Sennheiser’s new entry-level series offers complete sets with sturdy units, simple operation and high quality sound. The transmitters have a battery life of up to 10 hours, while a switching bandwidth of up to 24 MHz allows for flexibility in the choice of frequencies. The series is comprised of two vocal sets: an instrument system and presentation sets with clip-on microphone or a headmic.
The systems include the XSW 35 Vocal Set with EM 10 receiver, SKM 35 dynamic handheld transmitter with cardioid capsule and mains unit, stand mount, antennas, batteries, pouch and manual; the XSW 65 Vocal Set with EM 10 receiver, SKM 65 condenser handheld transmitter with super-cardioid capsule, mains unit, stand mount, antennas, batteries, pouch and manual; the XSW 72 Instrument Set with EM 10 receiver, SK 20 bodypack transmitter, CL 1 jack cable, mains unit, antennas, batteries, pouch and manual; the XSW 12 Presentation Set with EM 10 receiver, SK 20 bodypack transmitter, ME 2-2 omni-directional clip-on mic, mains unit, antennas, batteries, pouch and manual; and the XSW 52 Headmic Set with EM 10 receiver, SK 20 bodypack transmitter, ME 3 cardioid head-worn mic, mains unit, antennas, batteries, pouch and manual.
For the XS Wireless Series, Sennheiser engineers focused on ease of use; the systems are operated via intuitive menus and automatically search for free frequencies while transmitters synchronize with their receivers via wireless link. XS Wireless includes two systems for vocalists and one instrument set for guitarists. Vocalists can choose between a handheld with a super-cardioid condenser capsule and one that includes a genuine dynamic e835 capsule.
For installed sound applications and presentations, users can choose between systems with a handheld transmitter or a bodypack transmitter with either a head-worn mic or an unobtrusive clip-on microphone. Mute buttons on the handheld and the bodypack ensure that speakers are in control of the transmission.
The systems feature freely tuneable frequencies within a switching bandwidth of 24 MHz (13 MHz for the E frequency range). This allows up to 12 wireless links to be operated simultaneously, ensuring trouble-free operation even at somewhat larger events.
