Sennheiser EW-D
The wireless Sennheiser EW-D microphone systems break current boundaries with a greater dynamic range than any other systems currently available. In everyday use the system automatically finds the best transmit frequency within seconds and at the same time allows up to 90 additional channels thanks to a 56 MHz switching bandwidth. The microphone systems impress with advanced features that simplify the setup process, guarantee an especially reliable UHF connection and deliver outstanding sound quality with digital 24-bit audio. It's easy to see: this wireless system is in a class of its own.
Evolution Wireless Digital uses an equidistant frequency grid, a feature previously found only in flagship systems like Digital 6000 and 9000. High-quality components with exceptional linearity eliminate intermodulation between EW-D transmitters, allowing frequency spacing every 600 kHz. That simplifies frequency coordination for beginners and experienced users alike and contributes to the system's scalability and high channel count.
With the Sennheiser Smart Assist app and the power of Bluetooth Low Energy, control is literally in your hand. Comfortably from your Android or iOS device you can enjoy the benefits of fast automatic setup, mobile access to all system settings and remote monitoring. You save time and effort and can work with more confidence and less stress.

Sennheiser presents the forward-looking wireless systems of the Evolution Wireless Digital series, abbreviated EW-D, the successors to the successful Sennheiser G4 product range. Thanks to state-of-the-art digital technology, they offer the largest dynamic range and the lowest latency of any systems currently available, compared with the analogue predecessor series.
Automatically and within seconds the EW-D systems find the best transmission frequency and, thanks to a 56 MHz switching bandwidth, offer up to 90 additional channels simultaneously. The equidistant frequency grid was previously reserved exclusively for the flagship models Digital 6000 and Digital 9000 and makes frequency allocation and coordination of multiple systems easy and convenient. Thanks to the Sennheiser Smart Assist App for iOS and Android devices, setup and adjustments can be made conveniently via smartphone. The EW-D series offers systems for handheld, lavalier and headset microphones as well as for instruments.

In the 1950s Sennheiser focused on the development of condenser microphone technology, which became widely used on film sets and in TV studios. A milestone was certainly the wireless microphone system developed together with NDR for professional TV use, which from 1958 was marketed together with Telefunken under the name "Mikroport".
In 1960 Sennheiser presented another highlight and introduced the dynamic microphone MD-421, which is still produced and sold today. Thanks to its versatile applications, the MD-421 is one of the best-known microphones in the world and helped establish Sennheiser early on as a leading manufacturer of professional audio equipment internationally.
The first open-back headphone in the world also comes from Sennheiser. It was called the HD-414 and remains one of the best-selling hi-fi headphones of all time.
In 1982 Fritz Sennheiser handed over management to his son Jörg, who continued to expand and internationalise the company.
Another masterstroke from Sennheiser was the HD-25 headphone in 1988. Originally conceived as a pure monitoring headphone, it was also used as a high-class inflight headphone on the Concorde passenger aircraft. From there the headphone virtually conquered the DJ scene at supersonic speed and is still regarded today as the most popular DJ headphone with legendary status.
Shortly before the turn of the millennium, the Evolution microphone series (abbreviated with an "e") was launched in 1998. A year later the wireless microphone variant followed as the Evolution Wireless series (ew). Both series are still produced today and are used by the biggest stars in the world (including Drake, DJ Bobo, Peter Maffay, Kate Tempest, Jessie Ware, Ed Sheeran and many more). The success of the microphone range was fittingly celebrated in 2018 with the campaign "20 Years Evolution".
Since 2013 the company has been run in the third generation by the grandchildren Daniel and Andreas Sennheiser as an innovative dual leadership. Today Sennheiser employs more than 2,800 people worldwide and is represented in over 50 countries. In addition to professional audio equipment, the company also offers headphones and loudspeakers for the consumer market. Sennheiser always places great value on the highest sound quality and innovative design.
In the following years Sennheiser steadily expanded its product portfolio with further wireless microphones, in-ear monitoring systems and conference technology. Practical developments currently culminate in the Evolution Wireless Digital (EW-D) or the mobile radio systems for filmmakers and video professionals from the Evolution Wireless Digital Portable (EW-DP) series.
