Sennheiser EW-DP SKP Reviews

Finally cut the cable on my boom setup — and I'm not going back

By Mark
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-04-10

Running a corporate livestreaming operation means audio has to work, every time, no excuses. I've been using the EW-DP SKP plugged into a shotgun mic on a boom pole, feeding directly to a wireless receiver mounted on the camera — and honestly the setup couldn't be cleaner. What sold me was the flexibility. No cable runs from the boom to the camera, no tripping hazard across the stage, no fumbling with connectors during load-in. The digital link is rock solid and the plug-on form factor means I can swap mics without rewiring anything. It just... works. Setup was genuinely painless, which matters when you're moving fast on a corporate event. If you're doing ENG-style run-and-gun or live event work and you're still tethered with an XLR snake from your boom to your mixer — do yourself a favor and try this system. The freedom of movement alone is worth it.

Great budget option for ENG style shooting

Very performant unit for this price point. Onboard recording is a huge plus. Remote controllability is nice. The biggest problem here is the build quality. The battery door on my unit does not like to latch closed very easily, and the whole thing is plastic-y.

The Sennheiser video says 32 bit float recording but the specs given by BH say 24 bit. Which is correct?
Asked by: John
Hi John - when the EW-DP SKP plug-on transmitter was launched, the onboard recording function was limited to 24-bit; a firmware update earlier this year enabled 32-bit float recording selectable through the Smart Assist app.
