Sennheiser MKE2-4-K Gold Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone

The Sennheiser MKE 2-4 Gold is a subminiature omnidirectional clip-on condenser for professional body-worn miking on stage, in broadcast, and on set. Its pre-polarized Gold capsule measures only a few millimeters across, so it hides on a lapel, tie, or costume while holding a natural 20-20,000 Hz response. The welded housing and ultra-light Umbrella Diaphragm shed perspiration through long, hot shows without dulling the sound.

This variant terminates in a 3-pin SE connector for Sennheiser SK-series bodypacks (SK 50, SK 250, SK 2000, SK 5212, SK 6000, SK 9000). It is finished in black for dark wardrobe and stage use, and ships as the MKE 2-4 Gold-C microphone with a short (MZC 2-1) and long (MZC 2-2) slip-on cap.
