I'm trying to find earset wireless microphone packages. (A rack would be nice of around 16) Particularly Sennheiser or Shure. Does anyone know where I can find them?
I just stumbled across this site and thought I'd chime in. I've been having great luck with the Lectrosonics equipment lately for multi-channel wireless setups like what you are looking for. Sennheiser is also good - I've put in a fair number of their 3000 Series stuff, but it's very expensive and IMO the Lectrosonics stuff sounds even better and is half the cost. Where are you located? I might be able to suggest some re-sellers and installers I've worked with.
$6,500 for 16 rack mounted mics? By the time you account for the rack and antenna and power distribution, that's maybe $350 per mic.On second thought I think we're going to do without Sennheiser or Shure. We're probably going to go for lower end stuff since we're dealing with high schoolers. Also the more mics the better! Budget is $6,500. Thanks

You mentioned that you were replacing the mics because of the 700MHz issues, it might help to let us know specifically what models you are replacing as that might give some reference for what would be a good replacement. Otherwise, look at some of the other recent threads regarding wireless systems and you'll find that you're probably realistically looking at at least something like the Audio-Technica 3000 series or Sennheiser G3 EW100 series or Shure ULX series for a multiple channel, theatre application. Then you have to add the related antenna distribution, rack, cabling, etc. And you may want something better and more durable than the headset mics that come packaged as part of the wireless headset systems or if not, maybe some replacement headsets to have on hand. That's going to be way over your budget.
Based on that it sounds like you may want to consider either finding more money or reducing your expectations on the number of wireless system you'll be able to get.
Except that the B3 is a lav and they apparently want earset mics.Stay away from the Microphone Madness mics...get Countryman B3's. At $150/ea they're really not all that expensive.
