Sennheiser MZE 8060 Extension Tube 60 cm

The Sennheiser MZE 8060 Extension Tube 60 cm is a purpose-built accessory designed to optimize microphone placement and signal integrity for the MZE 8060 system. Specifically engineered to connect the microphone head at the front to the XLR module at the end, this 60 cm extension tube provides flexible reach while preserving the clean, low-noise audio path essential for professional live sound, broadcast, and studio environments. With a robust, purpose-made design, it minimizes signal degradation and cable clutter, so you can position the mic precisely where you need it without compromising tone or dynamics. Whether you’re on stage, in a studio booth, or broadcasting from a control room, this extension tube helps you achieve consistent pickup patterns, stable positioning, and a streamlined rig that looks as professional as it sounds. Its balanced construction balances durability with light weight, making it a reliable companion for frequent setup and teardown, long sessions, and demanding touring schedules. By choosing the MZE 8060 Extension Tube, you invest in a dedicated component that respects the integrity of the Sennheiser ecosystem while offering the practical reach essential for modern microphone techniques.

• Seamless signal path: The extension tube is designed to carry the audio signal directly from the microphone head to the rear XLR module, reducing the risk of signal loss or interference. This means clearer transients, better dynamic response, and a more natural overall tonal balance, even when the mic is positioned at a distance. The snug fit between the head and the XLR end minimizes micro-movements that can introduce noise, so performances stay pristine from rehearsal through final take.
• Optimal reach and positioning: At 60 cm, the extension provides a flexible balance between reach and manageability. It enables overhead or off-axis placement without pulling the main mic body into view, preserving a clean stage picture while maintaining direct audio capture. This is ideal for applications where the performer needs room to breathe, while the mic remains within optimal proximity for intelligible intelligibility and consistent pickup across a range of vocal or instrument dynamics.
• Rugged construction for touring and daily use: Built to withstand the physical demands of live events and studio work, this extension tube offers a sturdy, durable chassis that resists bending, vibration, and minor impacts. The rigid build helps maintain alignment between the microphone head and XLR module, ensuring repeatable performance across many shows, shoots, and broadcasts. Its resilience supports long-term reliability in demanding environments.
• Simple integration with the Sennheiser MZE 8060 ecosystem: The extension tube plugs into the existing MZE 8060 configuration with a straightforward, tool-free connection. This makes setup and teardown faster, reduces downtime between performances, and allows engineers to quickly reconfigure miking layouts on the fly. The design preserves the sleek profile of the system, so you can achieve professional aesthetics without sacrificing sound quality.
• Professional-grade compatibility and signal integrity: Specifically engineered to complement Sennheiser MZE 8060 components, the extension tube maintains compatibility with standard connectors and signal paths used in live and studio workflows. This ensures consistent impedance, shielding, and signal integrity across the entire microphone chain, helping engineers reproduce the artist’s intended tone with confidence at each gig or session.
