Pros & Cons
Pros
Excellent audio quality. Instant setup. Sound output is great and above all a very stylish piece of equipment.
This lav set is a huge improvement on the old e100s. The lav mic appears to be their highly rated me2, which is a really nice small lav mic that performs really well. Sennheiser uses 256bit aes encryption, and the the rodelink system provides 128bit e... Read More
Kit comes with handheld microphone and lavalier's transmitter. Small receiver plugs into an xlr audio jack on a professional camcorder. You can use aas in the transmitter pack battery thingers.
Audio is crisp, clean, and professional. This is one of those devices that is supposed to make the life of a one man videographer easier. Recommended for the professional and serious amateur videographer. Both the rode and the at.
Cons
Its only a 430mah battery and of course spares are an absurd $50 a piece. The mic clip for me2 is junk.
Highlights
Quality
Sound quality is exceptional, easy to setup, batteries last
Best lav and mic kit i ever bought.
Dummy proof, on the go, fast and reliable piece of equipment.
Audio is encrypted and digital with 19 ms latency.
Price
This system is worth every penny, especially if you're working solo.
Using additional microphones simultaneously will require the purchase of an additional receiver for around $500.
If you are thinking about buying a set but are hung up on the price, don't even double think it.
The price for this unit is on the high end.
Packaging/appearance
In the package, you'll find the transmitter bodypack, lav mic, receiver, power (for non xls systems) and some additional accessories.
Competitiveness
The audio is far better than the blue yeti usb microphone i invested in years ago.
Almost in lectrosonics territory, but in my opinion the sound quality is so good that it is even better than the old technology... Read More
That said, when compared with a rode rodelink or audiotechnica atw system using the same lav, i don't hear any difference.
Sennheiser uses 256bit aes encryption, and the the rodelink system provides 128bit encryption on the link.

My previous sennheiser system was solid but required a cable for the receiver to plug in to the xlr input and the antennas were frail and eventually lost their flexible coating

If youre using a compact pro video camera that means with other systems you need a cold shoe mount and a double bracket if you need more than one microphonethat makes the camera more unwieldy

I tried to use an offbrand microphone as a backup and it did not provide good shielding from interference so it picked up humming and sometimes crackling
