Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • The deity ones have a special setting exactly for this use case, and come with an inbuilt scratch audio mic for the right channel.
  • Deity are my current favorite for shoots where I don’t want to expose my Lectrosonics, but still want high quality audio. The integration between Deity tx, rx, and timecode boxes make them a stellar choice for inexpensive but still quali...
  • I use the Deity, but would recommend the Audioroot.
  • I have multiple lockit boxes and used multiple more, and by far the easiest and fastest for starting my day are the deitys.
  • I use them. They jam wirelessly and keep great time. I ditched my JB-1s for them... Absolutely nothing wrong with them. Trust me.

Cons

  • The deity too, although the lack of internal cabling option is kind of a deal breaker if you're not running wireless boom most of the time.
  • This is why i have not and will not buy anything from Deity. They spend too much on the build looking nice and flashy, but under the hood its all cheap crap.
  • Deity is banned in a lot of sporting arenas because the RF spray is so horrible. It’s hard enough to fight RF on the daily.
  • Deity RF spray is crazy. If you end up getting a gig in a highly rf coordinated location there's a good chance that you won't be aloud to use them.
  • Important to note that Deity wireless is often banned at major sporting events for having bandwidth issues.

I would not even consider Deity wireless.

look at the problems with Deity customer service, a lot of things have to be managed by Andrew himself and to this day the 3.5 connector for the lavs is an issue... issues with the units locking up and not changing frequencies, all of that and more can make a sound professional not fully trust or completely disregard those brands
