Dual UHF Digital Wireless Handheld Microphone System PDP-2-2H | 2 Dynamic Handheld Mics, Mini Receiver, 15 Frequency Groups, Metal Build, Karaoke, Church Services, DJ Sets

I am a mobile DJ event business owner. I am mostly a Shure / Sennheiser guy but after a few events with my Shure's having some drops and interference I decided to look around to see what's out there. I started my Phenyx Pro journey using their PTU 7000 2H2B for wedding ceremonies. It has not disappointed yet I had set up for a wedding about 200 feet from where the officiant is going to be and it worked flawlessly as expected. (see picture above) As the owner of a mobile DJ and event company we do many events but during this time of year (summer) it is mostly weddings with multiple set up sites and many needs to be mobile. This lead me to try the PDP-2. I want to say the mobility of this handheld is second to none it is battery powered (good battery) and able to be charged by my Everse 8 if needed and plug and play (for the most part and I'll get to that) I used these at three different events and after the events I was blown away at the use of them. Let me tell you that as a Shure / Sennheiser at these mobile outdoor events I couldn't hear a difference between the Phenyx Pro that I own. I will say for my voice being low this mic can be a bit punchy plugged directly into the speaker but through a mixer I can adjust it to sound as good as anything else I own The feel of these mics feel good with a full metal handle and easy to install batteries and change channel if you need to. My only concern is the antennae on the receiver but I created a space in my small cable bag where it's protected. The first event I used this plugged directly into a speaker to make announcements at a cocktail site (separate from ceremony and reception areas). Plugged directly into the Everse 8 I found it to be clear. and again the mobility here was what I needed most. The second event I used it for both a cocktail mic and a reception mic for my own announcements. Let me say that I replaced my Shure mic for my announcements during the reception again I was very happy with these and the mic itself is very study and I'm happy to say that you don't get the tapping sound that I use to get on my Shure mic that I use for my own announcements. The third event is where I was sold that these mics are great for me. It was a 4 site wedding (Ceremony, Cocktail, Dinner / Toasts lastly dance party) I used these mics for the cocktail and during dinner announcements and the toasts. During my sound tests there were drops on the channel I was on but after a very easy and quick change of channel it was rock solid(this is what I mentioned above about it being plug and play). For the Cocktail I knew what to expect as I've used these before in this situation but if you look above at the picture I have very little room to place speakers the dinner site was tight with all the guests. I connected my two everse and utilized the Phenyx Pro PDP-2 for all announcements and toasts for the duration of this part of the event. The room was in an odd T shaped with large pillars in the middle and you would think most of the toasts were done at the head table so clear line of sight HOWEVER the father of the bride wanted a podium for all his notes. So his positioning was around the corner of the T and behind both the pillars about 50 feet away. I was nervous as I advised him it's better for mics to have line of sight. He was adamant about the positioning and the podium being behind the pillars. I am very happy to say these mics were incredible and lossless. all the toasts were incredible both sound quality and again the pure mobility of these won the day for this event. I can say after the second event which I had one of my other Dj's out with me he went out and bought some Phenyx Pro products for his own since he really liked the use, the sound and portability of this product. Last thought is that for what I do there are tools that work great but remember not all tools are perfect for every job. Make sure you have the right tools but if you're looking for a battery powered mic system that is plug and play that is small with great mobility and portability this mic system is perfect for you.

