help Sennheiser ME 105 FAQ
What Sennheiser wireless systems is the ME 105 lavalier compatible with?
Sennheiser lavalier microphones in the ME and MKE series typically use locking mini-jack connectors compatible with Sennheiser bodypack transmitters such as the evolution wireless (EW) series and SK series transmitters. You should verify the specific connector type and wiring scheme matches your bodypack before purchasing, as connector configurations vary by system generation.
What is the difference between the Sennheiser ME 105 and the MKE 2 lavalier?
The MKE 2 is Sennheiser's established miniature lavalier known for its moisture-resistant capsule and high SPL handling, widely used in broadcast and theater. If the ME 105 exists as a separate variant, it would likely occupy a different price or feature tier, but you should check Sennheiser's current product catalog for exact specifications as model numbering can vary by region.
Does the Sennheiser ME 105 require phantom power or a bodypack?
Most Sennheiser miniature lavalier microphones are electret condensers that receive power from a wireless bodypack transmitter rather than standard 48V phantom power. If using with a wired system, you would need an appropriate power supply or adapter that matches the microphone's connector and voltage requirements.
How does the self-noise of the Sennheiser ME 105 compare to other lavalier mics?
Sennheiser's professional lavalier microphones typically achieve self-noise figures in the range of 26-30 dB-A, which is suitable for broadcast-quality dialogue capture. The specific noise performance depends on the capsule design, and the description's mention of a hydraulically damped capsule suggests engineering aimed at minimizing handling and mechanical noise.
