Overview

The Sennheiser MS 5220T E902 Kick Drum Mic Kit bundles one of the most respected kick drum microphones with the stand and cabling needed to get recording or performing immediately. At the heart of the kit is the Sennheiser E902, a dynamic cardioid microphone engineered specifically for low-frequency sources. Its 20 Hz to 18 kHz frequency response captures the full tonal range of kick drums and bass guitar cabinets, while its fast attack and high maximum SPL handling ensure that even the hardest hits are reproduced cleanly without distortion. The cardioid polar pattern focuses pickup on the sound source and rejects off-axis bleed from snares, toms, and other nearby instruments.

Complementing the microphone is the Auray MS-5220T short tripod stand with a telescoping boom arm, purpose-built for low-profile placement in front of or inside a kick drum. The included 20-foot XLR cable provides a clean signal path to a mixer or audio interface without requiring additional purchases. Together, the components form a complete, performance-ready kit suited for live sound reinforcement, studio tracking, and rehearsal spaces where reliable low-end capture is essential.
