Hope you love the unit. For the price they work great. Remember these are completely environmental so be sure to scan every time and get them high with line of site. I always choose to run an XLR cable when possible, but sometimes we don’t have a choice and these are a good option when wireless is needed.
Very well done Rachel. Dotty is adorable "I don't want to be in this video....you have a million songs why are you playing the same song over and over and over and over".... lol
Just recently received this unit and so far LOVING it!! I did however learn the hard way not to turn off the main receiver before turning off the remote one first. I was at my wedding this weekend and turned off the remote receiver about 100 ft away and a loud white noise came out till i turned it back on. That definitely is still a thing :)
Raise you SQ to a little higher number like 3 or 4 sounds like you have yours on 1 or 2. This video made me go back and really under Squelch and now my system is incredible. But for while there I couldn't trust it because my SQ was at 1 or 2 picking up everything even when you scan it had trouble finding a clear ch (It's your SQ). I even sent it in for repair thinking something was wrong with my 2+2 extender packs I own but it was the SQ all along set too low. I'm back in love with ALTO Stealth Pro
Thanks Rachel, Your mom always has a great cameo in your videos. I just purchased an Alto Stealth Pro from Ben at NFLX excited to try it out. Thanks again. Howie in Omaha, NE
I have that system and it DOES have a HORRIBLE noise if it loses power. I had to adjust the squelch to ALMOST the point of cutting out the sound..then back it down slightly. Also I tested the system with it from my garage into the far end of my house...I did in fact get some static. I used it at a event and didn’t have an issue with it. I have my transmitter mounted in a rack in my dj booth. I had to move it down a space from my Shure BLX4R receiver because it did interfere with it. Over all happy with my purchase. I just had to learn and test it to get the proper set-up.
Definitely need to dial it in. But it works well, especially for the price. I will always run a cable when I can, but sometimes we don’t have a choice. There are completely environmental so results may vary. That’s odd, I didn’t get a static noise when it lost power. I haven’t experienced that.
Fantastic review, Rachel! You went to a lot of trouble and set up all those scenarios for us - kudos! The only thing I would've liked to have seen would be a visual of each receiver, in their various locations during your demonstration, to gauge the signal strength at the different distances and through the various obstructions. I just purchased this unit, along with the expansion kit (with 2 additional receivers) so your video will be very helpful. Thanks again!
Great video!....Just a word of caution, I just recently purchased the Alto Stealth Pro unit and according to their website you are supposed to receive in the box Padded Zipper Bags for the transmitter and both receivers. In addition you are supposed to get the BNC front panel antenna connectors and the BNC cable extensions so you can mount antennas on front rack. None of these items I mentioned were included in my new Stealth Pro unit. It appears from watching your video that you did not receive them either, please correct me if I'm wrong. I've emailed Alto support hoping they will ship these items.
An even less obtrusive piggyback cable is the Truetone ACY-US that hooks up directly between the speaker and the original IEC power cable of the speaker and provides an outlet for the power adapter. (One of the venues I perform at provides speakers and they hook up the power - in this case the piggyback cables in the video would be very inconvenient since it would require me to mess with their power wiring that's already in place).
Sometimes love between a mother and daughter is expressed a little differently, ok?? "Get outta here." LOL Awesome review and test, Rachel. Thank you for this!!
I Finally Got This, Upgraded from the Older Version. Sooo Much Better. Your Awesome Review Made Me Get it. Well Both Version of your Videos Made Me Got Both. But I Totally Love This Version. Thank you for Reviewing This. :)
This version is MUCH better than the previous one. Glad they made the upgrade. It’s not a perfect solution but it does well. Glad you’re getting good use out of it.
Appreciate you video. One thing though with the static test. YES! there can be static when the tx is off. It kicks in after a few minutes. beware. Although this model is leagues ahead of the first series.
Thanks for checking this out and the feedback about the static. I’ve never experienced it but I have people tell me they have. I’m not sure why that is. I couldn’t agree more, while it’s not a perfect unit it’s miles better than the first rendition. 💯
Great coverage of the item and the details...what tie pin microphones did you use to record your video sound coverage? Is it a condenser, omnidirectional mic? and what was the gain level you set on it? I am impressed with the coverage of the sound by those mics. Thanks.
Where I think Alto fell short in this package deal is they give the option to front mount the receiver antennae onto the rack mount bracket but they don't include the extension BNC cable to allow you to do so. I'm still upgrading to the Stealth Pro though as I already have the original Alto Stealth as well as the Alto Total. I just think that for the price this unit sells for and the fact that the brackets are already designed to mount the antennae that the extension cables should be included.
This was extremely helpful for me! I have been looking to upgrade from the Alto Stealth because I have had so many gigs where the signal was horrible when I set up speakers in different rooms. This is my next purchase. Thanks
Check this out first. The Alto Stealth Pro works well for the price but there are better options like the one shown here using the Sennheiser body packs. If budget isn’t an issue consider these instead. th-cam.com/video/pfcaP3ZvnZI/w-d-xo.html
Great review and thank you for taking the time to do this! It's truly appreciated. Just in case Alto Professional follows feedback on your presentation: I am a full-time professional and own a number Alto Products and have been very pleased with them; they have performed well. I have been also been considering acquiring these for all of our PA Systems for quite some time, but I am concerned because there seems to be a blackout on user reviews on this PRO-2 Version of across the web. Perhaps Alto Professional could help us, as much as you have, by either backing this with a published rock-solid return/exchange policy, publishing real-time customer feedback and what they are doing to resolve issues, and/or by providing us some additional information to set aside our concerns. Again, thank you Rachel and Best Wishes! BobbyG
Thank you for taking the time to watch this and comment about your experience. I think it is VERY important that companies like ALTO seek out feedback as you have. I can attest that this product is NOT perfect, but as you said they do perform very well especially for the price point. I had trouble myself looking for "solutions" to improve these. Through trial and error, I kind of just figured it out. I will ALWAYS run a cable if possible, but these have helped me out a ton in a lot of complicated DJ setups. Thanks so much for stopping by the channel!
Rachel Thanks again for this old video, I was about to give up on my ALTO Stealth Pro system until I came back and looked at your QS part of this video. I had mines on 1 way to low or tight for my venues. Around 3 or 4 is perfect even 2 at some locations. About where do you kind of keep your numbers on your squelch (1-10)? Thanks
Just thought I'd throw this in the mix.....I just bought two sets of VAM c977 (cheap China) at $75 a set Mic/guitar adaptors on Amazon they sound great. I tried a remote speaker in my garage I'm in my basement so lost line of site a few times and they sound great run on 2.4
thanks for this video, was looking into buying this system for this wedding season and maybe building it into my case permanently, make set up quicker.
Having worked in the professional sound field for over 36 years keep in mind that your relying on a RF signal in a remote residential area when using the transmitter to the receiver at great distance. When you get into a area that has a high level of RF from wifi to cell service and other UHF wireless systems it could possibly become a issue. Other than that it seems to work well.
