These days, theater shows and live transmissions are all staged in a very complex manner. The requirements placed
on professional wireless sound transmission are growing—as is the time and cost pressure involved in productions.
On the one hand, your system must fulfill global production standards and be extremely flexible. On the other, it is
important to make a sound investment and select a system that you can rely on for years, one that works dependably
for daily use and rentals. A professional wireless system is required—a system that can grow with your needs, and
thanks to an intuitive design, not only saves time but can be used in a versatile manner.

SK 2000 The compact SK 2000 bodypack transmitter is both versatile
and reliable for the wireless transmission of instruments and voices. Bass
guitar players in particular appreciate its outstanding audio quality, thanks
to an extended audio frequency range (25–20,000 Hz). A particularly robust
Sennheiser connector enables sound transmission with the clip-on MKE 1
microphone (highly suitable for use in musicals, broadcasts and film). The
rugged SK 2000 can be used anywhere, both indoors and out.
EM 2000/EM 2050 The heart of the 2000 series is the EM 2000 true
diversity receiver, available as a 19-inch unit with single- or double-channel
designs. With five UHF frequency ranges and a switching bandwidth of up to
75 MHz, it offers great flexibility. With the help of its Ethernet connection,
professional frequency management takes place directly through WSM (Wireless
System Manager) software on your PC. The transmitters’ automatic synchroni-
zation via an infrared interface saves valuable time during set-up.
The integrated antenna loop-through enables systems that have up to 16 chan-
nels to be set up without an external splitter. The integrated guitar tuner makes
the EM 2000 the perfect wireless system for guitarists when used in combination
with the SK 2000.
SKM 2000 Whether in the studio or for outdoor broadcasts: the SKM 2000
is perfect for any live situation. Its powerful sound and robust metal housing
make it a top-class vocal microphone, which has already proved itself on the
largest stages of the world. External contacts make charging even easier, and
the legible display on the handheld transmitter provides easy access to all
menus. In addition, the RF output power is adjustable (10/30/50 mW, 100 mW
for the US version).
The SKM 2000 is compatible with all evolution capsules from the 800 series
(black) and the award-winning 900 series (blue, black). What is more, for the
2000 series, the real condenser capsule e 965 (nickel) is now also available for
wireless transmitter.
The highly legible display of the hand-
held transmitter offers a perfect overview
on the status of the transmitter.

SR 2000/SR 2050 The stationary SR 2000 transmitter in a robust 19-inch housing is available as a single- and double-
channel transmitter. In addition to the intuitive menu, the Ethernet connection makes operation very user-friendly. Use it to monitor
and control your entire Sennheiser system remotely, directly from a PC. With its switching bandwidth of up to 75 MHz in five
UHF frequency ranges and its adjustable transmission power (10/30/50 mW, 100 mW for the US version), the transmitters of
the 2000 series can be used in a particularly flexible manner. The 5-band graphic EQ allows you to individually adjust the sound
within the transmission path.
EK 2000 IEM This wireless monitoring bodypack receiver is extremely robust in two different ways. The metal-reinforced battery
cover is particularly well-suited for the rough-and-tumble world of everyday stage life. What’s more, transmission security has been
boosted by integrating adaptive diversity. With this technology, the earphone cable functions as a second antenna, significantly
reducing the number of drop-outs.
