Frequently Asked Questions

E-band is less congested than lower frequencies, meaning fewer competing signals and a cleaner wireless performance, especially in busy environments.
Absolutely. It’s much more resistant to bumps and knocks than plastic, which is vital for stage or location work where gear takes a beating.
While the ME2-2 is excellent, the SK-XSW bodypack is compatible with other Sennheiser lavalier microphones, offering some flexibility if needed.