For multiple speakers. Not that I’m aware of. Or at least not that I would feel comfortable recommending. If you’re just looking to make a powered speaker Bluetooth capable you could use the Alto BAT which is only $40 or so dollars.
Hi Rachel - thank you for making these videos. They have helped me to improve my djing and the equipment I use. I did purchase the Alto Stealth Professional and it works great, however, there are times when I will press the scan button and it just scans and scans…. Have you come across this issue? If so did you find a solve? Also have you ever set up your system and during the event had it start popping and giving interference? Every now and agin this will happen.
Tony Jefford If I understand your question correctly, you’re asking how to connect the receiver pack when using a top and a sub? Most DJs are just linking tops and subs, this would be no different than just running a cable from your mixer... except.. no cable! Thanks for stopping by the channel. 🙂
@@DJRachelLynch thanks so I guess it would be XLR out of receiver into sub then out of sub into tops? Is that correct. Thanks for your time. Great channel by the way
Awesome video Rachel, that was l was looking for, for my satellite speaker that l use for outdoor. You are a good seller! 😂 Have a great and happy Thanksgiving
Brian Park thanks so much for checking it out. I like to make sure people understand what they are buying. Unfortunately due to the weather in time of year I wasn’t able to bring these out to a outdoor gig and test them but I tried my best locally. I’ve used the previous ones at an event and they worked well. These are MUCH better with the mentioned upgrades.
I’m always skeptical about “wireless “especially when you are testing without any other wireless mics connected (as I will), 150+ cellphones, 1200 hotel guests and other signals up for competition. Impressive when you are testing in a rural environment with no extra signals to compete with. 100 foot XLR cable helps me concentrate on the music without any worries of clips or drops.
Allen Gallegos a wired option is ALWAYS a better option but sometimes we don’t have a choice. This is an affordable option for a wireless solution. There are better (more expensive) alternative out there, but it does the job. It is miles better than the previous version.
That alto wireless works great, no drop outs…thats why your mom drops you out in her room..lol …love this portion when your mom react..hahaha..nice video,..
So glad to hear you’re having success with the unit! They have definitely helped me out a few times in a pinch when running a wire just wasn’t possible. Mom wanted to kill me! She was listening to that song all day. 😊
I’ve always had a good experience with this unit. Keep in mind they are environmental. They may work amazing in one spot and have interference issues in another venue. Always best to scan, keep them high, with line of sight. Overall very helpful unit when running a wire isn’t an option.
Great review. Just watched your Xmas video where you are using the Sennheiser. Both look like they get the job done. I assume you still have both available to you? Would love to hear a comparison of the two and which one is your go to and why.
The ALTO STEALTH Pro works great for the price, but there are better options out there hence the Sennheiser EW 100 G4 (which is double the cost). For weddings or events where I only need one speaker, I’ll use the Sennheiser. If I need multiple speakers out like a car show or some thing the alto works well. 🙂 It really boils down to what’s in your budget and how many speakers do you need to be wireless. I always try to run a wire if I can.
I was hoping they would have made the new one with a rechargeable battery. It’s great if you have power but if your using a battery powered speaker at a ceremony or as a fill in reception hall defeats the purpose of said battery powered speaker. Having to having access to power. I will just keep using my xvive u3
I’m sure it is to keep the price point down. It’s a happy medium between affordable and function. There are better wireless battery powered options out there but they are much more expensive unfortunately.
I love this video Rachel! thinking of picking this up myself. I'm guessing like all other wireless receivers, you should scan at the location in which the receiver will be and then bring them to the transmitter and sync or pair them correct? What do you find yourself setting the volume on the transmitter and receivers to be set on? Thanks again!
Thanks for checking this out. I appreciate you stopping by the channel. ☺️ I do a clean scan at every event. There have been a few times when I have had to make adjustments during the event. These are completely environmental so you need to make sure these are dialed in at all times. Get them high and use direct line of site as much as possible. Turn on your loudspeaker, adjust the output level on your mixer, and adjust the Trim controls on the transmitter to hear the audio signal. If you hear noise in the signal, change to a different channel until a clean signal comes through. As for my volume settings, it’s hard to tell because I use several different controllers and speaker types depending on the event these are needed. I always dial them in each time so I can’t recall an exact personal setting. I also haven’t used them in a year so... 😅😂🤷🏼♀️ Stay well. Stay safe!
@@djking_237 it doesn’t have to be as high but having good line of sight will give you a better result. Since these are completely environmental you’ll have to make adjustments as necessary depending on the venue or location.
@@DJRachelLynch Hi Rachel, did you ever do another test on the power loss? I sent you a video with me doing the same thing and I got horrible white noise hiss if you remember. Not sure why it's different for you. :(
Awesome Review Rachel. Few questions. 1. How is it on Windy Conditions. I had problems with my Old Stealth when it was outside of store and it was pretty windy. I was getting alot of drop outs. 2. The XLR Cable that connects from the Receiver to Speaker the connector to the receiver is different from the previous model. It's not straight XLR. And it looks short. Is it ok to attach another xlr to make it longer? If the something goes wrong with that cable.. Will I be able to replace it easily. I want to get a back up cable just in case.
HeadShot Heroes I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence but to my understanding of how UHF works, wind would not effect it in any. Either way, it was a breezy day using these and as you saw everything worked great. 🙂 It is a different cable. It’s a XLR mini to XLR. If you mount it to the speaker with the Velcro or the fly point bolt it’s enough length. However I don’t see why you couldn’t daisychain an extra cable if you needed it to be longer. If you end up purchasing it I hope you love it. 🙂
@@DJRachelLynch the reason why it's short is that I have an Evolve 50 and I place the transmitter on the very top and the sub where you connect the XLR wayyy on the bottom. The previous model is short also... But I didn't worry cause I had spare xlrs to reach it.
Thanks for the video. I usually setup two subs and two tops near me with wires. There are bigger weddings where I would like to set up two more speakers on the other side of the room. How would I go about setting that up? Use the booth outputs to go to the wireless system? Is delay an issue ?
Great review! (as usual). My only question is, are the receivers waterproof or water resistance? How do you protect them from the elements, especially if it suddenly rains?
To my knowledge there is no IP rating. But in reality if they are getting wet, so is your speaker. Nobody should be using any of their audio gear in a wet environment. So you’d do the same thing for these as you would your speakers if it stated to rain… protect them.
Hi Rachel. Question about the alto professional stealth wireless pro system and no pro. Which you recommend to buy on this unit? Because you already used both. Please let me know. Thanks
What do you mean by no pro? The Alto Stealth Pro version is much better than the first one. The upgrades allows you to dial it in better the best result. There are better options than this but they are much more expensive. This works very well for its price point.
This video is a bit older. There are better options out now. I HIGHLY recommend the Sennhesier EW 112 packs. Check out my other video on my ceremony system.
