The venerable Sennheiser MKH 416 is a compact pressure-gradient microphone with short interference tube, and highly immune to humidity due to its RF condenser design. Featuring high directivity, low self noise, high consonant articulation and feedback rejection it is the choice of professionals.
With any popular product, counterfeiters are willing to exploit that popularity and brand reputation by creating deceptive counterfeit versions to fool consumers. Unsuspecting consumers buy counterfeits from unauthorized dealers and e-commerce websites only to receive a poor performing and quality item with no warranty.
Sennheiser is working actively to combat brand and product counterfeiters. This is not just in the interest of customers, who rely on the top quality and service they expect from Sennheiser -- it also protects Sennheiser's company, brand, workers and their jobs.
The introduction of Sennheiser's security label on packaging and products in 2012 is an important milestone in this fight. Consumers can validate the authenticity of premium Sennheiser products on Sennheiser's website or by a smartphone app.
