The set includes an intuitive stationary receiver for quick setup and hassle-free handling, as well as a vocal microphone and microphone clamp.

• Excellent live sound featuring Sennheiser’s renowned evolution microphone capsules (e825 or e835)

• Antenna-switching diversity reception

• Integrated antennas

• Automatic frequency management and synchronization via remote channel for easy setup

• Selectable UHF frequencies within a large bandwidth

• Up to 10 compatible channels

Automatic Frequency Management so you can focus on your performance
We developed XS Wireless 1 for those that want to concentrate on the show and not so much on the gear. Simply turn on XSW 1 and let the Automatic Frequency Management do the rest. In optimal environments, you can operate up to 10 wireless connections simultaneously, all without having to search for frequencies or worry about interference.

825 or 835, that is the question…
You’ve decided on XS Wireless 1, but you aren’t sure which capsule to go with. In most cases, the 825 is everything you’d need in a vocal mic—quality sound packaged in a design built to last. While the 825 is ideal for speech, the 835 is for vocalists that want a little more help cutting through the mix. Featuring a gentle boost at 3kHz – 5kHz to help with vocal presence, and then enhanced frequencies up to 12kHz for added brightness, the 835 helps your voice shine right out of the box.
