General

The Sennheiser E-840-S (white) is a professional dynamic vocal microphone with a noiseless on/off switch. Apart from the switch, this microphone has exactly the same specifications as the E-840. The metal housing of the Sennheiser E-840 is robust and durable, making it ideal for use on stage. Thanks to the clever construction the microphone hardly suffers from any feedback, handling noise and electromagnetic interference.

The sound of the E-840-S
Besides having a solid construction, the Sennheiser E-840-S produces an open and full sound, that will cut through the loudest stage mixes. The microphone suppresses ambient noise efficiently, thanks to its pickup angle. Its integrated shock mount makes it insensitive to handling noise. Via the switch you can easily mute the microphone, without hearing a loud sound over the PA system. In order to ensure that you won't accidentally switch off your microphone during a gig, it can be locked.

Sennheiser E 840-S dynamic vocal microphone
Wrote the following about Sennheiser E 840-S dynamic vocal microphone
Deze microfoons gekocht voor de oefenruimte. Ik wilde graag een robuuste microfoon met aan-uit schakelaar. De ruimte is vrij klein en omdat deze microfoons specifiek vermelden dat ze zeer resistent zijn tegen feedback heb ik deze besteld. Het verschil met de vorige microfoons is direct merkbaar. Een mooie, heldere klank. Ik kan echter niet zeggen dat ik gelijk merk dat ze resistent zijn tegen feedback, want het komt nog steeds voor.
