Church Production Magazine: There’s no denying it: in-ear monitoring has been one of the greatest leaps forward in live sound, especially in smaller venues (like most churches). Banishing monitor bleed, reducing on-stage volume levels, giving performers greatly increased clarity—all these benefits are courtesy of those little monitors you put directly in your ears.

I love product reviews. In my line of work I am often asked what I prefer and I ask others what type of tool they prefer. It gives me the chance to try new things and new tools to see what is going to be best for me in my daily tasks. I’ve never had to use an in ear monitor, though I have had to use in ear units for radios. I think if I were a performer, I’d want the ones that are custom to my ears. I am not of fan of things in my ears because after a while they just become uncomfortable and my ears start to hurt. Having the custom models means that it is fitted perfectly. Mackie has three models here, all are universal fit, so they are not going to be for everyone. Where the article really falls short is full testing on these units to see how they compare to others, especially those that are custom fitted. While the article does mention a few aspects, it doesn’t really go into the depth that I had hoped for. Maybe they are still testing.
