More Details

Sennheiser ME2-II Overview

The black Sennheiser ME 2 is a miniature professional lavalier microphone featuring a locking 3.5mm connector for Sennheiser transmitters and engineered for reliable, interference-resistant performance with wireless systems—making it a popular choice for presentations, interviews, broadcast work, and film/video applications.

With a speech-focused frequency response from 50 Hz to 18 kHz, the ME 2 filters out muddying lows and extreme highs to provide clear, intelligible results for instructors, journalists, and presenters in need of a solid workhorse lavalier they can depend on. The mic handles SPL levels up to 130 dB without distorting, while the omnidirectional polar pattern picks up sound from 360° around the capsule, helping to deliver consistent levels, even when the talent turns away from the capsule.

The ME 2 features a durable 5.2’ cable that provides ample room for movement and terminates in a locking 3.5mm connector wired for Sennheiser wireless transmitters. The electret condenser capsule requires 7.5V of power from your wireless transmitter, portable audio recorder, or similar compatible device. An integrated windscreen helps to reduce wind noise, and a lapel clip is included.

Industry-Proven Performance
Headroom for Standard Vocal Applications
The ME 2 is designed to handle up to 130 dB SPL without distorting, providing headroom for broadcast-quality interviews, speech, and dialog.
Omnidirectional Polar Pattern
The forgiving omnidirectional polar pattern picks up sound from all around the mic and provides a consistent frequency response, even for off-axis sound. This helps to supply clear, intelligible speech and vocals, even when the talent isn't speaking directly toward the microphone.
Speech-Centered Frequency Response
With a frequency range from 50 Hz to 18 kHz, the ME 2 filters out unnecessary high and low frequencies for accurate and transparent speech reproduction.
Optimized for Wireless
The ME 2 has been engineered with an updated capsule and a more durable cable featuring a gold connector to better resist interference and provide a strong signal when used with wireless systems.

Sennheiser ME2-II Reviews

Rock Solid As Expected

By Nathan
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2025-12-04

I Now Own 7 Of These And None Have Died In The 10 Years I Have Been Using Them. They Have Been Rock Solid For My Use. I Do Take Good Care Of My Gear.

What happened to the quality?

I've been using the same ew100G3 wireless pack for the last 12 years. This is the third lavalier microphone I've had with it, and it is by far the shortest lived. The first two were at least 5 years each, and even when the coating started to shear away from the wire, a little bit of electrical tape and it was good to go until I could source a replacement. But this one? It was purchased in September 2022 and it's already dead. Not a blemish on the outside, but something must be broken on the inside as it sends zero signal. I tested it with a different lavalier and while the sound was terrible, it at least sent a signal to my camera. I'm seriously disappointed in the quality of this product. I've had no other problems with this wireless pack, and I'd hate to replace it just because this microphone's quality has decreased to the point where I can't trust it will work when I need it.

Can you remove the windshield protector?
Asked by: Fabio
Agreed, I'm shocked that I can't remove the windshield. The original ME2 you could do this, I don't know why in the world you can't. It's bulky, and I can't hide it underneath clothing, nor use stickies or other mounting devices.

If i use Me 2 mic with Sennheiser EW100 G3, will it improve audio quality?
Asked by: Arslan
Hi Arslan - the ME 2 is an excellent option and comes standard with both the EW 112P G4 and EW 100 G4-ME 2. If you’re looking for a step up from this model, please see the MKE Essential, which incorporates the same capsule used in our award-winning MKE 2.

Does this work with the Sony UWP-D11?
Asked by: herbert
The Sennheiser ME 2 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector (Black) does not work with the Sony UWP-D11 Integrated Digital Wireless Bodypack Lavalier Microphone System as Sony uses a proprietary wiring configuration. Instead, use the Sony ECM-V1BMP Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking Sony 3.5mm Connector (Black), which is B&H # SOECMV1BMP. It is the same lavalier mic that is included with most Sony wireless lavalier microphone systems.
