Sennheiser EK 500 G4 Pro Reviews

Awesome!

I really dig this set up. The 500 series is the way to go when it comes to range. I often use a boom operator, so it's great for a wireless set up. I almost gave it four stars because it's not exactly set up for the operator to hear what they are recording. An extra receiver is required for that. Overall, it's a great product though.
