What transmitter do you own? Why do you like it? and How much did you pay?

I don't own one now because it was always such a pain in the butt to get extra from production for the xmitter (we aren't using a simple and relatively cheap modulus w/tuner anymore). I had a Boxx and it always made production and the assistants happy...though they are pretty $$$. I know a few ops who just use a cable (unless the shot is too complicated) because of the little known health concerns with these little radio stations next to our heads.

 

I wish we had time for the xmitter shootout! Maybe over Xmas break we can put one together to see a few side by side.Charles is a master at setting up this sort of thing -- those years of web-dating on Carney.com has paid off (at least in organizational qualities)

I have been using the Boxx Meridian system for the last 4-5 years and loved it. Simple Plug and play every time .Silence at Video villiage is priceless the director always has a picture. All the guys and girls at Boxx Customer Service in Australia and England have been outstanding .For all of this Yes it comes at a price $15K each But they have paid for themselves .So much so I now own 4 systems .

I own Paralinx products. I have an Arrow+ with receivers attached to SmallHD monitors. It works great and always a hit on set.

I also have now the Arrow-X, which shares the same chassis with the Tomahawk. It works great, with the advertised range of 700ft seeming very conservative, as I have had great success through all sorts of walls as well.

Service is top notch. They get back to you within a few hours. Once I had a TX get wet, and they sent a loaner overnight immediately, so I had it next day. They are very attentive. Can't go wrong with them...
