Sennheiser EM 6000

Overview
The Digital 6000 receiver is a 19 inch 2-channel receiver with a large 244 MHz switching bandwidth. It features the legendary Long Range mode with a proprietary audio codec from the Digital 9000, ensuring maximum signal reliability. The receiver also has an Equidistant frequency grid for maximum channel density and simple setup, as well as 32 RF pre-selection filters for optimal suppression of interference signals.

The EM 6000 receiver offers a variety of outputs, including digital AES-3, transformer-balanced analog XLR and 6.3 mm jack outputs, and a headphone output. It can also be seamlessly integrated into existing digital or analog infrastructures. The receiver can be monitored and configured via the Wireless System Manager, and is compatible with UHF Sennheiser antenna systems.

About the Sennheiser EM 6000
Higher channel density with maximum signal reliability at the same time: Digital 6000 is intermodulation-free and assures through its equidistant frequency grid excellent spectral efficiency and the simplest frequency configuration– even in the toughest frequency environments where other systems already fail. Error correction and audio error masking recognise and fix problems long before they even become audible. When it comes to setup and the user interface, the EM 6000 stands out for clarity, relevance and short pathways.

Digital 6000 can be seamlessly integrated into existing digital or analog infrastructures. The EM 6000 receiver has a digital AES-3 output with word clock inputs and outputs, high-quality transformer-balanced analog XLR and 6.3 mm jack outputs as well as a 6.3 mm headphone output. The Dante™ version with an Audinate Brooklyn ll card additionally offers two Amphenol RJ-45 connectors for integrating the receiver into a Dante™ network, for redundant networks or daisy chain cabling.

Whether we’re talking about reducing information down to the really meaningful key values or smart menus on a high-contrast OLED display, every operating element is a result of practical experience and designed for practical use. All the vital parameters are summarised in one view. Important functions can be reached directly via home screens without long navigation paths. The auto-setup enables scanning and frequency distribution to all connected devices directly via the receiver; naturally Digital 6000 can also be monitored and configured via the Wireless System Manager (WSM).

The EM 6000 is compatible with UHF Sennheiser antenna systems.