@@djshortyloveit worked very well for me. Line of site is VERY important here. It’s a very environmentally sensitive unit so results may vary venue to venue, but overall it was a solid option. As I said there is better technology available since this unit came out so I sold this and upgraded but this should work well for you.
These like many other products are completely environmental. Make sure you’re always scanning for a clean channel, getting them high and good line of site. They are perfect but for the price they work well. Best of luck! Thanks for stopping by the channel. ☺️
Racheal can you use this alto wireless system to be powered from the Everse 8 battery speaker. And if not, what is a better way to do using the everse8 13 volt power I want to connect two separate speakers without wiring
Has anyone rack-mounted one of these? I'm trying to do that, but I want the antennae in front. I don't know what antenna extension cables / kit to get ...
Hi Rachel, great video! Can you please explain where do you connect the alto xlr into the mixer? From the moment that i have only 2 mains (L&R) that go from the mixer to speakers, i diden't understand how and where to connect the alto wireless.
@@DJRachelLynch Hi Rachel, Just to inform you that after a few days of research of the product here in Italy, it seems that this item is out of production. That's what there saying here. Impossibile to buy. Have you any updates? thanks v m. take care
You hook up your subs as your normally but instead of running your XLR out of your controller/mixer to the speakers, you connect the Alto Base and then connect the packs as shown.
There is no noticeable lag. There will obviously be a delay with speakers placed very far a part. Some speakers have a delay setting (like the Evolve 50) to compensate for this. This will happen regardless of using a wireless option if far enough apart. 🙂
Hey Rachel, Love your videos! Question, I currently have the older Alto wireless system, but like many others you have to work with it and have the line of sight just right to make them work. It’s a little more work, but I make ‘em work. Interested in upgrading. Your opinion .... the New Alto Pro or something like the Senheiser XSW-D? Little about me, I’m a single operator, Wedding DJ mostly, about 75% of the time I need to set up extra speakers to cover sound for cocktail hour and dinner. Usually run the Alto wireless through my booth out, so when the dancing starts, I can turn them off from my controller. Appreciate your time and opinion. Scott MUIR MUIR MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT
Sorry for the delay! I just saw this comment now. This is a BIG upgrade from the previous version you have. I haven’t used the Sennhesier system you mentioned but I do feel my EW100 G4 blows this out of the water but again the price point with both units isn’t really fair. The Sennhesier EW100 is a $600 single mic and double the price. If you like your stealth and are making it work I think the upgrade would be a good move for you.
Thanks Rachel, I was thinking the same thing. With the Stealth Pro, I can do the same as I’ve been doing with the older version of the Alto wireless system. The price is high, and it will be an investment, but it will make my job, that much easier. Thanks for getting back to me.
Hey Rachel, almost three years on...would you still use these? I was about to buy a few more Sennheiser EW-D receivers and bodypacks, but this seems more convenient, as the unit with the display and controls would be at the booth with me.
These work well for the price. If budget isn’t an issue I would recommend the Sennhesier units as they are a more premium wireless solution. But if you need something more budget minded, this is a good option even 3 years later.
The Pro is a better model, but I think it's been discontinued. However, what I showed in this link below is your best option. th-cam.com/video/pfcaP3ZvnZI/w-d-xo.html
DJ DANNY B Yes. 🙂 Works very well. Get it high and scan the channels for the open frequency. Remember these are completely environmental. So it could work perfect in one venue and need adjusting in another. I only use these when I need multiple wireless speakers, otherwise I use my Sennheiser ew100.
Hello very informative video I was looking for something just like this. What is their website I tried typing in NLFX And could not find their website. Thank you very much
Do you know what's the differnece between the Alto Professional Stealth MKII-UHF and the pro verison. The pro is $700 and you really can't find. Great video by the way!
Trying to decide between the Alto Professional Stealth MKII ($399) and the Alto Professional Stealth Pro shown in this video ($749). Any significant difference in performance between the two?
This is a good unit if you need multiple wireless speakers on a budget. There are better options, but they are also much more expensive than the Alto Stealth Pro. I use these at less formal events like large car shows or food truck festivals if I need to spread out sound over long distances. I haven’t had any issue with them, some people hate them. 🤷🏼♀️ For my weddings I use my Sennheiser unit. I usually only need one satellite speaker and this is a more premium option.
Are you still using it? I have one and have rarely used it because I have had horrible static at times. I recently ordered a antenna combiner with a directional antenna to see if it helps.
Hey Rachel, Question, by your recommendation, I purchased the Alto Stealth Pro. When you opened it, was there a clear plastic or tape overnight over the digital readouts, on the transmitter and receivers. When I opened mine, all the readout screens are smudged. And when I tried wiping it off, it won’t come off. I’m wondering if they sent me a used system. Your thoughts?
in your example of "SCAN" for a channel on the receiver, there was ultimately no RF reading. Which is a problem I am having with one of my receivers. I scroll +/- and can't get any RF reading.
You want your RF meter to have the most bars possible. The lower the bars the more congestion there is on that frequency. Scan every time you use and find the most “open” channel. Most of what you’re looking for is explained in the manual. Just a side note… Adjusting the squelch is relatively straightforward. You simply set your mic up (powered on) at the furthest distance (or worst case) you ever expect to use it and adjust the squelch at the receiver until it just gates off your mic. Then move it back up just a little for an extra margin of safety.
Hi Rachel your are the best, questions for you am I looking for the highest RF on the meter when scanning frequencies, also do I adjust the squelch to a higher number if no high RF frequencies found? I’m hoping someone can make a video on understanding frequencies, RF , sync, squelch, for this system. Haven’t seen any videos on this yet.Thanks

Okay DJ Rachel, you left out the part of how you sync these things up :) What is the order and what buttons do you press? I tried to follow the manual, but I can only get the first one linked and not the second. Help!
I’m gonna be honest. I literally just followed the manual. 😅😬 The transmitter must be in Sync mode to accept frequency changes made by the receiver. If you are setting up a system using multiple receiver-transmitter pairs, set up each receiver one at a time and keep each receiver powered on as you set up additional units. This will prevent each pair from automatically selecting the same channel. Make sure the receiver is powered on and within 3 feet of the transmitter. Press the Sync button on the transmitter. The Sync indicators will flash on both channels in the Display, and the transmitter is ready to receive channel and frequency information from the receivers. With Sync flashing on the transmitter, press the Freq button on the receiver you want to synchronize until the RF indicator flashes on the Display (see image). When the RF indicator flashes, the receiver will enter broadcast mode and transmit channel and frequency information via the 2.4 GHz frequency. If that doesn’t work, try to do it manually.
@@DJRachelLynch Thanks for responding. I finally figured it out. I had to change the second receiver to the right one in order for the transmitter to recognize it. That’s why it kept overwriting the left one each time I tried to sync :) I wish the instructions were written better but not your fault. I appreciate all the help you give us!
