Product studySennheiser e 906 Dynamic Guitar Amp Microphone

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Micing a guitar cab without a stand in front of it
  • Tight stages where a mic stand takes up floor space
  • Studio amp tracking alongside a second mic

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Handheld vocal use — the flat body is not a handheld shape
  • Anyone needing a general-purpose mic for many sources
  • Recording quiet acoustic sources at a distance

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 01

Flat, side-address body

Hangs from its own cable over the front of a cab. No stand needed at the amp.

Detail 02

Supercardioid pattern

Tighter pickup than cardioid. Rejects more from the sides, so it isolates one cab on a loud stage.

Detail 03

40Hz–18kHz response

Extends higher than most vocal dynamics, so cabinet top end and pick attack come through.

Detail 04

2.2 mV/Pa sensitivity

Moderate output for a dynamic. Expect to add preamp gain compared to a condenser.

Detail 05

350 ohm impedance, 1,000 ohm minimum load

Standard for a dynamic. Works into any mic preamp with an XLR input.

Detail 06

1 oz weight

Light enough to hang off the cable without pulling the cab or sagging out of position.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01No XLR cable included
  2. 02No mic stand included, though the design lets you skip one
  3. 03Position on the cone changes the tone more than any EQ setting

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does this need a mic stand?

No. It is built to hang from its XLR cable over the front of a guitar cabinet. A stand still works if you prefer one.

02Can I use it on vocals?

It is shaped and voiced for guitar cabinets. The flat side-address body does not work handheld.

03Does it need phantom power?

No. It is a dynamic mic and runs off any XLR preamp input without 48V.

04Where do I aim it on the speaker?

Center of the cone is brightest, edge is darker. Move it across the cone until the tone sits where you want it.
