The Church that I play at has recently removed the stage monitors and has gone with an in-ear monitor system (wired). I've been using a Line 6 G30 Wireless System for my bass for several years, and wanted to go wireless with the in-ears as well. I had a look through this forum and found a few people recommending the Xvive U4. So I got a set from Andertons for £179, and can confirm that the sound quality is excellent and there are no compatibility issues with the Line 6 G30.

Here's a review from Tom Quayle;

I have been using a Line 6 relay G30 for years without any problems, done theaters, indoor and large outdoor gigs , clubs, pubs etc
takes 2 rechargable AA batteries . built to last and a fair price . easy to set up and use.
the shure system is also great and has more features but more expensive to do basicaly the same thing , all down to budgets and personal preference i guess
but either of these units will do the job for years without any problems
I bought a Line 6 G30 in 2014, and have used it almost every day since. I have never had a problem with it

[attachment=234498:Thomastik_JF346_Jazz_Flatwound_Long-Scale_6-string.jpg]
I bought these strings in October this year (2016), as the cost and frequency of changing quality bass strings (Warwick EMP's) was getting a bit much. I had previously tried Overwater flatwound strings, but just didn't like the sound - too dull. The Thomastik-Infeld Flat Wounds weren't cheap though at about £66, but they had great reviews and shouldn't need changed very often (if ever!).......
I can't believe it's been all these years since I posted this review.... Anyway, thought I'd share an update;
I'm still playing the same set of strings, and they still sound fantastic. I've also saved a fortune not having to replace strings approximately every 3 months. I would definitely recommend these strings.

Beautiful. Well done getting it back...

They are fantastic strings. They feel really smooth to touch, and ooze quality. They sound a lot brighter than other flatwounds I have heard/played. Also, there is a lot less tension in the strings (compared to the Overwater flats, and Warwick EMP's) and they are very easy/comfortable to play. I've played them every day since I fitted them 2 months ago and they still sound fantastic.
One review that put me off initially said that as the low 'B' was .136, you might have to modify your bass to get it to fit! This was not the case. I have a Warwick Corvette $$, and Warwick's own brand low 'B' is .135, so not much difference. Anyway, fitted perfectly without any modification. The high 'C' is .029, and sounds/feels really good. I've previously found the high 'C' can sound a bit 'thin' with some makes of strings, but not these....
Great strings - Highly recommended.

I've had a G30 since 2014. I use it everyday in the house, and at Church on a Sunday. It is faultless. No noise or loss of signal, and I've never had any reason to doubt it's reliability. I can highly recommend this great piece of kit. The only issue is that the belt clip is pretty flimsy and broke within a few days. I had the unit replaced under warranty and bought a Neotech wireless pouch (small) from Amazon for £18. The transmitter fits perfectly. No problems since then...

Roland D-Bass 210 – Excellent Condition

From the Roland web page;[list]
[*]High-powered bass amp with FFP and Active Speaker Control
[*]Powerful, ultra-lightweight design
[*]400W RMS into 2 x 10" and tweeter
[*]3 COSM amp models
[*]XLR DI out with ground lift
[/list]
[b]FFP Upgraded with Active Speaker Control[/b]
[indent=1]To achieve their high-quality sound and amazing performance, the new D-Bass amps employ breakthrough Roland technology: FFP incorporating Active Speaker Control. FFP (Feed Forward Processing) is a DSP-based process that analyzes incoming signal and maximizes it before it hits the speaker. By utilizing Active Speaker Control, FFP allows the D-BASS to faithfully reproduce the incoming signal of the original bass, thereby controlling its speaker movement to reproduce the same input signal as closely as possible. This “true input matching” technology allows lower string sounds to be much clearer, and the overall feel to be more direct than with other bass amplifiers. A technology exclusive to Roland amps, FFP provides a marked increase in speaker efficiency, loudness boost, and overall perceived power.[/indent]
[b] COSM Preamps[/b]
[indent=1]Equipped with Vintage, Modern, and Super Flat COSM preamp models, the D-Bass 210 and 115’s COSM preamps can deliver a range of great tones beyond that of a traditional analog bass amp. With the simple, analog-style controls, you can control your sound quickly and easily. Roland’s unique “Super Flat” setting reproduces the bass guitar’s original sound characteristic without coloration. Its fat and clear characteristic is also perfect for the piezo sound of upright bass. Detailed sound adjustments are possible with the 4-band EQ, including a dedicated Tweeter Control knob.[/indent]
[b] Satellite Power[/b]
[indent=1]Need more beef? Add a D-Bass 115X powered speaker cab. Designed to be a perfect match electronically and physically for the D-Bass 210 or 115, the 115X provides 300 crushing watts of add-on power for the extra volume and punch required by larger venues and stages. The 115X has a switch for Full Range or Sub Woofer mode, affording players the flexibility they need to maximize their rigs from stage to stage.[/indent]
[b] Road Tough, Light Weight[/b]
[indent=1]Don’t let their lighter-than-average weight fool you. These amps are tough as nails and built for the road. Equipped with high-performance/low-weight neodymium speaker magnets, each new D-Bass amp is a performance powerhouse that’s a joy to transport. Industrial-strength, smooth-rolling casters make the job of getting from gig A to B even easier.[/indent]
[b] Two Compression Types[/b]
[indent=1]Both 210 and 115 D-Bass amps are equipped with a pro-quality solid-state compression, plus a Tube Logic section. Derived from Roland’s BluesCUBE, the newly improved Tube Logic produces the type of fat and natural compression associated with vintage tube amps. No matter how razor-sharp the tone, Tube Logic can dunk it in a liquid-warm bath.[/indent]

I've had one of these for years, and often though about upgrading it to the GT10-B. But as it's reliable, works & sounds great, I don't see any advantage in changing it. A very nice bit of kit - well worth the asking price!....

A lot of bass for the money Good luck with the sale.

Very nice! Good luck with the sale.

I had one of these. It was a great bass. I only sold it as I found the 35" scale a bit big for my small hands I didn't have any issues with the weight. Good luck with the sale.

Stunning!
