Identical to the E840, the E838 is a Cardiod vocal microphone designed for tough stage use, it features and excellent presence even with extremely loud stage levels. The 838 cuts through high on-stage sound levels with ease whilst maintaining excellent feedback rejection.

The Sennheiser e838 Microphone from the evolution 800 Series has been engineered for the vocalist that needs the vocals to cut through the band. Due to its excellent acoustic properties, the E 838 mic delivers a high signal output to cut through high on-stage sound levels with ease. A gentle presence boost to even tonal response ensures vocal clarity and projection.

The balanced frequency response maintains signal quality when moving on and off axis during performance. The minimal proximity effect provides for consistently clear bass-end performance when singing closer to, or further from the microphone. The cardioid pick-up pattern provides excellent feedback rejection and good isolation from incidental rear noise. The rugged metal construction and internal damping isolates handling noise.
