Sennheiser EW-DP ME2 SET (R1-6) Portable Digital UHF Wireless Microphone System with ME2 Omnidirectional Lavalier - Black (700011)

My partner has found this receiver to be an excellent addition to his kit. It’s compact, fairly lightweight, and it feels robust. He found it easy to set up and it works seamlessly with his existing kit. It’s great quality.

This wireless microphone system from Sennheiser is a significant upgrade from its predecessor. It offers improved build quality, superior sound quality, and a more user-friendly interface, which sets it apart from other systems on the market. Here are the key features and benefits as I see them.Operates on UHF frequency: Cheaper/older systems tend to broadcast on 2.4GHz frequency, which is the same as older/dual-frequency Wi-Fi. This can lead to interference. UHF prevents any issues with Wi-Fi interference.High-quality cardioid lavalier mic: This is sensitive, so experimenting with placement is advisable before any live events.Useful Smart-Assist app helps make the setup quicker and easier.Bluetooth sync ensures low latency and provides remote control features, such as mute/unmute, gain, and output adjustment. This practical tool is perfect for serious content creators and professionals.Magnetic mount: This makes attaching/detaching the receiver to the camera's hot shoe very simple.Good battery life: It can last around 7 hours on a single charge, and you can use 2x AA batteries as backup.Informative RX display: Shows gain control and remaining battery life.Excellent range: Reliable indoors and outdoors within typical working distances; the signal may drop after about 22 metres.In summary, this is an exceptional wireless microphone kit designed with the professional in mind. It's a considerable financial investment, but in the long term, it should save you time and significantly improve the quality of your audio. As someone who does a fair bit of high-end media work, I highly recommend this product.

We've been having issues with a recently bought system suffering endless sound quality issues when used in the workshop area, but also some issues outside - turns out it operates on the same frequency as WiFi - 2.4ghz!This system doesn't suffer the same issues at all - operating on UHF.This has been a massive step up in quality - both in terms of build quality and sound quality, but also in user experience, as this is very simple to operate, and leaves so much less work to do in post too!The quality of the lavalier is very good. It's sensitive, so it's worth experimenting with placement before starting to record your piece.There is an IOS app we are using that makes it simple to sync (via Bluetooth) and there is hardly any latency at all. This App also has some nice control functions included - mute/unmute, gain, and output can be adjusted without having to keep going to the person mic'd up - again, excellent functionality!We have it mounted to our Canon via the shoe, and then the RX simply snaps to it via magnet mount - super easy to fit and remove as needed.The battery that's included will give you around 7 hours time - but you can use 2x AA batteries to get you out of a jam if the battery runs out - very useful to know! I should note, there is a power input of course, but if you plug this in while recording, it will pick up interference - or so we found anyway.The RX display shows gain control and also shows the available battery time remaining, so you can see clearly how long you have.I almost forgot - range! We've used this for around 4 weeks now, both indoors and outdoors. Indoors we've found no issues anywhere in our building, even through the 1 or 2 walls/doors it has still remained reliable and clear. Outdoors we have had zero issues in normal use, but did test the limits and we found the signal start to drop after around 22 meters or so. For us, this wasn't an issue, but something to bare in mind of course.It is a fair chunk of money for sure, but considering how much faster this was to get working, and working really well, and the less time the audio will take in post, and of course the incredible audio quality now available for our videos, I have no reservations about recommending this, 100%! An exceptional piece of equipment.

Easy to set up and use. The magnets keep the receiver in place safely. In my test, range and audio quality performed well and battery life was also good. Using Bluetooth with iOS was also trouble-free.A bit pricey but if it lasts a long time it will serve you well.

I got this for my singing recordings, hoping to improve audio quality. It is a small and compact device, it doesn't take much space on the desk and it is very good quality. Batteries were included. You have to check you are getting the right one for you. This is the first high end receiver I'm using and operation is simpler than expected. I didn't have to change my WiFi to 2.4gh for this which I was pleased. The audio quality is excellent and makes the sound clearer,easily checking where I need improvements. Good for professional use or semi professional.

I never had such a mic, but this is big difference from what I had till now. Good quality ,clear sound. Transmitter looks small and not that important ,but it is. Nice feeling in hand and I recommend it.
