Pyle VHF 8-Channel Desktop Conference Microphone System with 8 Gooseneck Mics (PDWM8300) - Rack-Mountable

I give this 2 stars because I have bought this unit in the past and it is a great unit. My deduction is due to the fact the second one I ordered was defective. One mic activated both channel 6 and channel 8. I reached out to the manufacturer regarding this and they said they'd get back to me. No response came so I contacted them again and another promise of a return call and still no response. Inside, there are POTs that I assume control the frequency for each channel and would've been happy to experiment without returning but with no motivation from the manufacturer to correct this issue, there is no motivation from me to experiment with their help.

Works very good. No need to adjust any special or complicated settings, just the volume. The output connects to a microphone inerface then to the Pink connection of PC for a online video conference.

Negative reviews were accurate, some mics aren't picked up by the receiver and there's no way to remedy the issue.

We bought 3 of these systems one microphone stopped working we have been told no parts and no replacement microphones available and no documentation (schematic) if you want a dead end system this is the one to get. Now on a positive note the receivers and the other 23 microphones we have work just fine. It is a shame that we can not recommend these systems because of no replacement parts and no service documentation. We will be looking for another system that has replacement parts and service documentation. We have 117,000 other locations that could use a system like this.

Very happy with the purchase. The system exceeded our expectations.

Bought a year ago for a local non-profit to help them with online meetings. The mics themselves worked okay out of the box and delivered respectable audio quality. A week later one of the mics gave us nothing but static and hissing. Tech support didn't offer any real answers and you cannot buy a replacement mic (or any replacement parts). Two more (total of 3) mics have failed in the past year and we are looking at an alternative. I would not recommend this product.

I installed this in about 30 minutes. Tied it into our amp / computer feed and was able to confirm that all mics were working and the mixer was working correctly. Very satisfied. Will work great for our board room discussions.

Batteries were not included despite a photo in the order info indicating they would be. All of the microphones turned on the first time I used them. The second time I set them up, one of the microphone's ON button would not stay on, and now must be held to allow that one to be used. The application I intended this for is Zoom meetings, adult CE, and bible studies for my church. The system was not recognized by Zoom or my computer when connected directly by the 3/4 inch cord through a patch 3/4 inch female to 1/8 inch male cord into the headphone/microphone jack. I was able to get the system to work as I intended by running the mixer through a Sonus Studio 24C preamp. I suspected I would need to when I purchased it. All in all, it is functioning as advertised, and as someone else said, one less than fully functional microphone was not worth returning the whole system. I have also purchased enough rechargeable 9 Volts to have one in the mics, and one ready to go when needed along with a 10 port charging base. Considering the current prices of batteries, this was worth the investment. **UPDATE** The one mic which would not stay on began working correctly yesterday after I had to hold the button down for an extended period to talk during an Adult CE class!

works great. Purchased as a replacement for older system. Easy to install and operate

Seven of the microphones worked fine. One Mic broadcasts on multiple channels at the same time which causes loud feedback and makes it unusable. In order to have enough sound the settings for every microphone have to be turned to max volume. I contacted customer service about the frequency, setting issue on the bad microphone. The Representative claimed that this could easily be fixed but that it takes many steps, so he would email me the instructions. I questioned his statement because the microphone units and the receiver unit are both sealed systems with no switches or adjustments other than a single on/off power switch. How can I make adjustments when there's no way to access any components? He assured me there was a way to adjust the frequency without opening the unit so I let him know I work in the tech field and would like him to simply read me the steps rather than email them so we could see together. He would not do that. He said he already emailed me the instructions. I told him I am monitoring my emails now and I received nothing from him. He said it can take 24 hours to receive his email. It is now been three days and I have received no such email. If you purchase from this company and have any problems at all, send the product back and order a replacement. They clearly are not going to provide any real customer service until it starts impacting them financially.

I bought three of these systems for conference rooms. All had at least one or two defective microphones. On two of the systems, microphones would broadcast on multiple channels, on the other microphones just would not power on. Reached out to their support who recommended I just return them. I installed these hours away so it would require a lot of time and effort to go pack up the entire systems and return for what I hope could be resolved by replacing or repairing the defective microphones. Their official response was ""As per checking with the parts department, the mics are not available for replacement. "", and they won't service them either. I would avoid purchasing this or anything else from Pyle, unless you are completely ok with only 75% of the mics actually working. For the mics that did work, the system preformed pretty well, wish they would work with me to resolve rather than just tell me to return and try again. Three systems purchased and all of them had problems.

This product came with non working mics like some of the other reviewers. I realized that I would have to return various mics and it would take time to get a working set with no guarantee that they keep working or that something else wouldn't glitch. Not worth messing around with it. I'll search for something better.

System stopped mid use. Doesn't work anymore. I only got to use for a couple hours and it died.

Well made and easy to use with the on/off control conveniently placed on the face of the base.

Good evening, the microphones are on but they are not working. The receiver does not recognize them, it seems.

Purchased for our City Council meetings.

Unit works great. Note if you test with the microphones close to the reciver the harmonics of 2 of the mics will light up 2 channels. Simple solution is to have the these 2 microphone's at least 10 ft away from the receiver. The quality of the microphones is fantastic. The receiver has rack mount ears. So you could build up 4 short jumpers and female to females to move the antennas to a better location on your rack if it is deep.
