Since I started recording audio as a trainee sound recordist back in the late 80s, the brand Sennheiser has been synonymous with microphones and headphones. Over the years, I’ve encountered Sennheiser mics in various sound studios and used Sennheiser headphones to monitor audio on location video shoots. This ubiquitous presence is unsurprising as this German company has been designing high-quality audio equipment for eight decades. In a market currently awash with affordable consumer wireless microphone kits, I was pleased to be offered Sennheiser’s own consumer wireless mic kit to test - the Sennheiser Profile Wireless.
In late 2024, Sennheiser released the Profile 2-Channel kit – a wireless mic kit that shipped with two mics and a charging bar. In May 2025, they released the trimmed-down (and therefore more affordable) solo version of the kit - the Profile Wireless 1-Channel kit. This single mic kit targets solo shooters who don’t require two microphones - perfect for content creators (and product reviewers such as myself!). The Profile Wireless 1-Channel kit lacks the charging bar that ships with the Profile Wireless 2, but you can charge the Wireless's transmitter and receiver independently by using the supplied USB-C to USB-C cable.
