Frequently Asked Questions
What type of connector does the Sennheiser e602 II use?
The e602 II connects via a standard XLR output, compatible with any mixer, audio interface, or preamp with an XLR input.
Can the e602 II handle the extreme volume levels inside a bass drum?
Yes, it is rated for greater than 155 dB SPL, which comfortably exceeds the sound pressure levels produced by even aggressive kick drum playing.
Does this microphone require phantom power?
No, the e602 II is a dynamic microphone and does not require phantom power to operate.
How is the e602 II mounted for use?
It features an integrated stand mount built into the housing, designed to stabilize the microphone's relatively heavy body on a standard mic stand or boom arm.
What is the polar pattern of this microphone?
It has a unidirectional (cardioid) polar pattern, which helps isolate the target instrument and reject sound from the sides and rear.
