The e 914 offers refined, natural sound that brings acoustic performances vividly to life. Its musical treble response and full-bodied tone capture the character of cymbals, strings, percussion, and grand pianos with stunning precision—delivering mixes that feel lively, dimensional, and true to the source.
Ready for High-Pressure Performances
With its exceptional SPL handling and adaptable switching options, the e 914 is ready for any challenge. Whether you're capturing delicate orchestral passages or high-energy drum overheads, you can tailor the microphone’s response to match your needs—without sacrificing fidelity or clarity.
Tailor Your Sound with Ease
The onboard three-position low-end roll-off and sensitivity switches give you quick, intuitive control to adapt the e 914 to your exact needs. The first position reduces low frequency rumble and wind noise, and the second is a roll-off to compensate proximity effect when close mic’ing. Whether you’re working with a delicate nylon-string guitar or a roaring rock kit, you can fine-tune your setup without needing outboard gear—ensuring a clean, refined sound from the start.
Built for Stage and Studio
Designed to meet the demands of professional touring and recording environments, the e 914 pairs rugged metal construction with Sennheiser’s legendary engineering. Backed by a 2-year (USA: 10-year) warranty, it delivers outstanding directivity, reliable performance, and peace of mind that every nuance will reach your audience—performance after performance, session after session.
