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)

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.

This unit worked phenomenal for me. It’s small and compact and it comes with a great case. Sound is clear and easy peasy set up and take down. Great unit all the way around and very inexpensive compared with others on the market

Seem to be well made, easy to sync up, works consistently every time, compact, I use mine with my personal on stage mixer at church, I added a clamp on shelf under the stage mixer (mic) stand to support it, I connected it with a Y cord with 1/4” stereo at the mixer to two 1/4” mini plugs to plug into the transmitter,my big question is why does the transmitter label the inputs and outputs as left and right? It’s not stereo!Is there a switch inside that can switch the mode from mono to stereo? Please reply

This is a solid in-ear set for beginners who have never used ears before or musicians looking for a budget set of wireless ears. I've used a few of these Phenyx Pro PTM-11/22 wireless in ear monitor systems in some client playback/IEM rig builds and the clients have been happy with them. The packs are mono, which might not be ideal if you're used to using higher end stereo packs, but for beginners, mono has been just fine.Sound quality is good, a bit noisier than top-end units but definitely useable. Signal strength is good for what they are, but if you're using these on stage you'll want the transmitter side stage not front of house. Line of sight is also important if you want a solid/consistently connected signal without interference. I did a range test once and the connection was strong till about 50 feet.With all that said I'm still happy with them. This unit costs significantly less than what you might consider the "go-to" industry standard IEM systems. And for the price you're paying I think it's more than acceptable for the system to have its "quirks". All and all I recommend them.

I have used Phenyx Pro's wireless microphones before so when it came time to find a replacement for yet another failing Shure IEM system, this was a no brainer for me. Installation went smooth and the build quality of the transmitter unit is nice and sturdy. I appreciate that they included a coax extension for the (really long) antenna so that it can be mounted in the front of my rack, a definitely plus.The receiver is plastic, which is to be expected for the price, and the one place that I wish was a bit more "sturdy" if you will since it will be used by a rather *active* band member, but at these prices I can certainly afford to replace the receiver pack as opposed to the higher priced competitors.Syncing and finding an open channel is a breeze and the sound quality is on par with what it replaced. In fact, we couldn't even tell a difference. I think that the distance that we could get from the transmitter was around 200 ft, however I doubt that we will ever need to get *that* far.Overall I am super happy with this and we will definitely be adding more of these to our IEM rack as time goes on

I purchased this product under a year ago primarily for occasional Zoom meetings. During a call, the audio suddenly cut out—I couldn’t hear anything, and while the device appeared powered on, it lost all connection. I attempted to contact the company for assistance but received no support or resolution.

Just blew all my expectations. Easy to use (just plug and play). Excellent signal (a bit if hiss but it's not noticeable when you start playing). The receivers does not drain the battery (as someone mentioned on a previous comment). The carrying case is a big big plus. The only con that I can think of is that the earplugs are just cheap - but I knew this before buying it.
