About the Sennheiser XSW 2-ME3-A Wireless Headmic Set
The Sennheiser XSW 2-ME3-A is a complete professional wireless headset microphone system, combining a reliable UHF wireless transmitter and receiver with a high-quality headworn microphone. This set is engineered for performers, presenters, and instructors who require consistent, hands-free vocal delivery with the freedom to move. The system operates in the A-band frequency range, which is pre-coordinated for reliable use in the United States and other regions, providing a stable wireless link with automatic frequency selection and synchronization for straightforward setup. The inclusion of both transmitter and receiver in one package offers an out-of-the-box solution for users seeking to upgrade from wired microphones or establish a new, dependable wireless channel.
The headset component features the ME 3 microphone capsule, a miniature electric condenser microphone known for its clear and natural vocal reproduction. It is mounted on a flexible, adjustable boom that allows for precise positioning near the corner of the mouth, ensuring optimal pickup and consistent audio levels. The headband is designed for comfort and stability during extended wear, with a secure fit that accommodates various head sizes. The cardioid pickup pattern of the capsule focuses on the voice directly in front while reducing sensitivity to ambient stage noise and monitor speakers, which significantly improves gain before feedback—a critical advantage in live sound environments.
The wireless components are designed for professional ease of use. The bodypack transmitter is compact and lightweight, powered by two AA batteries, and features a clear display showing frequency, battery life, and audio level. It connects to the headset via a secure locking connector. The matching single-channel diversity receiver offers robust reception with true diversity and an intuitive interface for quick setup. With balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4-inch outputs, it integrates seamlessly into mixing consoles, portable PA systems, or installed sound systems. This all-in-one set provides a reliable, broadcast-quality wireless audio link, making it an ideal choice for fitness instructors, theatrical performers, worship leaders, and corporate presenters who demand a professional, hassle-free wireless microphone solution.
