Bit of a pointless question, I'm afraid, without knowing what you want to use them for.

Also, especially for wireless kit, it's helpful to know what country you're based in.

Set your EQ flat and point them at the front of a speaker that they're feeding. That should do it. :beamup:

I have the RE3-ND76 set and like it. I used to have a Sennheiser XSW65 which was ok but the signal range wasn’t great. I had a few drop outs when using 3+ wireless systems. There were a few artefacts to the sound as well which the wired e865 doesn’t have.
The RE3 has much better signal range and I haven’t had a single dropout despite using multiple wireless systems at fairly large outdoor events. Also, the build quality is far superior to the Sennheiser! My only complaint is the ND76 capsule. I find it extremely bright and it can enhance sibilance. I am planning to change this capsule for either the ND96 or RE520 capsule at some point.
