The SENNHEISER's E835S is a portable cardioid dynamic microphone with a frequency response optimised for clear vocal and speech reproduction. Its dynamic element has a frequency response of 40 Hz to 16 kHz and does not require any power. The cardioid polar pattern excludes sound from behind the mic, resulting in improved feedback immunity and reduced room background pickup. The sturdy, metal design provides tour-worthy toughness, while a hum-compensating coil helps keep unnecessary electrical noise to a minimum. For easy muting of the mic between talks or performances, a quiet on/off switch is provided. Most microphone preamps and mixer inputs are compatible with the XLR 3-pin output. A mic clip and a protective pouch are included with the e835S.
