The Sennheiser e 902 is a dynamic cardioid microphone purpose-built for kick drums, bass guitar amplifiers, and other low-frequency sources. Rather than aiming for strict neutrality, the e 902 was tuned with specific dips around 200Hz and 700Hz to eliminate the muddy resonances that accumulate inside bass drums, resulting in a tight, dry low end and a clearly defined attack straight from the source without EQ. A very fast transient response preserves the initial beater strike and note articulation even at high SPLs, and a hum-compensating coil paired with a shock-mounted capsule keeps the noise floor clean in demanding live environments. The integral stand mount and rugged reinforced metal housing are built for the realities of regular setup and teardown on tour. Assembled in Europe and backed by a 2-year warranty (10-year in the USA), the e 902 is an equally capable choice for floor toms and any other instrument where depth, punch, and aggressive attack are the goal.

• Bass-optimized frequency response — deliberately tuned dips at 200Hz and 700Hz eliminate muddy resonances inside the kick drum; delivers tight, punchy low end and defined attack without additional EQ
• Placement-sensitive tonal character — positioned deep inside the kick for maximum attack and dry punch; at the resonant head for warmer, more voluminous low end; between the two for a balanced, full tone
• Very fast transient response — captures the initial beater strike and note articulation cleanly; well-suited for floor toms alongside kick drum applications
• High SPL handling — handles the loudest kick drums and bass amplifiers without distortion
• Hum compensating coil — rejects electromagnetic interference for noise-free performance in venues with dense stage lighting and power infrastructure
• Shock-mounted capsule — mechanically isolates the capsule from stand and handling vibration
• Integral stand mount — built-in mount for stable, direct positioning without a separate clip
• Rugged reinforced metal housing — built for touring; assembled in Europe
• 2-year warranty — 10-year warranty in the USA
