EW-DP ME2 Set (R1-6)

This Sennheiser lav kit has honestly been a total game-changer for my video setup. The fact that it powers on and off with my camera automatically is one of those simple features that makes such a huge difference – no more worrying about forgetting to turn things off and draining batteries. What really stands out is how much cleaner the digital signal is compared to the older G3 and G4 models. The frequency finder is way more refined, and you get that signature Sennheiser audio quality without all the headaches. Sure, the transmitter doesn't have its own little display, but honestly, who cares? You can control everything from the receiver anyway – gain, frequency, all that stuff. And if you want to get fancy, there's even a phone app that lets you tweak settings remotely. The price point is actually better than those older models too, which was a nice surprise. But the real winner for me has been the frequency management. I do a lot of press conferences where there are tons of wireless systems all fighting for airspace, and since switching to these digital units, I haven't had a single clash. It just works. Build quality feels solid too – nice metal construction with this magnetic plate that snaps onto my camera setup really securely. I've got four of these units now and they've been rock solid across all kinds of environments and distances. Sometimes the simple upgrade that actually delivers is the best kind of upgrade. These units are ready to use right out of the box and they include a rechargeable battery system that holds up for many hours while still giving you the versatility of using AA batteries when needed. Overall a GREAT piece of kit for any video or audio professional.

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.

Sounds really good. We have it hooked to our sound board. I like having an app to mute/unmute the mic from the phone/tablet when the pastor forgets to mute/unmute. I know it was designed to be portable, but it works just as good this way too.

Worth every penny! Use this with a wireless speaker when I DJ and it has perfect sound through multiple walls with no drop out! Sennheiser always makes solid quality products.

I read the instructions. I behaved myself and installed the app. I used the app to sync the devices. Everything seemed great. I can't find information online, or in the documentation, as to why the receiver resets itself when the input passes a certain threshold. It's not in the video, but the receiver will reset itself when the audio gets close to peaking as well. The transmitter stays on without an issue. Why do I have to do an impractical, "UPS pickup," to return this. There's a UPS store that I wanted to drop this off at, but Amazon's return center didn't give me the option. I know it's dramatic, but I feel punished for being a customer.

This wireless setup is fantastic for inside or location recording. If you want to record outside, you'll likely want to also pick up a mic mitt so you don't have wind noise, but that's the only other thing you need besides what's in the box. The distance and clarity of this system is better than any other wireless system I've tried. I can see this being useful for on the street reporting or TED-type talks or church services. I think the secret to this system sounding so good and having such great range is that instead of using the 2.4Ghz band like cordless phones and wifi, it uses the UHF band, which can go through obstacles and even walls fairly easily. Getting the best UHF frequency for any location is very easy because it has an auto-scan where it will find the best frequency for the area you're in at the press of a button. Couldn't be easier. Everything you need to use this is in the box (with the exception of a mic mitt if you're recording outside), so it really is ready to set up and go as soon as you get it. I've been a Sennheiser fan for years, and this high-quality product doesn't change that at all. Recommended.

Sennheiser makes quality audio equipment and this wireless mic set is no exception! The build quality is excellent, but more importantly, the sound quality is spectacular!!! It's definitely an overkill for what I'm going to be using it for, but being able to future proof my expensive hobby is a nice thing! I've always wanted to move away from square and somewhat bulky mics that attach to clothing and pulls stuff down with its weight; now with this one... you get your classic wireless mic connection that attaches to clothing with a clip for a streamline look. The transmitter and the mic had no problem connecting, and the range is awesome. In terms of the size, the transmitter is light and compact; the receiver is a bit on the bulky side but it's not huge by any means. I'd take extra receiver size over interference-free high quality audio any day. I'll be expanding it in about 6 months or so with additional receivers and mics, but at this point, it fits my needs perfectly. Highly recommended!
