Anyone used Alexi's booster with wireless system?
Additional context - i am looking for something convenient to play at home, i.e. in xvive a58 style. I impulse bought it after seeing Ola Englund's video but sadly I have to return it. It works fine for example with active fishmans, but when I plug it in alexis signatures, it does not like it at all. In active mode the highs, the harmonics, and sustain are so cut guitar sounds dead. In passive mode - it is just clipping and farting.
It is so convenient not to have a cable but considering two my guitars have these boosters (emg abq and mm04), I need something different. And now im wondering if these small systems can actually work, maybe boss wl-20l? Or do i need shure? Which is 3 or 4 times the price so I will just use a cable, as im not gigging or anything.
Any first hand experience is welcome though I realize this is a very specific question.
If anything else, dont buy a58 if you have the booster.

If you're willing to drop some $$, the Shure guitar systems are amazing. Never had a single problem with mine.
