Xvive Audio U3 Reviews

Excellent choice !!!

Very reliable item, works as description. Sound good, even at long distance. My only issue is that you need to tight well on the mic to avoid loose connection. Works great with my SM 57 beta.

I never realized how inconvenient mic cables were until I went wireless with this Xvive system. Be aware that not every battery powered condenser mic will work with this as I've had a high pitched hum with my Sennhesier ME6. This worked flawlessly with my Rode M3. Customer service responds in record time via email from China and I have absolutely no complaints there. Every product question I've had has been answered within 24 hours by Nancy or Grace from Mainland China. This is a good product. I own two of these and two Xvive U3C wireless systems and they've worked flawlessly.

I have used this for Jam nights and even a comedy night. I use with Shure SM58. Works great! I would like to see an upgrade to supply phantom power for condensers, but still fully happy as is.

Easy to use, compact size

There are many good things to say about this, but there is one imperfect thing... the noise level is quite obvious when I compare it with using XLR cable for direct connection.

Distance is an issue

Works very well when you are close, but using them at a news conference can be tough if your audio recorder is more than 30 yards away from the transmitter.

Excelent

Can the transmitter be plugged into a soundboard's XLR main output and can the receiver be plugged into the XLR input of the Canon XA11 Camcorder (B&H # CAXA11 MFR # 2218C002)? If so, should the XA11's input be set to Line, MIC, or MIC +48?
Asked by: Kenneth
After looking at the specs on the Xvive Audio U3 2.4 GHz Digital Wireless Microphone System (Xvive), I saw that it has a maximum input level of 2.8 V p-p in Mic Mode and 7 V p-p in Line Mode. My mixer has +4dBu outputs. That's approximately 1.23 Volts which is below the maximum input levels of the Xvive. With that said, I decided to give it a try and it worked. One drawback to consider. The Xvive has a thick form factor. After plugging it into the Canon XA11 Camcorder, I could not remove it. The release button on the XA11 is blocked by the body of the Xvive. I guess it will just have to stay there so I am glad that it works.

Can this be used to connect a mixer with speakers?
Asked by: Oliver
Yes, the transmitter for the Xvive Audio U3 2.4 GHz Digital Wireless Microphone System accepts line level input signal so the system can be used to connect a mixer with speakers. Keep in mind that this system has an operating range of up to 90 feet line of sight.

I have a C100 MK 2, was thinking that this would be great to use with a shotgun Mic. Plug one end into the XLR in the upper handle and the other into the XLR on the Mic. This should work well, correct?
Asked by: Noah J
You would have to plug the mic into the transmitter and the receiver into a recorder, camera or mixer. This is only made for dynamic mic's. So no phantom power.
