The intercom system is the device that the live broadcast team uses to communicate with each other and the director, and we found the Hollyland Mars T1000 Intercom - the best bi-directional digital wireless system for up to 5 people, so it is theoretically ideal for a small group.

What comes with the Hollyland Mars T1000 Intercom Kit?

The system comes with a set that is the base station in addition to 4 transmitters for belt mounting and 5 headphones. The receiving station has two antennas plus a spare antenna. Spare headphone covers for all five headphones, and bags for all of them, also come in carton. 4-contact XLR power adapter for the base station, and a (Sony) NPF-style battery mounted on top of the base station.

This is really a comprehensive and integrated preparation p spare parts. Here, we find Hollyland keen to provide its customers with all supplies, with any device that it markets. The company has so far been known for its wireless video systems and is successfully entering the audio field as well.

Transmitters

Each transmitter is made of solid German, with integrated antennas. And each has a built-in battery that works for about 8 hours when fully charged (i.e. 8 hours of continuous use without turning it off in between!). This means that the charging will last for an entire day of work and shooting.

The base station

The base station, likewise, is made of durable solid aluminum. And it comes with its own headphone so that the director can communicate with the filming team during filming to guide him. Both the base station and transmitters have OLED displays for settings, and in the base station there are some very basic settings that you can change, for example adjusting for noisy or quieter surroundings.

The base station also has 4 single-sided USB Type-A ports designated to be used to charge the four transmission packets using the included USB-A-to-USB-C cables. This is a really great idea, as there is no need for an additional USB charger with this system. There's also an extra USB-C port for firmware updates next to these 4 ports

You can even connect to a second base via Ethernet to connect up to 10 people with the Mars T1000 Intercom. A smart move that makes your little system somewhat scalable (even though the limit is 10 people, you can't add a third system to the grid).

Headphones

The headphones that Hollyland comes with the Mars T1000 are very comfortable. And it can be adjusted according to different head sizes. The headphone case surrounds your right ear without pressure at all, making wearing the headset for an extended period of time comfortable. Also, the overall headphone is very lightweight, so it doesn't feel like a full headphone when you wear it. The microphone in front of your mouth can be easily adjusted to any desired position.

The power outlet is at the receiving terminal

The Mars T1000 base station can be powered with either a 4-contact XLR cable (included) or NPF batteries, which, as mentioned earlier, is a great idea to have you totally independent with it. You can literally take this system to the top of a mountain and still be able to communicate with your crew without the need for AC power or some unconventional battery improvisation.

Sound quality

In terms of sound quality, calling with the Mars T1000 looks a lot like making a phone call over a normal cellular connection. The audio is not the same as a VOIP call (for example, Facetime Audio or a WhatsApp call), but it is like a regular GSM phone call.

Frequency and range

Holyland says the range of the Hollyland Mars T1000 intercom system is 1,000 feet (about 300 meters). In terms of frequencies, there's really nothing you can change (I've found) - the Hollyland Mars T1000 operates in the 1.9GHz band, which is the upper limit of the frequency range used by GSM systems. This means that they operate at the same wavelengths as cell phones, which may lead to interference in crowded areas, and this should be avoided and planning well.

Price and availability in the market

We recommend the Hollyland Mars T1000 Intercom to people looking for an affordable, permanent connection solution for photo groups and small teams. And you just have to realize that it will not work in a kilometer radius. And the

The durability is great even if the device is subjected to a shock it will not be affected by the solid metal body. And it is suitable for rental, if you decide to rent it to other people. The price may not seem low on first seeing it, but it is actually quite affordable compared to similar solutions in the market.

Hollyland is actually running a promotion on the system through the end of September - the regular price is $ 1800, now just over $ 1500.