Phenyx PDP-2 wireless microphone review First - a disclaimer. Phenyx supplied these wireless microphones for us to test and review with no strings attached. A good or bad is welcomed by them - they just want open review. I have no financial interests in the company. So you do not need to read the whole review below - I like this wireless microphone product and it is a great buy. We have used Phenyx products before and they have performed flawlessly, including similar wireless microphones. I recommend them as a general purpose wireless microphone system. Also, all our performance equipment, including our amplifier, must be battery powered because we perform where no power is available. This rules out high end equipment that has AC powered receivers for wireless equipment that allows for better volume adjustments. Let's dig in. It is obvious that the paper pouch Amazon used for shipping did not protect the box. We typically use the box to protect the product from gig to gig. We will need to purchase a carrying box for these. First impression is that the product is high quality and professionally packaged with pride in their product. Even the instructions are in English and fairly well written - unusual for imported products. The microphones and receiver are solid and with high end feel, including the buttons. The microphones use AA batteries which is good and bad. The good - they are easily replaced if they run out of power while being used which cannot be done with microphones that have an internal fixed rechargeable battery. The fixed internal batteries will also die over time rendering the rechargeable microphones useless so these Phenyx microphones have the advantage because it is easy to have spare batteries with you. Bad - creates a lot of toxic waste. That said, rechargeable AA batteries are the way to go, but the documentation does not recommend what type of rechargeable battery to use whether typical NiCad or lithium. Battery life in our other wireless microphones has been stellar - I have never documented how long the batteries last because I do not care as long as they do not run out in the middle of a performance, and never had because the charge indicator works great. The microphones arrive preset for main channels A and B - nice touch. The aluminum cylinder unscrews allowing battery replacement, two AA batteries per microphone, and for accessing the frequency channel change button preventing accidental changes when the cylinder is screwed on. The plastic cap on the end of the microphone unscrews but there is no reason to unscrew this cap, and is likely plastic because the transmitting antenna is located there and metal would shield the signal. Each microphone has 15 frequency channels that are unique to each channel which is unique compared to other wireless microphones I have used - prevents accidentally using the same frequency for each mic and allows more frequencies to select to avoid interference from other devices that may be in the area. The microphone power button requires some effort to depress, and this is good because it prevents accidental presses. The button powers the microphone on and off, plus a simple press will mute the microphone when it is powered on. Nice. The nice blue crisp display is always on, lit or timed-out dim mode, and not a distraction. The display indicates battery state of charge, signal strength, channel A or B, frequency channel number, and if the microphone is muted. Sound quality is excellent for vocals, which is how we use them at church. I did not test frequency response range or test with an acoustic musical instrument as we use another wireless product with our instruments. The inclusion of a foam cover for each microphone is nice touch - we trade off a minor sound quality reduction for reducing pop when the covers are being used. The only improvement that I would like added to the microphones is a volume control on each microphone because both microphones feed into one receiver that does not have any volume controls. Our other microphone set from another vendor has this feature on each microphone. I guess we could purchase another receiver, if I knew how to do this, allowing each wireless microphone to feed its A or B signal into separate amplifier inputs thus allowing volume and tone adjustments for each microphone. (Note to Phenyx - would be nice to have a wireless microphone kit with two microphones with a receiver for each one.) The receiver is solid and well built with an aluminum housing. It supports both microphones with one output and connects to the sound system with a mono 1/4" jack. It is rechargeable using a USB-C connector, and the system includes a USB-A to USB-C short cable but any USB-C charging cable work, and the kit does not include a power adapter - this is not an issue because I have many USB-A power adapters laying around. The instructions do not state if there is a minimum wattage required for charging. The power button on the receiver is very well designed and feels professional. The two LED indicators are basic but shows what you need to know to operate the system - that the microphones are connected and battery charge status. The antenna is weird as no other wireless product I use has one and may be due to the shielding effects of the aluminum housing. That said, this may be the reason that both microphones stay connected with no drops or sound degradation when in use. I have not had this system long enough to check how long the battery lasts, but I may never know as we recharge all equipment after our two masses where the devices are on for about a 4 1/2 hour time frame total and have never had any issues. It also appears that the receiver can be charged with a portable power bank while it is in use. Great for the time when charging was forgotten. Would I buy these if I had too? Yes. They are well built and perform perfectly for what we use them for in church fixed on a microphone stand and powered on for two hours at a time. Sound quality for vocals is great.

