I'm sick of getting tangled when I try and pull awesome moves* and jump off the stage and shit, so I'm considering getting a wireless. At the same time it seems like a pretty good way of introducing an unreliable element into my rig - I have good cables and enjoy being able to plug in and not worry about my signal dying. So fuzz bros- any experience with wireless systems? Am I considering a massive world of hurt when it comes to set up times and reliability? Can I still do said awesome moves without worry about trashing the wireless sender which I'm guessing is somewhere on me? Which brands rule or suck?
*"awesome moves" may be synonymous with "cheesy metal crap". But I like cheese.
Would I be radder with a wireless?

Re: Would I be radder with a wireless?
I used a sennheiser wireless system for a couple years and switched back to cables.
I tended to get caught in regular cables because of my flailing and general clumsiness. Dropped my wireless for coily cables last year and feel much better now. Not getting wrapped up and not having to deal with batteries is great.
Sounds wise, I'm sure no one else could tell the difference, but when I first switched back to cables I definitely could.
For the record, I've run the gamete of the standard issue hardcore/metal moves, aside from the over-the-shoulder throws.

Re: Would I be radder with a wireless?
I once wanted to go wireless too... then I realized that it is not possible because my setup needs to "see" my guitar (the feedback loop, etc. needs my guitar pickups to function properly) directly (pickups impedance, yo!). So a wireless is not possible for me.. well.. it would be, but then I couldn't pull off my cool pickup selector synth machine feedback loop sound.
Anyways, I think if you don't need your guitars impedance for your rig to function properly and don't mind recharging/changing batteries on the wireless packs I'd go for it. I heard good things about those Line6 G-Series Systems... but they're pricey, right? I highly suggest investing in something professional, so that you don't get interference on your frequency.

Hmm, there's some food for thought here...
