The Polsen PL-2O Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone is a replacement microphone for the Polsen UWM-2 wireless system, and it's also compatible with Sennheiser transmitters. The PL-2O is a great choice for clear and accurate voice capture in quiet environments for vlogs, interviews, podcasts, and mobile journalism. With a simple twist, the 1/8" (3.5mm) TRS plug locks onto your transmitter's input jack and inhibits unintended disconnection while the 46" cable provides plenty of slack for freedom of movement.
By utilizing an omnidirectional polar pattern, the PL-2O is able to pick up sound from all sides of the mic, ensuring consistent speech capture even when you turn your head. Plus, it makes the mic more resistant to vocal plosives and wind noise. Discreet placement of the PL-2O is easy, thanks to its small 1/4" diameter and included tie clip.

Polsen PL2 Reviews
Great Price, but noisy
Production sound mixer since 2010. Pros: Cable seems durable. Plugs in and locks with no problem to my Sennheiser G3 Tx. Directionality is good. Cons: pretty noisy. The signal-to-noise ratio isn't good, so there's very much an audible white noise/hiss when set to gain appropriate for speech. What can you expect from a $20 mic? The mic clip also cannot rotate, so the mic can only be mounted perpendicular to the clip; not good if you need to clip onto a horizontal edge of clothing. Good to know: this is NOT a mic to use hidden. It's on the larger side and also the cable length is too short for rigging the Tx any lower than the waist. Would only recommend for presentation speech, unhidden, and that's IF you're ok with the noise.
Works fine
They work fine, but the pictures don't accurately convey how large the microphone is. The mic is much larger than the other mics in my stock and it better suited to interviews or lectures where hiding the mic isn't a priority. The price can't be beat though.