I admit, for the price I wasn’t expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised to find out I was mistaken. I am a professional sound guy by trade, so I probably have higher expectations than the average user these microphones are geared towards. The first thing I noticed was how well packaged they were. I was disappointed in the manual as my aging eyes couldn’t make it out. Thankfully there was pdf version nicely located right on the Amazon site. The box included everything you need to get started. A charging cable for the receiver and batteries for the transmitters. So it wasn’t long before they were up and running. The one thing I didn’t expect at this price point was the included wind socks. That was a real surprise. The microphones themselves are made from metal, another surprise. They are standard size and relatively light weight. Set up was as simple as it could be. There aren’t a lot of confusing controls to fuss with. So new users should have no trouble getting started. There are two adapters included. It’s really amazing how much you get for such a moderate price point. I put these mics through a variety of tests to see how they would perform under various conditions. The range was impressive, but you have to pay attention to the orientation of the receiver to get the most out of it. Even with the receiver obscured I was still able to get a very usable distance out of them. One thing I did notice is the indicator screens on the mics were almost impossible to read out doors even in the shade. Although this shouldn’t be a problem once they are set up. The mute button works well but it does make an annoying metallic sound when pressed. I believe if it were made with some high impact plastic that would go away. One thing to remember is both mics are on one receiver, so you can not individually change their levels or equalization. Both mics sounded the same and were equal in volume. The sound is okay. I was able to use eq and get them sounding pretty decent. Overal this was an easy to use decent sounding mic package that would be great for parties and singing karaoke. They would also be an excellent choice for people needing to have a quick and easy public address system where there might be multiple speakers. I was able to plug the receiver into the back of a powered speaker and have a working systems an about two minutes. I can see these being very useful for those that might need a cheap set up for a one off event, or for those that might be getting started. Overall you can’t go wrong with these microphones at this price point.

Used the Phenyx Pro PDP-2-2H at 2 different events with 2 different setups. Event 1 was located in an inside venue. A small (30 people) indoor reception. I used a Yamaha MG10XU mixer. The Phenyx Pro PDP-2-2H was great. Easy setup, clear sound. It did the job well. No hiccups. The event had a four hour duration. Event 2 was outdoor. I used a Rane One dj controller placed inside an Odyssey case. With the Rane One inside the case, it was difficult to connect the Phenyx Pro PDP-2-2H. Luckily, there were “elbow” connections which worked out great and I was able to connect the Phenyx Pro PDP-2-2H. I was able to use the microphone 25 feet away, although later it stopped working. I reset it and it began working again only to stop working again. I’m concluding the case interfered with the wireless connection. Overall, the Phenyx Pro PDP-2-2H is a great wireless microphone. A bit high in tone, which can be eq’ed. It comes in hot so it doesn’t need much. I would recommend this microphone for events that have guest speakers, poets, eMCee’s, etc. This would also work for online events.

I just unboxed my new Phenyx Pro PDP-2 (Dual Wireless Mic System). I ordered on Amazon, and it was here in no time. My first reaction was positive as the mics were solid and felt good in my hands. After charging up the receiver, I had an excellent opportunity to try it out at an outdoor Memorial Day ceremony. The sound was crystal clear with no dropouts noted. Due to the mic’s pick-up pattern, you needed to be close to the mic to achieve the best level. I liked the fact that everything was compact and plugged the ¼ inch jack directly into the back of my loudspeaker. The PDP=2 comes with a handy right-angle adaptor that allows you to plug the receiver in vertically. It also comes with an adapter to plug mic into a 3.5mm plug. Although the transmitter is advertised with a 200 ft range, I wasn’t able to test this limit. I did, however, get great results as far as 75 ft. (It’s rare that I would ever be further than this at any venue.) It is also important to note that the receiver was baking in the hot Florida sun for over an hour and it didn’t seem to negatively impact the performance. All in all, it was a good experience, and I would recommend this to anyone that needs a worry free, quick, and value-priced mic set-up. As always, it would be great if the folks at Phenyx Pro would make their instruction manual with larger font. For some of us, it’s difficult to read the micro print in the manual.

I got my new Phenyx Professional PDP-2 today. All I can say is this thing is awesome. Amazing clarity and range. I tested it using my JBL eon one compact and I also hooked it up to my studio monitors at my office. I have a shared office space and was able to walk all over the building and maintain constant connection and clear sound. Then we came home and my niece and I hooked it up to the jbl. I had her walk down my drive way and down the road never once loosing signal. I can't wait to try this out this weekend using my regular system! This is definitely going to lighten my load on setup! I give it a 10 out of. 10 so far. I will update after the weekend!! 7/26 Update - I used these mics at 2 weddings this weekend. They did amazing. I had to change the channel on one mic and didn't have any issues!
