The Sennheiser XSW-D XLR BASE SET Digital Wireless Plug-On Microphone System, offered by B&H, delivers a complete, ready-to-go wireless audio solution for professionals working in dynamic or outdoor environments.

Fast, Reliable Wireless Audio with One-Button Simplicity

The Sennheiser XSW-D XLR BASE SET is designed for users who need quick setup, clean sound, and intuitive controls. The system includes a plug-on transmitter that works with any standard XLR dynamic microphone, and a compact XLR receiver that plugs directly into mixers, audio interfaces, or PA systems.

With its single-button interface, all power and pairing functions are streamlined. Both the transmitter and receiver come pre-paired from the factory, so you can plug in, power up, and get started within seconds.

Clear Sound on Stage or in the Field

Built for singers, speakers, and content creators, the XSW-D system offers Sennheiser’s trusted wireless audio quality in a lightweight and affordable format. Whether you're on stage, in a house of worship, or outdoors capturing an interview, this system ensures your voice is heard with clarity and consistency.

The 2.4 GHz digital transmission operates license-free worldwide and avoids interference from TV or radio channels. It automatically selects the best channel available, offering reliable wireless coverage up to 250 feet line of sight.

Polsen M-85 Dynamic Handheld Microphone: Built for Performance

Included with the system is the Polsen M-85 professional dynamic microphone, ideal for live vocals, speech, and interviews. Its cardioid polar pattern focuses pickup on the speaker while rejecting unwanted ambient noise and feedback, making it well-suited for stage and field environments.

This mic is housed in durable all-metal construction and includes an on/off switch for quick muting during breaks or transitions. With a balanced XLR output, it ensures a clean, noise-free signal path. No batteries or phantom power are needed, just plug in and you're good to go.

Bubblebee Big Windbubble: Outdoor Wind Protection That Works

For those recording in breezy or harsh weather, the Bubblebee Big Windbubble with long-haired faux fur provides superior wind noise protection for handheld microphones. Its layered design includes a dense faux-fur exterior and a smooth mesh lining that prevents wind from distorting your audio.

The windscreen fits securely over most standard handheld microphones and is especially useful for field journalists, outdoor performers, and event hosts who need professional audio even in unpredictable environments.
