Sennheiser ME 2 Electret Omnidirectional Condenser Lavalier Microphone for Clear and Natural Sound in Broadcasting, Presentations and Video Production - Black (508935)

Perfect

Before considering this microphone, please note that unlike the Rode RØDELink LAV (or similar), the screw securing ring in the connector is NOT detachable. This means that if the input plug you wish to use does not have a locking screw thread, then this microphone WON'T work. The screw will prevent the plug from complete connection on a mic/input jack, where a screw thread is not present. It is NOT meant to work with camera's and cellphones, at least without using some kind of adaptor. The screw ring is designed to lock the lavalier microphone connection to the transmitter - so the talent cannot inadvertently disconnect the microphone. If you wish to use this with a XLR input, you will need something like the Rode VXLR+ connector to make the connection. For interviews and documentary use, this microphone is perfect for the job. Sennheiser sells a slightly better mic for this purpose if you are looking for broadcast quality, but for most of us who aren't looking for broadcast quality, this will fit the bill. This is the same microphone supplied with many Sennheiser wireless microphone kits including the AVX and G3/G4.

Bought two of these to replace my older ones that were giving audio issues. these had lasted 5 years, so can't complain but out of the two new ones bought, one is now not working, Mmm! Looking to see if I'm still in warranty to replace. The other is fine.

This mic CANNOT be used for CANNON 80D camera because this banding ring interrupts connection with the hole. Adaptor of mic doesn't go deep enough as this ring interrupt, which doesn't allow me to record right voice. As a result, I have to buy another mic without using this one. Literally I wasted 130£ without any value. Very poor design.

Fantastic sound, this has been my go-to lav this year, and there's not much to complain about. The build quality is very good (coming from a Rode SmartLav+), and the locking jack is a nice bonus. I do wish however that the capsule was a little smaller. The size of the capsule makes hiding the microphone in clothes challenging. If you rarely need yto hide your mics like me, it's no big deal, but for narrative work, maybe consider something with a smaller capsule.

Siempre había comprado lavaliers genéricos, o tenía uno original por ahí con un set sennheiser que compré usado. Y ahora que compro el de la marca, nuevo, ni siquiera funcionaba, daba sonido 2 segundos y se iba 10, probé en diferentes canales y en dos transmisores diferentes y no hubo caso. Para peor, lo compré para un trabajo fuera de México y me tocó ver como devolverlo hasta allá para poder alcanzar la garantía. Mala experiencia.

Il microfono si comporta bene anche all'aperto. E' selettivo sulla voce, di buona qualità audio. Consigliato

The Sennheiser ME 2 is proof that great things come in small, black packages. Clip it on, and suddenly I sound like I’m ready to host a TED Talk, narrate a documentary, or at least finally get taken seriously on Zoom. The sound quality is classic Sennheiser—clean, warm, and natural. It doesn’t color my voice, it just makes me sound like the best version of myself (which, let’s be honest, is all I’ve ever wanted). Being omni-directional, it picks up everything clearly without me needing to pin it at the perfect angle. I can breathe, move, or even gesticulate wildly without my audio cutting out. Durability? Solid. The cable feels tough enough to handle the daily grind, yet slim enough to stay discreet on camera. I’ve run it through presentations, interviews, and a few chaotic test recordings, and it hasn’t flinched once. Plus, it plays perfectly with SK bodypacks—plug and go, zero fuss. In short: reliable, professional, and tiny enough to forget I’m even wearing it. The ME 2 is like that friend who’s always calm, collected, and makes you look good without stealing the spotlight. If you need broadcast-ready sound from a mic smaller than a paperclip, this is it.

Pas déçu par ce micro de grande qualité. Se branche facilement à mon Rode Wireless Go. Un rendu très naturel, je le recommande.
