giant squid for iriver question
 
on the giant squid site they list a right angle adapter. is this something i will need? im purchasing 3 iriver 790's, and three giant squids. one i will get in white, also what does everyone recomend for the cord size????
thnx

Right angle plug important for 800 series, where jack is on the side. 700's have jack on the end, so right angle plug not really needed. I have rt angle on mine, but think either one would be okay.

Cord length depends on your application. Some of my cords are only 6 inches long

yep as said, I have 2 x 790's and i use the straight plug in the end of the iriver works well, also 1 x 2ft lead for wedding vows and one normal i think they are 5 or 6 ft. you cant go wrong with this setup a real bargain/quality hit !!!!!

I use a 3 foot cord length. The iriver goes into the groom's jacket pocket and the mic clips to his lapel, a few inches above his naval. I keep it low so that bride and groom voices will be closer to the same sound level.

Hi Dan, I just purchased 2 mic's and when I talked to Darren he encouraged the 90 deg. ends for my 795's. I think you would be happy either way although if they are laying down in a pocket that would make them a little shorter, as to fit better in a short pocket. TAG
