Product Overview
The Sennheiser MKE1-5-K is a complete MKE 1 lavalier kit featuring a black MKE 1 with 3.3 mm capsule, reduced sensitivity (5 mV/Pa), ultra-thin 1.1 mm cable, and pigtail connector. The kit includes an MZQ222 clip and protective pouch. Designed for broadcast and theatre professionals requiring a discreet, high-performance lavalier solution. Available at Creation Networks.
Product Description
The MKE1-5-K is a complete professional lavalier kit centered on Sennheiser's MKE 1, the world's smallest microphone and a benchmark in broadcast and theatrical lavaliering. This variant features a 3.3 mm capsule head with a reduced sensitivity level of 5 mV/Pa, optimized for high-SPL environments where the standard sensitivity would cause distortion. The ultra-thin 1.1 mm cable is virtually invisible once routed under clothing, and the pigtail (unterminated) cable ends require connection to the transmitter-specific connector of your choosing. The MZQ222 dual-post tie clip is included for precise capsule placement. The protective pouch keeps the microphone safely stored between performances. The MKE 1 is the professional choice for theatre, broadcast, and film audio where the microphone must be completely invisible. Available at Creation Networks for professional production sound engineers.

Frequently Asked Questions

- The 5 mV/Pa variant has reduced sensitivity, making it more suitable for high-SPL environments where the standard version would distort. Choose the standard for quiet-to-moderate SPL applications.
- Is this microphone compatible with all wireless bodypacks?
