Personally I use (3 ea) Sennheiser E835 mics for my shows. But this is what I also own:

5 Behringer XM8500's, they work "ok", not great, but "ok"

1 Wireless Shure SM58, and older VHF model, this one is a terrific mic, I am just too lazy to hook it up,,hehe

1 Audio Technica wireless reference mic, this is is an expensive paper weight, (p.o.s. in my opinion)

1 Radio Shack "thing" that I bought years ago,,,this one just takes up space in the bottom of my extra goodies, it's just an "emergency" mic,,,luckily I have never had that big of an emergency. WHEEEEEWWW.

I would love to add some extra Sennheiser's to my collection. I really love these mics. I have also been toying with the idea of adding the "industry standard" Shure SM58 wired to the mix. My belief is this, the Shures are better for female singers, and the Sennheisers are better for male vocals. So I just might put one of each out on the stands. Another addition would be a wireless headset for myself, just have to "pry" open the wallet open to afford a good one. Dunno if i will actually get one tho. I would if the right "deal" come along on the "right" mic. I just have a hard time justifying getting an expensive mic for my own "vanity"

I mean who wouldn't rather hand out 2 wired SM58's ($200) versus 2 wireless SM58's? ( $800) there really is not benefit.

Too each his own I guess. The hassle of cords is outweighed by the convenience to me every time. I wont be going back to cords except as a backup.

I'm somewhat amazed that others here use these WMS40's for their drunken mics? I'll use my Voco stuff for that I think....
