The black Neumann KK 104S Capsule Head combines with the Sennheiser SKM 5200 / SKM 5000 N Wireless Systems to take sound into the wireless domain, thus opening up new dimensions for sophisticated live-performance engineering.

In terms of engineering, the KK 104S is a wireless variant of the KMS 105, 140, and 150 family of wired vocalist microphones. It inherits not only their impressive tonal characteristics and specifications, but also their sturdiness and efficiency in suppressing popping and handling noise.

The Sennheiser SKM 5200 and SKM 5000 N handheld transmitter are advanced versions of the SKM 5000, optimized for the capsule head, and ensuring reliable, interference-free, high-quality transmission of the capsule signal to the corresponding Sennheiser receiver. The capsule is available in a black-colored nickel finish to coordinate with the handheld transmitter. It also comes in a spacious, roadworthy nylon pouch, big enough to hold not only the capsule, but the transmitter (sold separately), battery packs (sold separately), and additional accessories (sold separately) as well.

This heavy-duty capsule features integrated foam pop-screen instead of wire mesh for even better plosive attenuation. In addition, the foam material provides a very large surface area and can therefore absorb moisture very well.

Q: 7. We have an old sennheiser mike, ew-100, SKM 100, with frequency range 518,000 - 550,000 Mhz. It works with the Sennheiser diversity receiver EM100, with same frequency range. Will this mike SKM 825-XSW-A, work with the above receiver?

A: This is the XSW series which operates on the 2.4GHz frequencies and is not compatible with the EW series, which are UHF Based systems. You have 2 options for a handheld for your existing system: 1) Get the SKM 100 Transmitter Item# SESKM100G4SA + Capsule Item# SEMMD835 (or if there is another capsule you prefer. 2) Get the SKP100 Plug on transmitter SESKP100G4A and use any Dynamic microphone of your choice. Sennheiser has some great mics but if you already have other mics in your arsenal, it will work perfectly with this plug on transmitter. NOTE: The frequency range on your existing system, and the items I recommended are a little different, but they are in the same range so you will have plenty freqancies to play with.
