Sennheiser ME 2 Lavalier Microphone — Clear Speech for Wireless Bodypacks

The Sennheiser ME 2 is a small omni-directional clip-on condenser microphone designed for speech and vocal applications where intelligibility matters most. Built around a pre-polarised condenser capsule, it pairs directly with Sennheiser evolution Wireless SK bodypack transmitters, AVX, SpeechLine Digital Wireless, and XS Wireless systems. The ME 2 is the right choice for presenters, broadcasters, and content creators who need a discreet lavalier that delivers articulate voice reproduction in live, on-camera, and recorded settings.

What Sets This Lav Apart

What separates this lavalier from many competitors in its price tier is its brighter, more detailed sound character — reviewers consistently describe it as sounding more usable and less muffled than rival capsules in standard chest and collar positions. A metal grille and strain reliefs at both cable ends give the ME 2 a build that holds up to daily clip-on use.

Capsule Design — Speech Intelligibility That Cuts Through

The acoustic behaviour of a lavalier microphone determines how clearly a voice translates through a wireless chain. Engineered specifically for that task, this model features a polar pattern that picks up speech evenly regardless of head movement and a capsule tuned to add upper-frequency presence.

• Transducer Type: Pre-polarised condenser — brighter character
• Pickup Pattern: Omnidirectional — captures voice consistently from any direction, simplifying placement on clothing where the speaker cannot monitor their own mic position
• Audio Frequency Response: 50 – 18,000 Hz — wide enough for natural vocal timbre and clear speech articulation across the spoken-word range

Sensitivity, SPL & Noise — Handling Loud Voices and Quiet Studios

For presenters who speak with strong projection and podcasters who record in treated rooms, the electrical specs of a lavalier decide whether the capsule clips, hisses, or stays clean. The ME 2 offers enough headroom for loud speech while keeping sensitivity high enough for typical bodypack input stages.

• Max. Sound Pressure Level: 130 dB — handles loud speech
• Sensitivity (free field, no load, 1 kHz): 17 mV/Pa — produces a healthy output level for typical wireless bodypack input stages without requiring extreme gain staging
• Equivalent Noise Level: 32 dB — usable for dialogue and presentation; reviewers note this is higher than premium lav alternatives and worth considering for very quiet studio recording

Connectivity & Physical Design — Built for Wireless Bodypacks

Engineered to plug straight into Sennheiser's wireless ecosystem without adapters, the ME 2 keeps setup simple for stage, camera, and field use.

• Connector: 3.5 mm mini-jack — pairs directly with evolution Wireless, AVX, SpeechLine Digital Wireless, and XS Wireless bodypack transmitters
• Cable Length: 1.6 m
• Capsule Diameter: 6.5 mm with a 30 g product weight — small and light enough to stay virtually invisible on camera without pulling fabric

Who Should Choose the Sennheiser ME 2

The ME 2 is the right choice for presenters, lecturers, worship leaders, and mobile journalists already running Sennheiser evolution Wireless, AVX, SpeechLine Digital Wireless, or XS Wireless systems. Its omnidirectional pattern forgives head movement and inconsistent placement, making it well suited to interviews, panel discussions, and on-camera work. Content creators producing YouTube videos or podcasts will appreciate the brighter tonal character that helps voices cut through in untreated rooms.

Sennheiser — Decades of Wireless Microphone Engineering

Sennheiser has built its reputation around wired and wireless microphones, complete wireless systems, and studio-grade headphones, with the evolution Wireless family becoming a standard in live production, broadcast, and corporate AV worldwide. The ME 2 extends that ecosystem as a compact lavalier designed to add value to an existing Sennheiser wireless rig, backed by a two-year manufacturer warranty.
