What is it? Handheld microphone transmitter. 

 

The Sennheiser SKM 5200-II is the next evolution of the SKM 5200 microphone. Robust, reliable and user-friendly, this professional handheld transmitter is suitable for most recording and transmission situations. The mechanics, electronics and operating concept were designed to meet the highest requirements of live events.

The microphone offers a switching bandwidth of up to 184 MHz. The "HiDyn plus" noise suppression system developed by Sennheiser reduces RF noise to an absolute minimum, ensuring a wide dynamic range and crystal-clear sound. Programming is extremely flexible: the SKM-II 5200 has both a fixed and a variable channel bank. All parameters are shown on a backlit LCD and can be locked to prevent accidental adjustment and checked within seconds. The handheld transmitter is compatible with all capsules, battery and rechargeable battery compartments of the 5000 series as well as with Neumann microphone heads.
