I bought this mic for our local church, primarily as a speaking mic.
It was a a toss up between this and Shure, but because I'm using E935's for singing and absolutely love it, decided to go for Sennheiser.
Straight out of the box, setup was super easy. Mic and receiver synced up on channel 11 and honestly, there is nothing else to do. Reception is crystal clear, mic is what you've come to expect from Sennheiser - clear, loud and easy to EQ. Microphone feels well made and sturdy as well. It has an easy to operate ON/OFF switch at the lower end of the mic that is well hidden so you don't accidentally switch it off! There is also another switch to mute the mic on the more obvious, accessible part of the mic. All I can say is that I haven't come across anything that I don't like yet. If I was going to be picky, it doesn't come with a case - a nice case like more expensive models would be nice!
