a few practices (6 hours at best). I have used them for over 10 hours and I still have 4 out of 4 bars.o The receiver of is significantly better built compared to models from other companies I've used in the past. It feels solidly constructed and features a strong metal belt clip that remained securely attached throughout extended use. This is a notable improvement a over my previous receivers which often had belt clips that failed to stay attached, leading to the inconvenience of keeping it in my pocket.. During one performance, the receiver did pop off my belt when placed on the side and I bent over to grab a cable from the floor. The receiver hit the floor but withstood the impact. Since then, I've opted to wear it on my belt in the back, a common practice among professionals. While this position is fine when standing, it can be somewhat uncomfortable when sitting in a chair with a back.Conclusion: I already own rack IEM system that supports 2 independent mixes and came with 4 receivers. The whole system cost about $40 more then PTU-11. Well, you get what you pay for. 3 members if my band, returned to wired IEMs because of the dropouts on stage.The Phenyx Pro PTM-11 impressed me with its durable build quality, straight forward setup process, and consistent performance across diverse real-world scenarios. It's a reliable choice for musicians and performers seeking a dependable wireless in-ear monitoring system. I will retire my old IEM system and use the PTM=11 going forward.

I use it as a karaoke host to be able clearly hear the mix of music, vocals, and vocal effects. The system wotmrks well and performs as it should. Ear buds only lasted two shows before one bud got snagged and detached. Fortunately, it uses a basic jack. So I just bought a nice pair of over the ear monitor headphones.

Phenyx Pro is the way to go, avoid all those cheap Chinese in-ear systems. I can dial in exactly what I need to hear and how much of it, especially my lead vocals which are loud and clear. This unit has tons of headroom and the price is excellent for professional in-ear systems. It was super easy to select channels and pair the receiver with the transmitter. I have the same opinion regarding their wireless mic systems too. BTW the earbuds that come with the unit are good but I I use better ones that cost around $50, they are model "KZ AS10" which you can find here on Amazon. See photo of my small rehearsal space system.

Excellent quality

It’s a pity, the product itself is an awesome bang for buck option, but it came in a plastic bag, just the transmitter, body pack receptor, adaptor and antennae. The product box, the carry case, the rack mount kit, the user manual and the AA batteries were missing! It came like a used product, the components that did make it to the destination were loose in a plastic bag damaging each other. Oh, the earbuds were also included, but they appear used, they’re dirty. I’m afraid this may happen again if I return it and buy again, and cannot wait another month for it to arrive. The product functions well, but I payed for a new product and I expected to get all the items the publication says I bought.

I have a Quad Cortex and all of my band instruments runs through it. So, I can use the PHONES output to monitor the whole mix. I bought the PTM-11 for live shows but when I first connected it, I heard this awful noise that covered all the mix. I knew this kind of products have higher noise floor, but in this case my mix was pure distortion.I almost returned the product until I realized that the PHONES output was stereo (you are supposed to connect a TRS cable here) but the L and R inputs in the PTM-11 are mono (you should connect a TS cable here). I was connecting a TRS to TRS cable into the PTM-11 and that created a destructive interference between the L and R signals, creating a high-volume distortion that covered all the mix. A simple cable that splits the stereo TRS (photo attached) signal into two separated L and R fixed the issue.Maybe it's obvious that you shouldn't connect a TRS output to a mono input, but I really didn't know that.I'm really happy with this product!
