Your cart is empty.The e865 S is the highlight of evolution 800 Series stage microphones. It is a rugged cindenser mic that cuts easily through high on-stage levels. Full precise sound, especially in the treble. It has a noiseless On/Off switch.

Well, I wish I could provide feedback on the performance of this model. But mine arrived DOA, which has gotta be rare for this brand. I have another Sennheiser mice (e945) which is outstanding with my portable Apple devices and TASCAM recorder.I can’t give this a 5 star review, nor is 1 star really fair. But as there is no exception, I have to call it as I see it, a dead product for hundreds of dollars and the inconvenience of the return. It’s likely very good, and my experience is an anomaly I’m guessing so take this into account.

It may work for you but it didn’t for me. I have a pretty nice karaoke system and my current cord and microphone are similar. The mic fit my current cord just fine but would produce no sound. Ive ordered several and had the same result…no sound. Not sure what the problem is.

مايك ألماني ممتاز، فعلا جودته عالية وصوته واضح جدا، يظهرلك كل التفاصيل في الصوت.لكن إذا كان عندك ضوضاء صعب جدا إنك تتحكم بها، لأن التقاطه حساس كونه مايكروفون مكثف، تحتاج بيئة هادئة إلى حد ما.

Wow! This Mic is what I've wanted.Its detail, clarity are insanely fantastic. Its louder and does cut through music.I play acoustic guitar and sing, so basically the voice is on display.It captures every subtle flicker in my tone. Which when singing an Acoustic set is necessary for impact. I have a Smooth/Baritone voice. Its best for when u need to hear every nuance. Like ballads, or very personal songs that require emotion through hearing everything.This makes me sing Better because u have to when u hear everything. I felt like i was always pushing for this type of vocal but never getting the detail with a handheld mic.Rarely does something do exactly what it says it does.This actually does exactly what it says it does.I wrote this so others wouldnt have to wonder and buy a bunch of other mics like i did. When in reality this one is "the One." Also i wanted to say another good Mic for Male Vocals is the MXL V67.Those 2 mics are my absolute favorite mics. I own about 8 mics of different varieties.It rejects surrounding noise.

A lovely clear warm sound low to high range. Excellent feedback rejection and works on phantom power. A good sturdy case for live gigs. All in all a good professional microphone.

I am just a singer, so I can not give you all the technical pros of this mic. I sing with a big band, and I have had a hard time competing to be heard over the horns. After refusing to "eat" the community mic, I bought the Sennheiser E835 for my personal mic to eat, and it seemed to help a bit but there was still the issue of my too-soft voice. This year I upgraded to the E865S and WHOA Nellie -- during sound check for the first show using this mic, they had me sing as soft as I possibly could, and I was barely whispering out sound and it was full, rich, and warm. That has never happened to me with any other mic before. I'd also had an issue with feedback (mostly because they had to turn me WAY up to hear me before, and I still had to plug an ear to hear myself over the band), but with this mic there was no feedback at all, which was honestly the main reason I purchased it to begin with, after reading all the reviews. I figured I would just have to build my voice up to produce a louder sound myself, but with this mic I could sing comfortably and still be heard over the horns. Definitely a big step up.This mic allows me to sing as I really sing without trying to force more volume, which in turn allows me to give a much better performance, I think. And I didn't have to plug an ear, either. ;-) I am super-pleased.

After being frustrated with various other microphones. I decided on the Sennheiser e 865s. "The clouds disappeared and the heavens sang". This is an excellent vocal mic.After many years playing and singing, I have been through many varieties of mics. This one is a keeper for sure. I have used many other vocal mics and some were even the very expensive types. I am talking in the thousands of dollars microphones. But this one had escaped me. I had read many reviews and decided to click the "buy" button on Amazon. Good price, and free delivery by the next day.I tested the mic and all seemed good. The next day I had a gig. I set the mic up and all went well. I had been getting awful feedback from the other mics. This one had absolutely no feedback. I generally sing and play medium rock and blues songs. So vocals are important in the blend of the music and vocals. The gain buttons on at about 50% and the volume buttons are about 60-70% levels on my PA systems. I have push it to the higher gains and volumes and still no feedback.This is a condenser vocal microphone. So you will need "phathom power" to generate sound. To get the best sound quality you need to be close-up on the mic. It does not pickup good sound from being away from the center of the mic. It is a "supercardiod" mic but close up is best. This is good because it tends not to pickup ambient sound which adds to feedback.The sound is smooth and clear all the time. I decided on the e865s, the S means it has a "on and off" switch. Yeah I was "gun" shy, so I wanted a quick off switch for potential feedback, so far I have not needed to use this feature. This mic is sturdy and feels and looks like a "Dynamic" mic, but it is not. The louder you speak or sing the better it gets. It comes with a mic stand adapter and a carry storage bag. I would recommend storing in the bag when not use. Also buy a "pop" filter to protect it from vocal moisture as well. I will probably buy another one at this price. Even a "used" one would work well.Excellent product from the Sennheiser. I have their other products and are also excellent investments. ( Disclaimer I am not associated with Sennheiser in any way.)Signed "Happy Vocalist".

Quit working after six months. Sent it in for repair or replacement and they sent it back to me in unusable condition. So it's pretty much $350 down the toilet. You can't make a career out of paying ups ten bucks to send stuff back and then get it back still not working.

Gerade habe ich mir mein zweites Mikro e 865s von Sennheiser gekauft, da ich für einige Zeit im Ausland sein werde und dies mitnehmen will. Da bisher bei Amazon noch keine Rezension vorlag, wollte ich dies hiermit nachholen.Mein jetziges besitze ich schon seit etlichen Jahren und benutze es regelmäßig in meinem Homestudio aber auch immer mal wieder bei live-Auftritten. Die Klangqualität ist ausgezeichnet und sehr "natürlich"! Besonders gefällt mir die robuste Bauweise, die auch mal einen "Schlag" verträgt und die absolute Zuverlässigkeit. Seit vier Jahren im Gebrauch und nie ein Problem.

Excellent mike. What I didn't know when I purchased it is that it requires phantom power to operate. I didn't pay attention to the "condenser" part in the description. So, don't do what I did and send the first one back thinking it was DOA. The replacement didn't work either, but then I thought to check to see if phantom power did anything. Yep, turn on the phantom power and it works just fine. So, purchase only if your setup provides phantom power via a balanced XLR (TRS) mike cable.I've used the mike a couple times now and I'm impressed with its performance. Sennheiser is always a good bet when it comes to quality. I furnished the band with several Sennheiser models over time and every one from the lower end to this upper end performs perfectly.
