Sennheiser ME 2 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector (Black)
The black Sennheiser ME 2 is a miniature professional lavalier microphone featuring a locking 3.5mm connector for Sennheiser transmitters and engineered for reliable, interference-resistant performance with wireless systems—making it a popular choice for presentations, interviews, broadcast work, and film/video applications.
With a speech-focused frequency response from 50 Hz to 18 kHz, the ME 2 filters out muddying lows and extreme highs to provide clear, intelligible results for instructors, journalists, and presenters in need of a solid workhorse lavalier they can depend on. The mic handles SPL levels up to 130 dB without distorting, while the omnidirectional polar pattern picks up sound from 360° around the capsule, helping to deliver consistent levels, even when the talent turns away from the capsule.
The ME 2 features a durable 5.2’ cable that provides ample room for movement and terminates in a locking 3.5mm connector wired for Sennheiser wireless transmitters. The electret condenser capsule requires 7.5V of power from your wireless transmitter, portable audio recorder, or similar compatible device. An integrated windscreen helps to reduce wind noise, and a lapel clip is included.

Industry-Proven Performance
Headroom for Standard Vocal Applications
The ME 2 is designed to handle up to 130 dB SPL without distorting, providing headroom for broadcast-quality interviews, speech, and dialog.
Omnidirectional Polar Pattern
The forgiving omnidirectional polar pattern picks up sound from all around the mic and provides a consistent frequency response, even for off-axis sound. This helps to supply clear, intelligible speech and vocals, even when the talent isn’t speaking directly toward the microphone.
Speech-Centered Frequency Response
With a frequency range from 50 Hz to 18 kHz, the ME 2 filters out unnecessary high and low frequencies for accurate and transparent speech reproduction.
Optimized for Wireless
The ME 2 has been engineered with an updated capsule and a more durable cable featuring a gold connector to better resist interference and provide a strong signal when used with wireless systems.
