Sennheiser XSW IEM Wireless In-ear Monitoring System
If you've been hanging out for a cost effect in-ear monitoring system with a big brand name on then finally you're in luck! The Sennheiser XSW IEM Wireless In-ear Monitoring System system is purpose built to offer pro-level IEM features with beginner-friendly operation — all at an affordable price! This system includes an EK receiver and an SR transmitter that are easily synced with the infrared sensor, along with the ability to add more EK receivers if you need to upgrade your system. The XSW IEM includes simplified features for the beginner, including easy-to-use preset frequencies, but it also offers deeper functions to grow into: the manual frequency control, EQ, and limiter offer a wide range of customization possibilities to perfectly dial in your setup. What's more, Sennheiser includes all the accessories needed for a stage-ready rig right out of the box, including a pair of noise-isolating IE 4 earbuds and a rackmount kit to integrate the XSW IEM into a larger setup.
Like the more expensive Evolution Wireless IEM systems the XSW IEM also allows transmission of 2 independent mono mixes from the one transmitter. So by purchasing an extra receiver you can create 2 mono foldback mixes for 2 separate musicians. In fact you can add on as many receivers as you like for musicians who are happy to receive the same mix.
