EW-DP ME 2 Evolution Wireless Digital R1-6 Lavalier Mic System, Black 700011

When I saw this Sennheiser wireless handheld microphone I knew I HAD to order it for my son , whose band is starting to make videos with their releases as they progress they want to update their outdated equipment . This arrived in its own branded box . Included inside were :- EW-DP EK receiver EW-D SKM-S handheld transmitter MMD 835 dynamic cardioid microphone module mounting kit including plate, cold shoe, belt clip and screws BA 70 battery pack and 2x AA batteries locking 3.5mm TRS plug to 3.5mm TRS plug cable locking 3.5mm TRS plug to XLR plug cable USB-C charging cable . Downloading the app the EW-D Smart Assist provides automated setup , operation, and monitoring using any iOS or Android device via Bluetooth which was a bonus because this is such new kit my son hadn't tried anything as expensive or technical before , he said after his initial read of the operating instructions he found it easier to set it up with his amplifier in the studio ( it's also compatible with Personal Computers and Karaoke Machines ) . His view is this is the best microphone he's used ( and after 8 years he's been through a lot !). He says there's hardly any feedback when turning if in which will be welcomed when setting up for gigs . It's so well made it fills him with a multitude if possibilities how far he can push his music career . This set would be perfect for anyone in the music business from DJs to comperes . A solid piece of magical tech that's well priced .

This radio mic kit comes with a transmitter and mic, and a receiver, with locking minijack cables as well as XLR cables. The transmitter uses AA batteries (included) and the receiver uses a larger battery which charges via USB C. Also included is a clip for the mic if you're clipping directly to clothing. It also includes a magnetic mounting plate, (the receiver has four small magnets allowing it to snap on to the plate VERY securely), and the necessary 1/4 screws to mount that to something like a camera. Also of note is the receivers are stackable using the magnets, which is ideal if you're rigging directly to a camera and need two of them. I only have one so I wasn't able to actually try this, but it's worth mentioning! The antenna on the receiver are adjustable on the and rotatable, and seem very durable too. The receiver has a built in screen allowing you to check levels, battery life of itself and the transmitter (in percentage, not just a simple bar), and also connection strength. The transmitter is very small, build quality feels great too. It's got a convinient mute switch (easy to use but not so much that it would be knocked accidentally!), so actors have piece of mind when they need to speak privately. The on off switch is inside the battery door, as is standard on most transmitters so it can't be accidentally turned off. There's a single built in antenna which feels very robust. Build quality seems great, it would definitely survive some knocks! The receiver is a little large, that's honestly the only downside with this kit. It's not a problem if you're mounting to a large camera or if you're using it in a bag, but it's a bit bulckier than it feels like it needs to be - I've had people ask if the receiver works with two transmitters, as it looks like the sort of size that would, but it doesn't. However, build quality is again amazing, the magnetic mount idea is super smart! The built in screen takes all guesswork out of the equation so you feel safe knowing your levels are good and nothing will die. You can even display time remaining instead of battery percentage. The sound quality is of course the most important thing! It sounds absolutely fantastic, very well rounded for a radio mic, with a clear crisp sound. Human voices sound natural, and I'd happily use it instead of the boom in a lot of situations. Senheiser seems to be targeting this more at camera operators who perhaps regularly end up recording sound themselves for interviews and need something good and reliable. The inclusion of different mounts for cameras makes it super useful for that, along with the stackable design and easy display so batteries are never stressful! So I'd highly recommend it for people in that kind of job.

If your looking at this you probably know the reputation of Sennheiser. This wireless microphone does not disappoint. It sounds great, is easy to use and very flexible to setup. Including cables in the box to connect to various different inputs, mean setup is quick and easy. Broadcast distance is great too and very clear. Ideal for loads of different applications, be it on stage or off. Highly recommended.

The receiver doesn’t work. It will only turn on if it’s plugged into USBC. I tried multiple AA batteries and the lithium ion battery pack. None of them work. Was supposed to shoot with it today real bummer. In addition The Kit is missing the cold shoe adapter as well as the screws and the microphone we received was the incorrect Lavalier. This led to a ton of wasted time on set Jerry rigging it to my gimbal. Adorama tried to get out of this part saying that the cold shoe adapter wasn’t included in this kit, which is patently false. The kit absolutely does come with the adapter and even has a picture of it listed on the outside packaging with the box. ALSO In the box, we received the ME4 Lavalier and we were promised the ME2 Lavalier, which is much better suited to my needs than the ME4. I bought this item at a discount and I was hoping to resolve this by receiving the correct Lavalier and a functioning receiver, as well as the cold shoe adapter and screws, but instead Adorama opted to issue me a refund and said that I could re-order the unit at full price. This is really poor Customer Service in my opinion. I had always thought that Adorama was a professional company that would do the most basic quality control on their items for their clients. The fact that items were missing and or swapped out their parts and I received a completely non-functioning unit is totally out of lines with my expectations. Extremely disappointed.

This has been a very dependable unit for me. I primarily use it to wirelessly transmit to a satellite speaker at weddings and other events. The battery life on the receiver is very good. The Bluetooth app makes it easy to spot check the battery levels or tweak settings from your phone. The auto channel scanning and pairing is easy to use. The cable options make it very compact and versatile.
