Sennheiser EW 500 G4-935 Wireless Handheld Microphone System with MMD 935 Capsule (GW1: 558 to 608 MHz)

The Sennheiser EW 500 G4-935 wireless microphone system delivers premium audio performance and rugged reliability for professional users who need a powerful and easy-to-use solution. Whether you're leading a presentation, performing on stage, teaching in a classroom, or speaking from the pulpit, this system offers the clarity, flexibility, and control you need to sound your best in any environment.

Designed for demanding applications, the EW 500 G4-935 includes a half-rack receiver with true diversity reception for stable, interference-free audio. Housed in a tough metal chassis, the receiver scans a wide 50 MHz UHF range to automatically find a clean frequency from 2000 available options. Its clear OLED display and intuitive jog wheel make it easy to set up and adjust, even in low light or fast-paced environments.

At the heart of the system is the SKM 500 G4 handheld transmitter, which comes equipped with Sennheiser’s renowned MMD 935 cardioid dynamic capsule. This mic is specially tuned for speech and vocals, offering rich, focused sound with excellent feedback rejection. The transmitter features a sturdy all-metal design and a backlit screen for essential performance info. Adjustable gain and lockable controls give performers the freedom to move confidently on stage without worrying about accidental setting changes. It runs up to 8 hours on two AA batteries and supports RF output up to 50mW for reliable transmission, even in crowded wireless environments.

With a transmission range of up to 330 feet, the system gives you the flexibility to perform or speak freely without dropouts. The Ethernet port on the receiver supports integration with Sennheiser's Wireless Systems Manager (WSM) software, allowing advanced control and coordination of multiple wireless channels—ideal for live sound engineers managing larger productions.

The receiver offers both balanced XLR and unbalanced ¼-inch outputs for seamless connection to mixing boards, PA systems, or audio interfaces. A built-in equalizer lets you fine-tune the tone, while the adjustable output level ensures proper gain staging with your gear. There's even a headphone output on the front panel so you can quickly monitor the signal on the fly.

The EW 500 G4-935 system also stands out for its adaptability. Its handheld transmitter features an interchangeable capsule design, so you can upgrade or change your mic’s pickup pattern by swapping in different Sennheiser capsules, such as the MMD 845 for supercardioid focus or the condenser-based MME 865 for added sensitivity. For those who prefer hands-free use, Sennheiser offers compatible bodypack transmitters that work with lavalier or headset mics, giving you even more flexibility across various performance or presentation formats.

This system is compatible with previous generations of Sennheiser evolution wireless gear, including G1, G2, G3, and G4 transmitters and receivers, as well as EW 100 and EW 300 series systems. That means you can integrate the EW 500 G4-935 into your existing setup without needing to start from scratch.

Whether you're outfitting a venue, building a touring rig, or upgrading your existing wireless mic system, the Sennheiser EW 500 G4-935 offers professional-grade performance and thoughtful features that make your job easier. From crystal-clear sound to rock-solid connectivity and future-ready expandability, this wireless system is built to meet the demands of real-world performance.
