That was a really good presentation of the two systems - you deserve a lot more subscribers! +1 here.

Thank you! I'd like to think I'd have more subscribers if I actually posted videos. Life got insanely busy after this video :/ I really appreciate you watching it! Now to find a good idea for another video...

Thank you!! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! They don’t sound quite as good as the G4’s but man are they an absolute steal and so worth it.

This is a pretty pointless comparison TBH. Size? They both easily mount to a belt or inside a pocket. Size only matters when it comes to concealing the mic capsule. Cost? The price differences are pretty straightforward and doesn't need anyone to explain. 32-bit float? Awesome. You're still limited to the 132 dB dynamic range of the mic preamp, which means 32-float is completely meaningless in this product. You *should* have compared wireless range, interference tolerance/avoidance, signal-to-noise ratio, dynamic range, and battery life. These are the stuff that pros actually care about in a wireless lav kit and which the G4s are superior in each measure. To be honest, it baffles me that you consider non user-replaceable batteries a plus? Have you never worked an event that lasted longer than the batteries? I need to be able to rip out dead batteries and swap in new ones in 60 seconds. Not wait hours for the device to recharge itself. God I hate all this "influencer grade" crap treated as if it were good enough for professional use.

reason it's cheaper is because it uses free digital 2.4ghz instead of radio where they need to pay for license.

I read some of your other comments where you say the audio from the G4s are better. Is that due to the mics, or the transmission? What about the Rode Pro with a better mic internal recording/ no transmission? I want to use it for live musicians, so I want great audio, but Sennheiser is so expensive.

The mics that come with the sennheiser are much better. Transmission wise I prefer the Rode. The Sennheiser has transmission issues if you’re not constantly finding the right frequency which is annoying to do in a high pressure situation. I don’t have that issue with the Rode. I really regret messing up my audio when recording this since I had a side by side 😩 I haven’t tried my Sennheiser mics on the Rode, so that’d be an interesting experiment. If I ever have time to film another video maybe I’ll do full side by side testing.

hey friend hello, why don't you compare the sounds of these two? This is exactly what I'm looking for and there is no one else doing it.

I was going to in a short follow up video but then work got crazy :/ I will say just straight up the Sennheiser’s sound much better. BUT it depends on what you need them for. If the audience won’t know the difference and you can do just a little bit of work in post then the Rode’s will be great. The Sennheiser’s better sound better at their price point and they’re a staple in the industry for over a decade for a reason.

Fantastic video, thanks Steven. What would you recommend for KZitem Content - specifically education/language teaching vlog type stuff in a home office? I'm leaning towards the Rode, but I want to make sure I have great quality audio for my content. Cheers. @@StevenIrvineVideo

@@steveperry4243 thank you for the kind words! You have 2 options really. My preference for talking head is always a shotgun/boom mic. Much better audio quality out of even a low end shotgun than out of a lav. Even the budget Sennheiser MKE600 will sound fuller than the Sennheiser G4 lavs. That being said if your room has a lot of reverb and you have a lot of background noise (kids, construction, cars passing, etc) then the lav will be a better choice and the Rode Wireless Pro’s sound good. They don’t sound like the G4’s but at their price they can’t. I honestly wouldn’t suggest the G4’s to anyone unless you’re going into a full production, short film, or broadcast where the G4’s have been a staple for years anyway.

@@StevenIrvineVideo Thanks for the pro tips. I'll explore the option of shotgun - maybe rent one and see how it sounds in my space.....and actually I might be able to find some kind of holiday discount/deal around this time of a year too. Anyway, thanks. Looking forward to watching your channel grow.

Hi again Steven. My space(s) is untreated, and not super noisy but not super quiet either - apartment life is so random noise-wise. I have an unopened Go Wireless II that I can return for full refund and get Wireless Pro (or just keep GO II), and/or invest in shotgun as you mentioned in similar price range, or a dynamic in that price range (had my eyes on the SE Dynacaster in particular). Considering I'm working in untreated apartment spaces, Any final thoughts or suggestions before I start swiping my bank card? Many thanks! @@StevenIrvineVideo
