Detail 01
Dynamic capsule, no phantom power
Runs off any mic input. No 48V needed, so cheap mixers and passive splitters work fine.

Sennheisere 604 Dynamic Cardioid Instrument Microphone
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Clip-on dynamic cardioid instrument mic for close-miking sources on a stage or in a room without eating up a mic stand.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Miking drums where stands would crowd the kit
- Close-miking guitar or bass cabinets on a small stage
- Adding mics to a live rig without more stand hardware
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Vocals — it is built as an instrument mic
- Quiet, distant sources needing condenser sensitivity
- Anyone needing a mic that mounts on a normal stand clip
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Cardioid pattern
Rejects sound from behind. On a loud stage that means less bleed from the monitor or the next drum over.
Detail 03
40Hz–18kHz response
Low end reaches deep enough for floor toms and cabinets, with treble up top for stick attack.
Detail 04
2.3 in. long, 2.1 oz
Small and light enough to hang off a drum rim or cabinet edge without pulling itself out of position.
Detail 05
Clip-on mount, clip included
Attaches directly to the source. No boom stand, no counterweight, less clutter around the kit.
Detail 06
XLR connection
Standard balanced cable to any mixer or interface preamp. Long runs stay quiet.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No cable included — you supply the XLR
- 02No mic stand or stand adapter; the mount is the clip
- 03Case is included for transport and storage
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does the e 604 need phantom power?
No. It is a dynamic mic and works off a plain mic input. Leaving 48V on will not harm it, but it is not required.
02Can I use it for vocals?
It is designed as an instrument mic and mounts by clip rather than in a stand holder, so it is a poor fit for handheld or stand-mounted vocal use.
03What comes in the box?
The microphone, its clip, and a case. No cable and no stand.
04Will it work on a small mixer?
Yes. Any XLR mic input works, and no phantom power is needed.
