Sennheiser MKE 2 EW Gold

The Sennheiser MKE 2 EW Gold is a sub-miniature omnidirectional lavalier microphone with a locking 3.5 mm jack for Sennheiser evolution wireless bodypack transmitters. It's one of the most widely used clip-on mics in film, television and theatre, known for clean, natural speech and a rugged build.

The omni pattern captures the voice evenly, so placement on a lapel, a tie or under clothing is forgiving, and the sound stays consistent when the talent turns their head. Its low self-noise keeps quiet dialogue clear, and the small capsule hides easily on wardrobe or in hair. Beyond speech, it also works on acoustic instruments in a pinch.

The locking jack screws onto the input of Sennheiser SK bodypacks, so it won't pull out when the talent moves, and the transmitter powers the mic. Rent it in Montréal with one of our wireless kits for interviews, documentaries, corporate videos and stage shows.
