Audio-Technica AT8615RS Reviews
Nothing Fancy but a true work horse
They are not Lippizana stallions more like Clydesdales that toe the line and get the job done. We have used other PTT that have a more fancy button and more stylish. But these are hard core and last for years. Not only on the PTT button but the XLR input which break down after lots of handling. And we never buy the bases that have an output mic cable coming out. They break more easily like those darn power supplies. Always get an output XLR jack on the base. This way you replace the bad mic cable and you are not down a mic the day of the meeting. We have over 80 mic bases and they rarely need maintenance.
Not Well Designed
The Good: Looks nice. Well-weighted base for solid feel. Lock-on switch. The Bad: Switch isn't lighted. Up position is on, unlike most other devices. I was mostly disappointed in the switch on this unit - a lighted switch might have cost another dollar, and would indicate at a glance if the mic is on or off. And an up is on switch is counterintuitive. It's also not easy to see if it's up or down due to its short throw, making a light even more important.