Wondering if You Still Using this? Is it Still Working? Is It Still Worth Getting Now or Should I Wait in Case they Gonna Make an Updated Version in the Future?
I still have this unit and use it only when necessary. I will ALWAYS choose to run a cable if I can, but sometimes we have no choice but to use a wireless option. They work very well for the price. There are better options out there but they are literally double the money.
I tried all this not even close to what you are doing. I had one speaker set up right next to me, just to try it. Terrific, I took the same speaker outside about 70 feet away never changing anything, didn't pick up signal. What am i doing wrong.
For best results: Get things high with good line of site. Make sure you’re scanning for a clean channel every use. Make sure the frequency has LOW/MINIMAL congestion by looking at the RF signal on the screen. It’s rated to work up to 200 feet away. 70 feet should be no problem.
@@DJRachelLynch Thank you for comment: I noticed when you put in the adapter it's loose and wiggles. That was the problem I had with losing signal. I eliminated the adapter the cord that was plugged into the adapter if I moved it or the wind blew I lost the signal. It seems to work better now, I didn't check the distance yet. Tomorrow is another day. Hopefully all works or I am sending the unit back. Again Thank You for your help.
So maybe I god a bad unit ? Just purchased this system and if I walk Across the 25’ distance between receiver I get a bad white noise Any ideas ? Did I got a bad antena if this thing can work across walls then it shouldn’t break the signal break when a person walks across the line of sight I’m a bit disappointed 😌
It’s important to make sure you have a clear channel and scan the frequencies properly. You’ll know this by the visual RD bar. These should be high as possible, with as clear as line of site. Bodies can affect the signal as they are technically very large “bags of salt water.” While results can vary under different environmental conditions, it does sound like something is off. Also do you have the “pro version”? The first gen of this was absolute garbage. These are MUCH better.
Have you or anybody tried a sound test with an XLR to RCA cable with this receiver to see how it affects the sound quality? For an event, the XLR Master outputs are normally used for connecting to the main setup speakers. I never use the RCA master
Salty Johnson Band The previous unit you could purchase expansion packs and have as many receivers connected as you wanted. To my knowledge these aren’t available yet for the pro edition. However, I don’t see why it would work any different. In theory you should be able to have as many dedicated monitors as you wanted as long as they’re broadcasting the same thing.
This works well for the price and allows for expansion packs for multiple speakers. The Sennheiser is double the price. Better unit. With weddings I use me Sennheiser.
Great video but I was waiting for you to test the sound inside a Pizza oven😔😆😆 thank you for a great product review and have you thought of having your mom MC one of your gigs? I would love to see that.....ONE HOUR LATER....ok I give up, I can't find the secret code after watching the vide 3 times, I give up🤢
Hi all, Does anyone have any experience with these systems for actual instruments?. As in a musician singing and playing guitar into mixer and out to PA's in a live gig?. Any feedback would be very much appreciated.
This works well for the price range, but the Sennheiser is a better unit and also double the price. It only allows me to have one wireless speaker versus the expansion packs available with the Alto. Each had their pros and cons.

Hope you love the unit. For the price they work great. Remember these are completely environmental so be sure to scan every time and get them high with line of site. I always choose to run an XLR cable when possible,
but sometimes we don’t have a choice and these are a good option when wireless is needed.
Outstanding review! I’m looking to purchase. What’s the secret code word?
Very well done Rachel. Dotty is adorable "I don't want to be in this video....you have a million songs why are you playing the same song over and over and over and over".... lol
Howie Darkstar she wanted to murder me after the week was over. 🤣🤣
@@DJRachelLynch lol
Just recently received this unit and so far LOVING it!! I did however learn the hard way not to turn off the main receiver before turning off the remote one first. I was at my wedding this weekend and turned off the remote receiver about 100 ft away and a loud white noise came out till i turned it back on. That definitely is still a thing :)
Glad you’re loving it! 🙌🏻 It’s a good unit! It’s odd that I didn’t experience that when I unplugged mine. I’ll definitely heed the warning.
Raise you SQ to a little higher number like 3 or 4 sounds like you have yours on 1 or 2. This video made me go back and really under Squelch and now my system is incredible. But for while there I couldn't trust it because my SQ was at 1 or 2 picking up everything even when you scan it had trouble finding a clear ch (It's your SQ). I even sent it in for repair thinking something was wrong with my 2+2 extender packs I own but it was the SQ all along set too low. I'm back in love with ALTO Stealth Pro
Thanks Rachel, Your mom always has a great cameo in your videos. I just purchased an Alto Stealth Pro from Ben at NFLX excited to try it out. Thanks again. Howie in Omaha, NE
Thanks for watching! I’ll tell her you said Hi! ☺️ She puts up with a lot of nonsense. We love her. Best of luck with your new unit. 👌🏻
I have that system and it DOES have a HORRIBLE noise if it loses power. I had to adjust the squelch to ALMOST the point of cutting out the sound..then back it down slightly. Also I tested the system with it from my garage into the far end of my house...I did in fact get some static. I used it at a event and didn’t have an issue with it. I have my transmitter mounted in a rack in my dj booth. I had to move it down a space from my Shure BLX4R receiver because it did interfere with it. Over all happy with my purchase. I just had to learn and test it to get the proper set-up.
Definitely need to dial it in. But it works well, especially for the price. I will always run a cable when I can, but sometimes we don’t have a choice. There are completely environmental so results may vary. That’s odd, I didn’t get a static noise when it lost power. I haven’t experienced that.
Fantastic review, Rachel! You went to a lot of trouble and set up all those scenarios for us - kudos! The only thing I would've liked to have seen would be a visual of each receiver, in their various locations during your demonstration, to gauge the signal strength at the different distances and through the various obstructions. I just purchased this unit, along with the expansion kit (with 2 additional receivers) so your video will be very helpful. Thanks again!
WOW!! You just gave me a perfect resolve to a huge issue I needed to resolve with a wireless system...
Great video!....Just a word of caution, I just recently purchased the Alto Stealth Pro unit and according to their website you are supposed to receive in the box Padded Zipper Bags for the transmitter and both receivers. In addition you are supposed to get the BNC front panel antenna connectors and the BNC cable extensions so you can mount antennas on front rack. None of these items I mentioned were included in my new Stealth Pro unit. It appears from watching your video that you did not receive them either, please correct me if I'm wrong. I've emailed Alto support hoping they will ship these items.
Shawn Hammond I was not aware of this! Thank you very much for this. Keep me posted!
I did not receive those items that you mentioned either, I also sent Alto an email, see what happens.
Did you ever receive them
An even less obtrusive piggyback cable is the Truetone ACY-US that hooks up directly between the speaker and the original IEC power cable of the speaker and provides an outlet for the power adapter. (One of the venues I perform at provides speakers and they hook up the power - in this case the piggyback cables in the video would be very inconvenient since it would require me to mess with their power wiring that's already in place).
Thanks for the suggestion!
