Sennheiser MAT 133

The MAT 133 is a reliable and unobtrusive base for any XLR-3 gooseneck microphone. It installs easily on a table, takes up minimal space and delivers stable, high-quality audio for meeting rooms, conference spaces and presentation environments. Thanks to its clean, understated design, the tablestand blends into any interior without distracting participants.

The device is powered directly via 24–48 V phantom power, so it requires no additional adapters or external supplies. The XLR-3F input and XLR-3M output ensure a secure connection and seamless integration into any audio system. Its very low current consumption – only 1.9 mA – makes it ideal for large or permanent installations.

MAT 133 is compatible with most Sennheiser gooseneck microphones, including the MEG series and MZH necks, as well as ME 34, ME 35 and ME 36 capsules. This makes it a versatile solution for everyday business tasks – from meetings and video conferences to lectures and panel discussions.

Thanks to its durability, high-quality components and German manufacturing, the tablestand is built for long-term, stable operation in any environment.
