Sennheiser MKE2-3-C TA4FV Lavalier Microphone

The MKE 2 is Sennheiser's subminiature omnidirectional condenser lavalier, a fixture on broadcast, theater, and film sets for decades. The omnidirectional capsule captures the voice evenly no matter how the wearer turns, so it stays consistent clipped to a lapel or hidden in wardrobe, and it shrugs off the popping and handling noise that catch out directional capsules. A pre-polarized condenser element and a 20 to 20,000 Hz response give it a full, natural voice with detail that survives a busy mix.

This version uses the high-output capsule rated at 31 mV/Pa and terminates in a TA4F miniature connector wired for Vega bodypack transmitters. The beige housing keeps it discreet against skin and light wardrobe, and it ships as the bare microphone and cable with no added accessories.