Sometimes love between a mother and daughter is expressed a little differently, ok?? "Get outta here." LOL Awesome review and test, Rachel. Thank you for this!!
I Finally Got This, Upgraded from the Older Version. Sooo Much Better. Your Awesome Review Made Me Get it. Well Both Version of your Videos Made Me Got Both. But I Totally Love This Version. Thank you for Reviewing This. :)
This version is MUCH better than the previous one. Glad they made the upgrade. It’s not a perfect solution but it does well. Glad you’re getting good use out of it.
@@DJRachelLynch Yes it does it PERFECTLY for my Use. :)
Appreciate you video. One thing though with the static test. YES! there can be static when the tx is off. It kicks in after a few minutes. beware. Although this model is leagues ahead of the first series.
Thanks for checking this out and the feedback about the static. I’ve never experienced it but I have people tell me they have. I’m not sure why that is. I couldn’t agree more, while it’s not a perfect unit it’s miles better than the first rendition. 💯
Great coverage of the item and the details...what tie pin microphones did you use to record your video sound coverage? Is it a condenser, omnidirectional mic? and what was the gain level you set on it? I am impressed with the coverage of the sound by those mics. Thanks.
I highly recommend the Hollyland mics. That’s what I’m using now.

Where I think Alto fell short in this package deal is they give the option to front mount the receiver antennae onto the rack mount bracket but they don't include the extension BNC cable to allow you to do so. I'm still upgrading to the Stealth Pro though as I already have the original Alto Stealth as well as the Alto Total. I just think that for the price this unit sells for and the fact that the brackets are already designed to mount the antennae that the extension cables should be included.
I'm currently dealing with this. I'm not sure what BNC extension kit to get 😕
Your Mom is adorable! Thanks for the detailed review - great job!
☺️ Thanks so much!
This was extremely helpful for me! I have been looking to upgrade from the Alto Stealth because I have had so many gigs where the signal was horrible when I set up speakers in different rooms. This is my next purchase. Thanks
Check this out first. The Alto Stealth Pro works well for the price but there are better options like the one shown here using the Sennheiser body packs. If budget isn’t an issue consider these instead.

Been waiting on this things for years. Got mines a month ago and it works great as long you find a clear channel.
Great review and thank you for taking the time to do this! It's truly appreciated.
Just in case Alto Professional follows feedback on your presentation: I am a full-time professional and own a number Alto Products and have been very pleased with them; they have performed well. I have been also been considering acquiring these for all of our PA Systems for quite some time, but I am concerned because there seems to be a blackout on user reviews on this PRO-2 Version of across the web. Perhaps Alto Professional could help us, as much as you have, by either backing this with a published rock-solid return/exchange policy, publishing real-time customer feedback and what they are doing to resolve issues, and/or by providing us some additional information to set aside our concerns.
Again, thank you Rachel and Best Wishes! BobbyG
Thank you for taking the time to watch this and comment about your experience. I think it is VERY important that companies like ALTO seek out feedback as you have. I can attest that this product is NOT perfect, but as you said they do perform very well especially for the price point. I had trouble myself looking for "solutions" to improve these. Through trial and error, I kind of just figured it out. I will ALWAYS run a cable if possible, but these have helped me out a ton in a lot of complicated DJ setups. Thanks so much for stopping by the channel!
Wow this is the type of review I like. Looks like I will need to pick this up for my new speakers.
Rachel Thanks again for this old video, I was about to give up on my ALTO Stealth Pro system until I came back and looked at your QS part of this video. I had mines on 1 way to low or tight for my venues. Around 3 or 4 is perfect even 2 at some locations. About where do you kind of keep your numbers on your squelch (1-10)? Thanks
Great review as always. Keep up the good work
Just thought I'd throw this in the mix.....I just bought two sets of VAM c977 (cheap China) at $75 a set Mic/guitar adaptors on Amazon they sound great. I tried a remote speaker in my garage I'm in my basement so lost line of site a few times and they sound great run on 2.4
Thank you so much for this review. I chose to go with the pro as the 1st version had some limits with multiple floor venues in my experience.
The pro is a much better unit than the first-gen. It's not perfect but works great for the price.
thanks for this video, was looking into buying this system for this wedding season and maybe building it into my case permanently, make set up quicker.
Having worked in the professional sound field for over 36 years keep in mind that your relying on a RF signal in a remote residential area when using the transmitter to the receiver at great distance. When you get into a area that has a high level of RF from wifi to cell service and other UHF wireless systems it could possibly become a issue. Other than that it seems to work well.
Agreed. There are COMPLETELY environmental. They work well. They are perfect but for the price point they do a good job. 🙂
thanks for sharing the video. great explanation with all my questions answered. Thank you!
Thank you for the video. Is there a cheaper option for home and small party use?
For multiple speakers. Not that I’m aware of. Or at least not that I would feel comfortable recommending. If you’re just looking to make a powered speaker Bluetooth capable you could use the Alto BAT which is only $40 or so dollars.
Hi Rachel - thank you for making these videos. They have helped me to improve my djing and the equipment I use.
I did purchase the Alto Stealth Professional and it works great, however, there are times when I will press the scan button and it just scans and scans…. Have you come across this issue? If so did you find a solve? Also have you ever set up your system and during the event had it start popping and giving interference? Every now and agin this will happen.
Hey Rachel great video. Do you need separate receivers if your using subs many thanks. Tony
Tony Jefford If I understand your question correctly, you’re asking how to connect the receiver pack when using a top and a sub?
Most DJs are just linking tops and subs, this would be no different than just running a cable from your mixer... except.. no cable!
Thanks for stopping by the channel. 🙂
@@DJRachelLynch thanks so I guess it would be XLR out of receiver into sub then out of sub into tops? Is that correct.
Thanks for your time.
Great channel by the way
I'm ordering one today, thanks for the great review.
This is a great video. I shoot videos in my home in different rooms and this would be perfect. Thanks for the demo.
that last test with close proximity use of mics was cool, can't wait to see them out at gig
Yescas Alfonso it’s always a concern for DJs. I get it. Scanning and squelch will be your best friend.
Awesome video Rachel, that was l was looking for, for my satellite speaker that l use for outdoor. You are a good seller! 😂 Have a great and happy Thanksgiving
Have a great holiday! Thanks for checking this out. Hope the unit is exactly what you need.
As always your videos are always great! Lots of information and very detailed. Can’t wait to see gig log with them in use as well.
Brian Park thanks so much for checking it out. I like to make sure people understand what they are buying. Unfortunately due to the weather in time of year I wasn’t able to bring these out to a outdoor gig and test them but I tried my best locally. I’ve used the previous ones at an event and they worked well. These are MUCH better with the mentioned upgrades.
Great product review thank you and keep up the great work.
I’m always skeptical about “wireless “especially when you are testing without any other wireless mics connected (as I will), 150+ cellphones, 1200 hotel guests and other signals up for competition. Impressive when you are testing in a rural environment with no extra signals to compete with. 100 foot XLR cable helps me concentrate on the music without any worries of clips or drops.
