Wisycom ENG Kit

Has anyone had any experience with the Wisycom ENG Kit? The MPR-30 ENG RX and the MTP-40 Lite TX. I'm in the market to upgrade my G3 senny's and this looks like a nice combo for a wide-band solution.

I know the RX units don't have top mounted controls, but I'm not too bothered about that. The important battery and rf led's are mounted high up, so I can still see them at a glance in my bag. It looks like there is a 5-pin version for hirose power too.

Has anyone had any experience in the field with them? How do they perform?

No experience but... I was just weighing between this and the Lectrosonics L series. The Wisy set had going for it great battery life and frequency range. But then I realized (on jwsoundgroup, of course) that the transmitter doesn't have input limiters. So the Lectro way I went.

I own 2 Wisy's ENG kit and a MCR42 kit. They are very good. MPR 30 can go on 5D, C500 very easily, and they have a line/mic plus an headphone output.

I like them, I use usually put it on cameras,  with a battery eliminator on XDcam, and keep the MCR 42 in my bag. I wrote a short review here :

The MTP40S Lite on the website shows the limiter as one of the features currently available.  Remember, the MTP40S has 80dB of input gain range which means tons of headroom. The MPR30-ENG also has the ENR1.2 expander mode specifically designed for DSLR cameras use. This expander mode reduces the dynamic range of the output so that the DSLR inputs can not be clipped.
