Dale, Yes, it has a standard connector. Jill

Hmm, looking at this I see I was ambiguous: These transmitters use balanced wires to connect to the PA. The Senheiser uses a TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) type connector. And, the receiver needs power. It’s the power wire that wears out. The Sennheiser came with wall-wart transformer and a connector that slides in a slot. The original had the ancillary threaded part, which has been replaced with a less expensive, generic wall-wart that just pushes into the slot. A web-search yields the name: coaxial power connector. Picture from wiki [https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7a/Hohlstecker_und_H…] Ones that have the threaded part are called “Locking Coaxial Power Connectors: [Image result for locking coaxial power connector image] Again, I’ve replaced both the locking power connector with a non-locking one, and the locking phone plug of the Sennheiser mic—that goes into the transmitter—with a standard mini-phone plug with no problems. ~erik hoffman Oakland, ca From: Callers [mailto:callers-bounces@lists.sharedweight.net] On Behalf Of Erik Hoffman via Callers Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2016 12:34 AM To: callers(a)lists.sharedweight.net Subject: Re: [Callers] headset mics I’ve had a number of wireless mics. Many of them come with a simple connector plug, with and additional feature that holds the plug on by screwing the wire to the receiver. When they break—and they do break in a life of plug in, unplug, transport to next gig—I replace them with cheap ones from our local electronics shop (Al Lasher’s on University Ave., in Berkeley CA). You don’t need the screw on tight feature, just one with the same size connector. And I’ve used these at camps, gigs, everywhere, no problem. Of course, you can pay a bit more and replace them from Sennheiser or Shure… ~erik hoffman Oakland, ca From: Callers [mailto:callers-bounces@lists.sharedweight.net] On Behalf Of JillAllen via Callers Sent: Wednesday, September 7, 2016 7:12 PM To: Dale Wilson <dale.wilson@gmail.com<mailto:dale.wilson@gmail.com>> Cc: callers@lists.sharedweight.net<mailto:callers@lists.sharedweight.net> Subject: Re: [Callers] headset mics Dale, Yes, it has a standard connector.

It's nice that mine stays plugged in, but it was a real pain when a wire broke in the cable and I had to do major surgery rather than simply replacing it with a standard connector.

Also, I recently purchased a "Compact Powered PA System" by the name of SRM 150. It weighs maybe 10 pounds, I can lift it with one finger, and the one speaker sounds great and fills a big room.