Allen Gallegos a wired option is ALWAYS a better option but sometimes we don’t have a choice. This is an affordable option for a wireless solution. There are better (more expensive) alternative out there, but it does the job. It is miles better than the previous version.
That alto wireless works great, no drop outs…thats why your mom drops you out in her room..lol …love this portion when your mom react..hahaha..nice video,..
So glad to hear you’re having success with the unit! They have definitely helped me out a few times in a pinch when running a wire just wasn’t possible.
Mom wanted to kill me! She was listening to that song all day. 😊
Very helpful review. Thanks!
Thank you sooooo much for this video. So how did the sound in actual dj event with all the people around the system?
I’ve always had a good experience with this unit. Keep in mind they are environmental. They may work amazing in one spot and have interference issues in another venue. Always best to scan, keep them high, with line of sight. Overall very helpful unit when running a wire isn’t an option.
Great review. Just watched your Xmas video where you are using the Sennheiser. Both look like they get the job done. I assume you still have both available to you? Would love to hear a comparison of the two and which one is your go to and why.
The ALTO STEALTH Pro works great for the price, but there are better options out there hence the Sennheiser EW 100 G4 (which is double the cost). For weddings or events where I only need one speaker, I’ll use the Sennheiser. If I need multiple speakers out like a car show or some thing the alto works well. 🙂 It really boils down to what’s in your budget and how many speakers do you need to be wireless. I always try to run a wire if I can.
@@DJRachelLynch Thanks. I really appreciate your advise. 😎
Great review. I've been using these for years. Never a problem.
200 ft ok? How about delay?
@@pmarszalek123 Never a problem, as long as they’re line of sight, you’re fine.
I was hoping they would have made the new one with a rechargeable battery. It’s great if you have power but if your using a battery powered speaker at a ceremony or as a fill in reception hall defeats the purpose of said battery powered speaker. Having to having access to power. I will just keep using my xvive u3
I’m sure it is to keep the price point down. It’s a happy medium between affordable and function. There are better wireless battery powered options out there but they are much more expensive unfortunately.
@@DJRachelLynch you can also buy battery packs these days for hardly nothing
I love this video Rachel! thinking of picking this up myself. I'm guessing like all other wireless receivers, you should scan at the location in which the receiver will be and then bring them to the transmitter and sync or pair them correct? What do you find yourself setting the volume on the transmitter and receivers to be set on? Thanks again!
Thanks for checking this out. I appreciate you stopping by the channel. ☺️
I do a clean scan at every event. There have been a few times when I have had to make adjustments during the event. These are completely environmental so you need to make sure these are dialed in at all times. Get them high and use direct line of site as much as possible.
Turn on your loudspeaker, adjust the output level on your mixer, and adjust the Trim controls on the transmitter to hear the audio signal. If you hear noise in the signal, change to a different channel until a clean signal comes through.
As for my volume settings, it’s hard to tell because I use several different controllers and speaker types depending on the event these are needed. I always dial them in each time so I can’t recall an exact personal setting. I also haven’t used them in a year so... 😅😂🤷🏼♀️
Stay well. Stay safe!
@@DJRachelLynch Oh wow! thanks so much for all of the input Rachel! keep up the great work!
@@DJRachelLynch so the transmitter gotta be as high up as the receivers? What kind of adjustments did you have to make mid event?
@@djking_237 it doesn’t have to be as high but having good line of sight will give you a better result. Since these are completely environmental you’ll have to make adjustments as necessary depending on the venue or location.
@@DJRachelLynch Hi Rachel, did you ever do another test on the power loss? I sent you a video with me doing the same thing and I got horrible white noise hiss if you remember. Not sure why it's different for you. :(
Any plans for battery powered receivers? Lots of battery powered PA systems. It would be nice to be able to place them anywhere without any cables.
I’m not sure but there are other great battery powered options out there.
Awesome Review Rachel. Few questions.
1. How is it on Windy Conditions. I had problems with my Old Stealth when it was outside of store and it was pretty windy. I was getting alot of drop outs.
2. The XLR Cable that connects from the Receiver to Speaker the connector to the receiver is different from the previous model. It's not straight XLR. And it looks short. Is it ok to attach another xlr to make it longer? If the something goes wrong with that cable.. Will I be able to replace it easily. I want to get a back up cable just in case.
HeadShot Heroes I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence but to my understanding of how UHF works, wind would not effect it in any. Either way, it was a breezy day using these and as you saw everything worked great. 🙂
It is a different cable. It’s a XLR mini to XLR. If you mount it to the speaker with the Velcro or the fly point bolt it’s enough length. However I don’t see why you couldn’t daisychain an extra cable if you needed it to be longer.
If you end up purchasing it I hope you love it. 🙂
@@DJRachelLynch the reason why it's short is that I have an Evolve 50 and I place the transmitter on the very top and the sub where you connect the XLR wayyy on the bottom. The previous model is short also... But I didn't worry cause I had spare xlrs to reach it.
@@DJRachelLynchSo it's about Standard MiniXLR then? Not Proprietary?
HeadShot Heroes correct.
HeadShot Heroes ahhhhh. Got ya. Makes sense for the Evolve.
I will have to invest In this I just started DJing 1 1/2 years ago
Thanks for the video. I usually setup two subs and two tops near me with wires. There are bigger weddings where I would like to set up two more speakers on the other side of the room. How would I go about setting that up? Use the booth outputs to go to the wireless system? Is delay an issue ?
Great review! (as usual). My only question is, are the receivers waterproof or water resistance? How do you protect them from the elements, especially if it suddenly rains?
To my knowledge there is no IP rating. But in reality if they are getting wet, so is your speaker. Nobody should be using any of their audio gear in a wet environment. So you’d do the same thing for these as you would your speakers if it stated to rain… protect them.
Hi Rachel. Question about the alto professional stealth wireless pro system and no pro. Which you recommend to buy on this unit? Because you already used both. Please let me know. Thanks
What do you mean by no pro? The Alto Stealth Pro version is much better than the first one. The upgrades allows you to dial it in better the best result. There are better options than this but they are much more expensive. This works very well for its price point.
@@DJRachelLynch what I meant is that one is called wireless and the other is pro wireless. thank you very much for your help
Brilliant review!
Ok, I guess I’m safe ... I haven’t had any problems with the wireless since I bought it (so far)
🔥🔥 Awesome review!!! I’m sold! 🤣😍🙏🏾
This video is a bit older. There are better options out now. I HIGHLY recommend the Sennhesier EW 112 packs. Check out my other video on my ceremony system.
@@DJRachelLynch did you experience any issues with this system. I just received mine. I already ordered before I saw your reply.
@@djshortyloveit worked very well for me. Line of site is VERY important here. It’s a very environmentally sensitive unit so results may vary venue to venue, but overall it was a solid option. As I said there is better technology available since this unit came out so I sold this and upgraded but this should work well for you.
