AT Wireless System Issue

Alright, so here is where I am now. Since I cannot fully trust that AT2100 lav, I am looking at purchasing one more lav setup. I am torn between these two:

I am curious what everyone's thoughts are. The biggest "plus" to buying the AT3100 series is that I can still use my Countryman B6 mics that I have been using on the AT2100 series.

Thoughts?
 
If you can, go for the Sennheiser 300 series instead of the 100. It has the ability to see the battery level of the Transmitter and show the info on the receiver's LCD. I like the way the color of the LCD screen changes from "Green" good to "Red" bad. Immediately letting you know if something is up. Nice when you have a few of these in a rack. For example, you could immediately see that "Peggy's" transmitter is on "Mute".

Here is a video tutorial on the 300 series http://vimeo.com/1926732
If you look at 4:56 into the video you can see the Autoscan scanned all banks and lets you know how many of the channels are available. Pretty slick.

If you send the Countryman B6 into their offices, they can throw on a new connector for a small fee.

Also, if you order the 300 series, order it with the "Instrument cable" instead of with a lav or handheld to save a few bucks. We're a Sennheiser dealer, and sponsor of this site, if you'd like a quote, just PM me. We beat B&H's prices for DVXusers.
