sE Electronics V7 MC2 RED Wireless Microphone Capsule

The sE Electronics V7 MC2 RED is a dynamic wireless microphone capsule made for compatible Sennheiser handheld transmitters. It gives performers a way to bring the V7 vocal microphone platform into an existing wireless setup without replacing the transmitter system. Designed for vocals and speech, it is intended for live sound applications where wireless mobility is needed.

The capsule uses a supercardioid pickup pattern to focus on the performer’s voice while reducing pickup from surrounding instruments and stage monitors. Its stated 40 Hz to 19 kHz frequency range and aluminum voice coil support a clear, open vocal presentation. This makes it a practical choice for singers, presenters, and other handheld wireless-mic users.

At the center of the V7 MC2 RED is a dynamic capsule with a neodymium magnet and 300-ohm electrical impedance. The specified sensitivity is 2.0 mV/Pa (-54 dBV). Its construction is designed for the demands of handheld stage use while retaining the familiar V7 sound character.

A patented integrated shockmount helps decouple the capsule from mechanical vibration, reducing handling noise caused by movement. The internal windscreen is designed to reduce wind noise and plosive pops, and a spare black internal windscreen is included. Gold-plated contacts support a reliable connection between the capsule and its compatible transmitter.

The V7 MC2 RED is an upgrade path for users who already own a compatible Sennheiser handheld transmitter and want a different vocal capsule. It is a capsule rather than a complete wireless microphone system, so a compatible transmitter and its associated receiver system are required for operation. The compact 87 mm capsule assembly installs in place of the compatible transmitter’s existing capsule.

Design & Installation

The V7 MC2 RED has an all-metal design with a durable zinc-alloy chassis and a beveled spring-steel grille. The grille is designed to resist dents and corrosion, while its beveled edge helps prevent the microphone from rolling when placed on a flat surface. The red finish is paired with a supplied spare black internal windscreen for an alternate appearance.

This capsule requires a compatible Sennheiser handheld transmitter and does not operate as a standalone wired microphone. Confirm transmitter compatibility with sE Electronics’ compatibility guidance before purchase, then install the capsule according to the transmitter and capsule instructions. It is suited to wireless live vocal and speech systems where a supercardioid dynamic capsule is desired.