Brilliant demo!
Very nice video I’m gonna get it. How do I get the secret code for special price?
Thanks I use alto pro it does cuts but thanks Rachel I have bought many products from your recommendation
These like many other products are completely environmental. Make sure you’re always scanning for a clean channel, getting them high and good line of site. They are perfect but for the price they work well. Best of luck! Thanks for stopping by the channel. ☺️
I usually have a good eye, but can't seem to see the "secret code word" unless it was that little logo that slid over in the lower corner. :(
E-mail me at DJRachel@me.com and I tell you it. :)
Racheal can you use this alto wireless system to be powered from the Everse 8 battery speaker. And if not, what is a better way to do using the everse8 13 volt power
I want to connect two separate speakers without wiring
Watch this! 😉
th-cam.com/video/pfcaP3ZvnZI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=16IKmiJL9T7aZWjF
Has anyone rack-mounted one of these? I'm trying to do that, but I want the antennae in front. I don't know what antenna extension cables / kit to get ...
Hello question, if you are running subwoofers. With your tops do you need additional transmitters. To get a signal from the subs.
Hi Rachel, great video! Can you please explain where do you connect the alto xlr into the mixer? From the moment that i have only 2 mains (L&R) that go from the mixer to speakers, i diden't understand how and where to connect the alto wireless.
Please rewatch the video at 8:00 minutes. I literally show to connect it to a controller/mixer.
@@DJRachelLynch Hi Rachel, Just to inform you that after a few days of research of the product here in Italy, it seems that this item is out of production. That's what there saying here. Impossibile to buy. Have you any updates? thanks v m. take care
How about Delay ??? 0.5 secunds??? Please let me know
Rachel excellent video, how can I connect a subwoofer to the wireless system?
You hook up your subs as your normally but instead of running your XLR out of your controller/mixer to the speakers, you connect the Alto Base and then connect the packs as shown.
Good and helpful stuff ! Thank You !
Hi Rachel... big fan here. One question, did you test for lag?
There is no noticeable lag. There will obviously be a delay with speakers placed very far a part. Some speakers have a delay setting (like the Evolve 50) to compensate for this. This will happen regardless of using a wireless option if far enough apart. 🙂
Thank you for this video. Very good!!!!
💪🏻❤️
Hey Rachel, Love your videos! Question, I currently have the older Alto wireless system, but like many others you have to work with it and have the line of sight just right to make them work. It’s a little more work, but I make ‘em work. Interested in upgrading. Your opinion .... the New Alto Pro or something like the Senheiser XSW-D?
Little about me, I’m a single operator, Wedding DJ mostly, about 75% of the time I need to set up extra speakers to cover sound for cocktail hour and dinner. Usually run the Alto wireless through my booth out, so when the dancing starts, I can turn them off from my controller.
Appreciate your time and opinion.

Sorry for the delay! I just saw this comment now. This is a BIG upgrade from the previous version you have. I haven’t used the Sennhesier system you mentioned but I do feel my EW100 G4 blows this out of the water but again the price point with both units isn’t really fair. The Sennhesier EW100 is a $600 single mic and double the price. If you like your stealth and are making it work I think the upgrade would be a good move for you.
Thanks Rachel,
I was thinking the same thing. With the Stealth Pro, I can do the same as I’ve been doing with the older version of the Alto wireless system. The price is high, and it will be an investment, but it will make my job, that much easier.
Thanks for getting back to me.
dang that is awesome,...when you going to take it out to an event to see that video...
Hey Rachel, almost three years on...would you still use these? I was about to buy a few more Sennheiser EW-D receivers and bodypacks, but this seems more convenient, as the unit with the display and controls would be at the booth with me.
These work well for the price. If budget isn’t an issue I would recommend the Sennhesier units as they are a more premium wireless solution. But if you need something more budget minded, this is a good option even 3 years later.
@@DJRachelLynch I'm always grateful for your answers. I think I'll go with the body pack + EW-D for now.
Alto Professional Stealth Wireless pro or alto mkii wireless system which is best, which is the latest and what's the difference?
The Pro is a better model, but I think it's been discontinued. However, what I showed in this link below is your best option.
th-cam.com/video/pfcaP3ZvnZI/w-d-xo.html
Rachel, have you had the opportunity to fully test this out at a gig with bodies occupying a room yet?
DJ DANNY B Yes. 🙂 Works very well. Get it high and scan the channels for the open frequency. Remember these are completely environmental. So it could work perfect in one venue and need adjusting in another. I only use these when I need multiple wireless speakers, otherwise I use my Sennheiser ew100.
@@DJRachelLynch sweet thank you! I too use the Sennheiser system, but so glad to see that Alto finally re-released the Stealth Pro. Thanks again! :)
12:36 i love that song ayy

Nice review. Hood job👍👍
Thats a huge house. Great test too.
Thanks for stopping by the channel!!
Do you know what's the differnece between the Alto Professional Stealth MKII-UHF and the pro verison. The pro is $700 and you really can't find. Great video by the way!
I do not recommend the MK2 at all. It is a down grade.
Truthfully,this video is old and there are much better options available. 🙂
@@DJRachelLynch would you still recommend the pro? What newer models do you feel are just as good as the one you were using in the video.
@@mocutzI think it’s discontinued anyway. But no, at this point I’d say utilize the great new options that are now available. 🙂
Trying to decide between the Alto Professional Stealth MKII ($399) and the Alto Professional Stealth Pro shown in this video ($749). Any significant difference in performance between the two?
Huge difference. I do not recommend the MKII.
A better option to all of these would be what’s shown here.
th-cam.com/video/pfcaP3ZvnZI/w-d-xo.html
@@DJRachelLynch Got it. Thanks for the quick response!
Very dope video
Hey Rachel, why did you stop using this and opt for the Sennheiser microphone hack?
This is a good unit if you need multiple wireless speakers on a budget. There are better options, but they are also much more expensive than the Alto Stealth Pro. I use these at less formal events like large car shows or food truck festivals if I need to spread out sound over long distances. I haven’t had any issue with them, some people hate them. 🤷🏼♀️
For my weddings I use my Sennheiser unit. I usually only need one satellite speaker and this is a more premium option.
Are you still using it? I have one and have rarely used it because I have had horrible static at times. I recently ordered a antenna combiner with a directional antenna to see if it helps.
There is better technology available. This is 4 years old. I now use this…
th-cam.com/video/pfcaP3ZvnZI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pTdxicbkH3G-oDbj
Hey Rachel,
Question, by your recommendation, I purchased the Alto Stealth Pro. When you opened it, was there a clear plastic or tape overnight over the digital readouts, on the transmitter and receivers. When I opened mine, all the readout screens are smudged. And when I tried wiping it off, it won’t come off. I’m wondering if they sent me a used system. Your thoughts?
