LD Systems U308 IEM

Great value for money

For its price range, it's awesome

I bought this because I was worried I wouldn't hear myself sing at my friend's gig.

To that end, this product works very well. I used a pair of Shure SE215-CK's and was able to enjoy a mix just for me, letting me hear my voice clearly. Listening to recordings of the gig, I am pleased with my vocals and it is all down to this product.

I like how easy it is to set it up and get going. It weighs very little and is not a bad looking unit from a distance.

As for cons, it does feel plastic like and doesn't look that great up close. I did experience some interference while I was waiting in the wings, but once I got on stage I had no issues. My primary concern was proper monitoring, to alleviate my anxiety about singing out of tune due to not hearing myself properly.

So, all in all. A great package for the price asked. I just wanted to hear myself sing in a noisy environment, and it delivered. Looking forward to using this in my upcoming gigs.

Great for all occasions!

I play in a 6 piece covers band and all but the drummer use these wireless packs as our IEMs. We play primarily in pubs, hotels and wedding venues. I bought one set to test before everyone else got theirs and so it has been used at least once a week for around 6 months at the time of writing.

I have found there to be very few issues with the sound quality of the unit although it is worth remembering that quality is linked to the headphones used, cheap/low quality headphones will produce a lower quality sound.

I have a wireless instrument pack on my bass as well and sometimes like to wander around when playing (dancing with the crowd etc). I have managed to leave the building and get about 150m down the road with no drop-outs (the instrument pack of a different brand didn't fare as well).

Overall I think this is a great semi-pro IEM system, well worth the money. I have tried some cheaper alternatives over the years and always found that they are just a bit lack-luster. The U308 on the other hand was a breath of fresh air and worked flawlessly out of the box.
