The Sennheiser EW-D ME2/835-S SET (R1-6) is a versatile, professional digital wireless combo system that provides two distinct microphone solutions in a single, comprehensive package. Operating within a defined UHF frequency range (R1-6, typically 470-558 MHz as a regional example), this system leverages Sennheiser's fully digital EW-D platform to deliver pristine audio quality, robust RF performance, and advanced features for demanding applications in live sound, broadcast, and corporate AV. The set is uniquely configured to include both a lavalier system and a handheld vocal system, comprising a digital bodypack transmitter with the ME 2 omnidirectional lavalier microphone, a digital handheld transmitter with the MM 835 dynamic cardioid capsule, and a single, dual-channel digital receiver capable of managing both transmitters simultaneously. This offers exceptional flexibility for presenters, production teams, or venues that need to accommodate different presenters or speaking styles within one event.

The lavalier component features the discreet ME 2 miniature condenser microphone, ideal for clear, natural speech capture when the microphone must be hidden from view. The handheld component provides the trusted, feedback-resistant vocal performance of the MM 835 capsule for open speaking or musical performance. Both transmitters utilize a fully digital signal path, converting audio to digital at the source for a clean, interference-resistant transmission with extremely low latency. The sophisticated dual-channel receiver is the command center, featuring a high-resolution color touchscreen that provides independent control, real-time RF spectrum analysis, and monitoring for both channels. It includes professional tools like 128-bit AES encryption and Ethernet networking for system control.

Engineered for operational simplicity and maximum capability, the system offers automatic frequency coordination and grouping to ensure both channels operate interference-free. The digital architecture guarantees consistent, high-fidelity audio across its operating range. The receiver provides independent balanced XLR and unbalanced 6.3 mm jack outputs for each channel, allowing seamless integration into any mixing console. As a complete combo set, the Sennheiser EW-D ME2/835-S (R1-6) provides production professionals with a powerful, all-in-one digital wireless toolkit that covers both discreet and open speaking needs, combining flexibility, top-tier audio quality, and the reliability of modern digital wireless technology.