Mine was a B stock unit so mine didn’t have plastic on it. It’s possible, but I am unable to say. Have you tried it? Does it work?
@@DJRachelLynch not yet. Going to try it out today. Was just wondering. Thanks!
in your example of "SCAN" for a channel on the receiver, there was ultimately no RF reading. Which is a problem I am having with one of my receivers. I scroll +/- and can't get any RF reading.
You want your RF meter to have the most bars possible. The lower the bars the more congestion there is on that frequency. Scan every time you use and find the most “open” channel. Most of what you’re looking for is explained in the manual.
Just a side note…
Adjusting the squelch is relatively straightforward. You simply set your mic up (powered on) at the furthest distance (or worst case) you ever expect to use it and adjust the squelch at the receiver until it just gates off your mic. Then move it back up just a little for an extra margin of safety.
Hi Rachel your are the best, questions for you am I looking for the highest RF on the meter when scanning frequencies, also do I adjust the squelch to a higher number if no high RF frequencies found? I’m hoping someone can make a video on understanding frequencies, RF , sync, squelch, for this system. Haven’t seen any videos on this yet.Thanks

❤nice job with the video
Thank you! ☺️
Okay DJ Rachel, you left out the part of how you sync these things up :) What is the order and what buttons do you press? I tried to follow the manual, but I can only get the first one linked and not the second. Help!
I’m gonna be honest. I literally just followed the manual. 😅😬
The transmitter must be in Sync mode to accept frequency changes made by the receiver.
If you are setting up a system using multiple receiver-transmitter pairs, set up each receiver one at a time and keep each receiver powered on as you set up additional units. This will prevent each pair from automatically selecting the same channel.
Make sure the receiver is powered on and within 3 feet of the transmitter.
Press the Sync button on the transmitter. The Sync indicators will flash on both channels in the Display, and the transmitter is ready to receive channel and frequency information from the receivers.
With Sync flashing on the transmitter, press the Freq button on the receiver you want to synchronize until the RF indicator flashes on the Display (see image). When the RF indicator flashes, the receiver will enter broadcast mode and transmit channel and frequency information via the 2.4 GHz frequency.
If that doesn’t work, try to do it manually.
@@DJRachelLynch Thanks for responding. I finally figured it out. I had to change the second receiver to the right one in order for the transmitter to recognize it. That’s why it kept overwriting the left one each time I tried to sync :) I wish the instructions were written better but not your fault. I appreciate all the help you give us!
Cuando los usas y empiezas a mesclar música no hay retardo en la música a usar este producto?
Not that I noticed. 🙂
Wondering if You Still Using this? Is it Still Working? Is It Still Worth Getting Now or Should I Wait in Case they Gonna Make an Updated Version in the Future?
I still have this unit and use it only when necessary. I will ALWAYS choose to run a cable if I can, but sometimes we have no choice but to use a wireless option. They work very well for the price. There are better options out there but they are literally double the money.
Hi, How can I hook up 1 sub and 4 speakers to Alto Professional Stealth Wireless Pro System? Do I have to buy 2 of the wireless systems?
Thank you!
You'd need the expansion packs. :)
@@DJRachelLynch Thank you for your quick response.... do you have the link where I can buy that expansion?
Thank you.
@@raysaysouk816 I would contact @NLFXProfessional and speak to Ben Stowe. :)
Got the earlier model of the Alto stealth, still works great years later.
So just so I’m clear you want the RF meter to be low because that is showing the amount of congestion on the particular channel right ?
I believe it represents “signal strength” not congestion.
I tried all this not even close to what you are doing. I had one speaker set up right next to me, just to try it. Terrific, I took the same speaker outside about 70 feet away never changing anything, didn't pick up signal. What am i doing wrong.
For best results:
Get things high with good line of site.
Make sure you’re scanning for a clean channel every use.
Make sure the frequency has LOW/MINIMAL congestion by looking at the RF signal on the screen.
It’s rated to work up to 200 feet away. 70 feet should be no problem.
@@DJRachelLynch Thank you for comment: I noticed when you put in the adapter it's loose and wiggles. That was the problem I had with losing signal. I eliminated the adapter the cord that was plugged into the adapter if I moved it or the wind blew I lost the signal. It seems to work better now, I didn't check the distance yet. Tomorrow is another day. Hopefully all works or I am sending the unit back. Again Thank You for your help.
Do u think it will be great for church? Will it be any problem?
Lianpu Taithul get them dialed in and high up in the air and you should be fine. 🙂
I have the same issue with the old model, and some time cut off the signal of the shure mic.
This model is MUCH better than the previous one.
So maybe I god a bad unit ?
Just purchased this system and if I walk Across the 25’ distance between receiver I get a bad white noise
Any ideas ? Did I got a bad antena if this thing can work across walls then it shouldn’t break the signal break when a person walks across the line of sight
I’m a bit disappointed 😌
It’s important to make sure you have a clear channel and scan the frequencies properly. You’ll know this by the visual RD bar. These should be high as possible, with as clear as line of site. Bodies can affect the signal as they are technically very large “bags of salt water.” While results can vary under different environmental conditions, it does sound like something is off. Also do you have the “pro version”? The first gen of this was absolute garbage. These are MUCH better.
Have you or anybody tried a sound test with an XLR to RCA cable with this receiver to see how it affects the sound quality? For an event, the XLR Master outputs are normally used for connecting to the main setup speakers. I never use the RCA master
XLR is the highest quality connection you can use. I personally don’t use RCA for anything.
Could two of these be run at the same time ? For a live band , one unit dedicated to FoH and another dedicated to say monitors?
Salty Johnson Band The previous unit you could purchase expansion packs and have as many receivers connected as you wanted. To my knowledge these aren’t available yet for the pro edition. However, I don’t see why it would work any different. In theory you should be able to have as many dedicated monitors as you wanted as long as they’re broadcasting the same thing.
How do you like this verse the Senheiser that you use in your newer videos
This works well for the price and allows for expansion packs for multiple speakers. The Sennheiser is double the price. Better unit. With weddings I use me Sennheiser.
Great video but I was waiting for you to test the sound inside a Pizza oven😔😆😆 thank you for a great product review and have you thought of having your mom MC one of your gigs? I would love to see that.....ONE HOUR LATER....ok I give up, I can't find the secret code after watching the vide 3 times, I give up🤢
Email me and I’ll give it to you. I’ll be honest, not sure if the company is still offering the discount. 🤔
Hi all, Does anyone have any experience with these systems for actual instruments?. As in a musician singing and playing guitar into mixer and out to PA's in a live gig?. Any feedback would be very much appreciated.
Hi hello! I need that one ? And how much the price in dirhams(uae)
Why did you change for Sennheiser G4? Did this Alto System disapointed you?
This works well for the price range, but the Sennheiser is a better unit and also double the price. It only allows me to have one wireless speaker versus the expansion packs available with the Alto. Each had their pros and cons.
