The Sennheiser SK 6000 BK A5-A8 is a professional-grade bodypack transmitter, compatible with the brand's lavalier and headset microphones. Thanks to its equidistant frequency grid technology, the SK 6000 BK A5-A8 system is intermodulation-free and ensures exceptional signal stability even in radio-wave dense environments. Additionally, the transmitter features a "Link Density" (LD) mode along with the efficient SePAC audio codec found on the legendary Digital 9000 series. The SeDAC codec guarantees flawless sound quality and optimal dynamics.
The SK 6000 BK A5-A8’s intermodulation-free design operates flawlessly using equidistant frequency grids. This increased spectral efficiency allows maximum channel density, and achieves outstanding transmission quality. Operating in the frequency range between 470MHz and 558MHz, providing an 88MHz bandwidth, the SK 6000 BK A5-A8 adheres to AES-256 and Digital 9000 standards for signal encoding. The "Link Density" (LD) mode, coupled with the efficient SePAC audio codec, enables the creation of up to five channels per MHz of bandwidth. Additionally, the optional BA 61 lithium-ion battery ensures a runtime of up to 6.5 hours, and the bodypack transmitter can alternatively be equipped with the B 61 battery.
Pocket transmitters such as the Sennheiser SK 6000 BK A5-A8 are predominantly used in live settings and require a housing that meets specific requirements in terms of durability and resistance in order to protect the internal electronics effectively. The SK 6000 BK A5-A8 features a special magnesium shell that is remarkably tough while remaining light in weight. This design ensures that the entire transmitter system is well-protected without imposing any excessive weight at the waist, allowing users the freedom to move freely on stage. Professional vocalists, speakers, and presenters with the highest demands will find the SK 6000 BK A5-A8 to be a valuable asset, reliable at all times during their performances.
In June 1945, Prof. Fritz Sennheiser founded the Wennebostel Laboratory, which initially produced measuring equipment. Commissioned by Siemens in 1945, the young company developed the MD-1 microphone, which was launched in 1946. After the development of further microphones, the company was renamed Sennheiser Electronic in 1958. Two years later, Sennheiser introduced the MD 421 dynamic microphone, which is still in production today and still held in high esteem by many sound engineers. Further groundbreaking developments, such as the HD 414 headphones and the MD 441 microphone classic, hugely enhanced the company’s international reputation, eventually making Sennheiser one of the leading manufacturers of microphone and headphone systems in the world.
The sturdy SK 6000 BK A5-A8 transmitter is compatible with a number of lavalier microphones (MKE 1, MKE 2, and MKE 40) and microphone headsets (HSP 2, HSP 4, and SL Headmic) manufactured by both Sennheiser and Neumann. Additionally, it can serve as a high-quality transmitter for guitars and basses. The Sennheiser SK 6000 BK A5-A8 is also compatible with receivers such as the EM 6000 and EK 6042 in the Digital-6000 series as well as with the EM 9046 multi-channel receiver in "Long Range" (LR) mode.
