Overview

The Neumann KK 205 is a premium supercardioid condenser capsule head designed for Sennheiser wireless handheld transmitters. Derived from the award-winning Neumann KMS stage microphone series, it brings true studio-quality condenser performance to professional wireless systems while maintaining the ruggedness required for demanding live productions. It is compatible with Sennheiser SKM 2000, SKM 6000, SKM 9000, EW G4 300/500, and EW-D handheld transmitters.

Studio-Quality Wireless Performance

Unlike conventional dynamic stage capsules, the KK 205 uses a precision-engineered true condenser capsule that delivers exceptional vocal clarity, fast transient response, and a smooth frequency response with an airy high end. Its frequency-independent supercardioid polar pattern provides excellent rejection of off-axis sound, resulting in higher gain before feedback and improved intelligibility without excessive equalization.

Designed for Professional Live Vocals

The KK 205 is optimized for close-miking applications. A built-in low-cut filter compensates for the proximity effect, maintaining clear and controlled bass response even when performers sing directly against the grille. The hardened steel grille incorporates an advanced internal pop filter that minimizes plosive noise while protecting the capsule from moisture, all without introducing excessive sibilance.

Rugged Stage Construction

Designed for professional touring and broadcast environments, the KK 205 withstands sound pressure levels up to 150 dB without clipping. Its robust construction, excellent handling-noise suppression, and easy-to-clean grille make it suitable for concerts, theatre productions, television broadcasts, corporate events, and houses of worship.
