XS 1 Handheld Dynamic Microphone,Black

This is very nice! I have a $600 Sennheiser microphone, but this sounded like my expensive wireless Sennheiser. It’s worth for the price. Very good quality to use for practice or home karaoke.

It's a good mic for the price... I have an e835 that I love but it doesn't have a on/off switch and the one that does is a little out of my price range at the moment so I ordered this one on a whim... It's not as deep sounding but it's very clear and it seems pretty durable...

Very reliable vocal mic. I would compare it to the SM58, but a lot more affordable.

Pleased so far. Sound quality is good and no hiss or hum. Seem very sturdy and love the on/off function.

Works just great for my trivia nights. feels pretty indestructible, which is the kind of quality I was looking for and expected from Sennheiser. The sound is clear, and directional.

First impressions: Everything about this microphone screams quality. It is very heavy for it's size, and the finishing is perfect. The pouch it comes with is perfectly sized for both the microphone and it's holder. The switch moves smoothly but firmly, and you can feel when it is in it's place. It may say "Made in China", but the German engineering is blatantly shown in every design feature of this device. I will do a follow up review in a few days after using it a few times to discuss it's connectivity and sound.

[4.5 STARS] For the price point, this is probably the best mic out there. It's a solid Sennheiser mic, too, of which I've used for nearly three decades. I run a trivia company and with over 15 hosts, this is the exclusive microphone that I've built into our mobile kits (we own just shy of two dozen). In 8 years, I've only had two fail on us, and that's with weekly use, with our hosts using them several nights a week (I personally host 4-5 games a week and have had zero issues). One completely failed (no sound), while the other magically lost its ability to reproduce low-end. Otherwise, these have been pretty solid. They do have one major flaw, and that is handling noise. It can be dialed back if you have the right EQ and depending on what you are using it for, but depending on how tight the on/off switch is, you'll heard a slight "thud" when activating it. And too much handling of the mic in the wrong spots will pick up unwanted noises, but again learning proper mic technique can get your around most of that, just be aware that it's there. I do wish the capsule was replaceable (I use an SE2 on my wireless Sennheiser mics), but at the $50-ish price point it's asking a lot. Seriously, this is a great little mic for the money. If you aren't willing to spend twice as much for the e835 (especially if you need the switch because the 935 doesn't have one) then this is the mic you'll want to buy.

I used it today, for the first time at a church performance. It's a really solid microphone. I bought it to have an extra mic, but now I'm going to use this one as my primary. My previous mic, I found out was an SM58 fake. It was so light and felt like a toy. I will keep that around for an emergency back up.

This is a very nice microphone for the price. It's a solid build that feels good in the hand. Nice on/off button. Nice sound and no issue with audio feedback when standing in front of the speaker (that my old cheaper microphone had big problems with).

Le rapport qualité-prix est bon

El micrófono me lo recomendó un amigo que estudia audio, me había comentado que se trataba de un modelo que usaban para casi todo y que los sacaba de apuros en funciones en vivo. Yo lo uso únicamente para grabar mis guitarras, voz y percusiones en mi estudio casero; debo decir que el producto excedió mi expectativas. La construcción es de calidad y los materiales también. En cuanto a la calidad del audio esta es muy buena pero tiende a exaltar más las frecuencias medias y altas porque en sí está diseñado para voz. Habrá que tomarlo en cuenta al momento de ecualizar demás instrumentos. No obstante, se trata de un excelente micrófono para todos los niveles.

For the price this is a great little microphone I have used a lot. I'm used to a very old EW300 G3 which I adore, you need to jack the volume up to get noise from these, but they have a really nice low end drive. Very clear, but looses pickup for me at the higher notes (Male singer). The metal case has always been my fav as the weight gives a sense of quality when using it, also more durable.

当方、コロナ禍のテレワークを契機にあれこれマイクを購入しはじめた初心者。だが親父の影響でSansuiのアンプやTEACのオープンリールをいじりながら育ったこともあり、マイク沼にはまるのにさほど時間はかからなかった。 購入するマイクはDTMなどの用途ではなく、せいぜいYouTube配信やWEB会議などのライトな使い方のみ。 コンデンサーのクリアな音質に憧れ、オーテクAT2020や中華製品などをしばらく使っていた。しかしその多くがサイドアドレスタイプで、口元に近づければ近づけるほどPCの画面が見えにくいことに気付きはじめた。ならばと20センチも離せば、今度は外部音を拾い出し、どうも案配が良くない。 そこでハンドヘルドのダイナミックをいくつか購入した。XM8500やSM58など、配信にオススメと言われる機種を使ってみた。だが元々コンデンサーのクリアさを求めていたため、それらは低音域のこもりの点で不満だった。話し声を波形で見ても、明らかに200〜300Hzあたりが強くなっている。 SENNHEISER社の製品はPC7というヘッドセットのみ所持していたが、保有するマイク類の中でこれだけ中高音域の抜けが好みだったこともあり本機を購入。 まず、ボディの質感に感激した。中身が詰まっている感があり、触っただけでメカ好きの心を捉える。 音質はコンデンサーに近く、中高音域が気持ちよく駆け上がる。当方のようなバス系の声質にはとても良い。そして口元に近付けて話しても吹かれがほとんどない。これはボーカルマイクとしては大きなアドバンテージだ。 スイッチはスライド式。ヌルっという感覚でオンオフ時のノイズはほぼない。 外箱にはmade in chinaと小さく書かれてあった。ドイツ製を謳う同社Eシリーズとの決定的な違いはこれだろう。まぁ、同社の厳しい目で品質管理されているのだろうし、価格のメリットを享受できるのだから問題なし。 追記 感染対策を施した上で、200人参加のリアル社内会議を行った。司会役として、会場に備え付けられていたSM58と、持ち込んだ本機を何気に使い分けた。終了後、本機を使用した時間帯の声の通りが良かった、との評価を複数人から得た。
