The SL Headmic 1 is an extremely unobtrusive and comfortable-to-use headworn microphone designed for professionals who demand both discretion and high-quality sound. Featuring the proven omni-directional MKE 1 capsule, this mic delivers natural voice pickup with minimal off-axis coloration, making it ideal for performers, speakers, lecturers, and presenters who move naturally on stage or in front of a camera. The adjustable neckband ensures a secure, personalized fit for a wide range of head shapes and sizes, while the extremely lightweight yet robust metal frame minimizes fatigue during long sessions. With its sleek silver finish, the Headmic SL blends seamlessly with wardrobe and lighting on set, broadcast studios, or corporate environments. Built to withstand daily use, it provides reliable performance across a variety of environments—from intimate classroom recordings to large-scale presentations—so you can focus on delivering your message rather than worrying about gear.

  • Ultra-lightweight and comfortable: At approximately 7 g, the Headmic SL sits almost invisibly on the head, distributing weight evenly to reduce fatigue during long rehearsals, conferences, or live performances. The slim profile minimizes pressure points on the ears and scalp, allowing you to wear it for hours without irritation. The lightweight construction also helps keep clothing and hair from snagging, so performers can move freely without adjusting gear mid-performance.
  • Omni-directional MKE 1 capsule: The capsule delivers a natural, uncolored sound by capturing audio from all directions within its pickup area. This broad acceptance makes the mic forgiving of minor head movement and position changes, ensuring clear speech even if the speaker looks away briefly or shifts slightly during a presentation or performance. The result is consistent intelligibility and reduced need for precise mic placement.
  • Adjustable neckband: Designed for universal fit, the neckband adjusts to accommodate a wide range of head sizes and shapes. The ergonomic design holds the microphone at the optimal distance from the mouth, while the flexible construction allows easy micro-adjustments during setup or live use. This feature is particularly beneficial for multi-person productions or shared-stage setups where quick, repeatable fitting matters.
  • Robust metal frame: The Headmic SL combines a durable metal frame with a lightweight design, delivering long-term reliability in travel-heavy workflows and demanding environments. The sturdy build resists daily wear and tear from frequent setup and breakdown, ensuring consistent performance even with regular use on busy stages, in studios, or during lengthy lectures.
  • Discrete and professional appearance: The low-profile silhouette and silver finish help the mic stay out of the spotlight while remaining easy to cue and deploy in front of cameras and audiences. Its understated look is ideal for broadcast, theatre, corporate events, and educational settings where a clean, professional appearance matters as much as sound quality.

How to install Sennheiser Headmic SL Headmic 1 -4 SB -NC Microphone

To install the Headmic SL, begin by placing the neckband behind the ears with the crown resting lightly on the top of the head. Position the MKE 1 capsule at a comfortable distance from the mouth—typically 1–2 fingers away—to ensure clear articulation while minimizing wind or breath noise. Route the cable along the back of the neck and secure it with the appropriate clip or attachment for your gear, keeping the cable free from pinching or excessive tension.

Next, connect the microphone to your audio chain. If you’re pairing with a wireless transmitter, attach the mic lead to the transmitter input and verify that the receiver is properly synced with your mixer or recording device. Ensure the transmitter’s power is on and the gain staging on your console is set to avoid distortion during loud passages. For camera or stage setups, test the signal path from microphone to mic input, monitor the hearing feedback in your headphones, and adjust levels so the voice remains clear without clipping.

With the mic in place, check fit and stability. The adjustable neckband should stay in place during movement, while the capsule should remain angled toward the mouth. If you notice movement or rubbing, gently reposition the neckband or bend the frame slightly to improve alignment. During long shoots or performances, periodically recheck the fit to prevent microphonic noise caused by clothing or hair rubbing against the capsule or cable.

Care and maintenance are simple. After use, wipe the mic housing with a soft, dry cloth and store it in a protective case to prevent damage to the capsule and cable. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or excessive moisture, and respect the microphone’s care instructions to preserve its acoustic properties and structural integrity.

Great book! Little known knowledge shared by a true master!
Format: Paperback
The book arrived on time and in great shape. I had just attended an in person conference by the writer of this book, Donna Eden, and left the conference feeling so much more empowered that I had to know more. Through personal health challenges that left her in constant pain and bedridden in her twenties, and doctors unsure how to help her, Donna Eden who is now in her seventies or eighties, became her own guru!! Utilizing different natural ways of healing and learning all about energy medicine she developed her own personal brand of energy medicine. She is healthy and thriving over 5 decades later. Loaded with information that will change your life and your health in this book she shares with you the knowledge and the energy medicine exercises so you can help yourself. I now own all her books!

Good Book, Very Practical
Format: Paperback
This is a very interesting read and has some great exercises in it. I really enjoyed the book. Then I went on-line and watched a couple videos of Donna Eden speaking, and I have to say she seems like a New Age looney tune, all wide eyes, soft voice and gigantic fake smiles. Itʻs a shame, really, because energy medicine is an important field and having spaced out people representing it gives it a bad name and makes it seem less valid. However, like I said, it is a good book and worth reading. Few books about the energy body actually give exercises on how to work with it yourself, so this gets over the hurdle of other books like Barbara Brennanʻs Hands of Light where if you want to learn the techniques you have to pay a lot of money and go in person to a seminar.

Book has tons of practical information and interesting stories
Format: Paperback
I have been following Mantak Chia's inner smile book and trying to understand the 5 elements theory for a long time. Donna has not only explained how to use it in detail and but more about Chinese medicine in a way that is simple. There is a large bibliography she draws from as well as her own papers. She has combined kinesiology, her special talents, and her personal insights to create a powerful healing book. I am a layman who is trying to heal herself and I have stopped my prescribed Chinese herbs after a few days since implementing her program. It's a wholistic book written with as much information as she can impart with the feeling that she is trying to give you as much information as she can because she cares that you implement her exercises correctly. Mantak Chia said to just try it. Donna Eden tries to explain the functions but if you don't believe her reasoning or her whyfores, just try it. It's faster and easier and more gratifying than any other system I have used. She is top of the class in healing arts. I didn't find this book until a month ago, where I was incontinent, depressed, headachy, and constantly low on energy. Thanks to her book I will save a lot of money on diapers, herbs, pharmaceuticals. My burning bladder noninfections are a thing of the past. My 8 year search is over, no more empty answers.
