The XS Wireless Digital is Sennheiser a new entry-level wireless series with a unique performance promise and a particularly attractive design.
The Sennheiser XS Wireless Digital is a plug-and-play entry-level wireless series that operates in the 2.4 GHz royalty-free frequency range available worldwide. This allows users to concentrate fully on their creative work or performance and ensure reliable transmission at the touch of a button. Whether you need a clip-on microphone for the one-man video team or a wireless microphone ready for use on the spot - thanks to the super-fast synchronisation, you can get started immediately without tedious configuration. The new series consists of feather-light, compact plug-on transmitters and receivers with a choice of XLR connection, 6.3 mm or 3.5 mm jack connection.
The Sennheiser XSW-D with its user-friendly design is intended as a wireless "cable replacement solution". The system can be operated with a single switch and has a status indicator to monitor the charging situation and radio link. Thanks to the automatic frequency and interference management of up to 5 radio links Sennheiser can be operated in parallel. All devices of the XSW-D series have lithium-ion batteries with an operating time of up to 5 hours, which can be charged via USB connection.
The Sennheiser XS Wireless Digital can of course also be used for conventional MI and A4V applications such as band rehearsals, club performances, vlogging or video recordings of freelancers. Various MI and A4V sets are available for such applications. Thanks to the innovative design and simplified operation of the series, a multitude of other applications such as wireless stage boxes or radio transmission to loudspeakers can now also be realized. There are hardly any limits to the possibilities!

We use these mics a lot mainly for international work as they’re licence free. They’re so easy to use, lightweight and robust so adding another to the collection for the offered price was a ‘no brainier’.
If there was any negatives, it’s purely that you only get 1 usb charging cable so can only charge one unit at a time, however cables are only a few pounds so no big deal really, and the batteries are sealed inside so can’t hot/swap (like the AVX ones)... but with around 5 hours of use per charge, they’re great for interviews on corporate work etc.
I would and do recommend these mics every time for run and gun work as they just won’t let you down.
Works with a jack to XLR connector too but again, only get jack to jack in the box.
Worth the money?... every time. 👍🏼🎬
