SR5117 wireless capsule completes the 117 family

Following the introduction of its SR117 handheld vocal microphone, Earthworks Audio has expanded the 117 family with the introduction of the SR5117 wireless capsule. The SR5117 is a supercardiod condenser wireless microphone that is compatible with all Sennheiser wireless systems. Earthworks says it has a fast, clean and responsive frequency response that is voiced with rich, clear lows, smooth vibrant mids and open highs.

Although built for touring, the rugged SR5117 is suitable for a range of environments, including stage and TV. The company says it provides both the power and quality of a condenser microphone, but with the safety and familiarity of a dynamic mic. Meanwhile, its pattern control across all frequencies offers maximum feedback rejection. The variant comes on the back of the Shure SR3117 wireless capsule version released last year.
