Combining the new Neumann KK 105 S capsule head with the Sennheiser SKM 5000 N* Wireless System thrusts the legendary Neumann sound into the wireless domain for the very first time, thus opening up new dimensions in sound for sophisticated live-performance engineering.
In terms of engineering, the KK 105 S is based on the KMS 105, 140, and 150 family of wired vocalist microphones.
It inherits not only their outstanding tonal characteristics and specifications but also their sturdiness and efficiency in suppressing popping and handling noise.
The Sennheiser SKM 5000 N* handheld transmitter is an
advanced version of the SKM 5000, optimized for the Neumann
capsules, and ensuring reliable, interference-free,
high-quality transmission of the capsule signal to the
corresponding Sennheiser receiver.
The capsule and handheld transmitter are available with the typical Neumann nickel-colored finish and in black. The KK 105 S package includes a spacious, roadworthy nylon pouch big enough to hold not only the capsule, but the transmitter, battery packs, and additional accessories as well.
These new product components are a dream come true for countless customers, who time and again demanded a wireless variant of the successful Neumann KMS 105. Simultaneously, this combination unites the core areas of competence of two established global players and market leaders:
Neumann – the world’s leading manufacturer of condenser microphones, and Sennheiser – the market leader with years of experience in the area of high-quality wireless systems.
* Also all existing Sennheiser SKM 5000 handheld transmitters can be upgraded with the Neumann KK 105 S capsule head. Still, to take full advantage of the acoustical properties of the KK 105 S it is recommended to utilize the new SKM 5000 N.
