Default Plug-type X transmitter for AKG C535?

Is there an end-plug type of transmitter that would allow an AKG C535 to
work with Sennheiser's 300 and 500 series receivers?

Sennheiser makes both an SKP-100 G2 and an SKP-500 G2. Would either of
those work for you?

Looks like the SKP-500 would work; can't find info at the Sennheiser
site for the SKP-100 standalone. They only show it as bundled with
various systems. I'll poke around a little more.

It's for Patrick Ball, for whom I did SR a couple of weeks ago. He has a
couple of Sennheiser wireless rigs, but he dislikes the sound of the mic
bundled with one of them and uses a wired C535 instead. He was under the
impression that in order to use the C535 wirelessly he'd have to buy
into a very expensive AKG wireless rig, but the Sennheiser specs show
that the SKP-500 ought to work fine with the C535.

Thanks, Bob.

Do either supply phantom ? Cos the 535 needs it ( =12V I think).

The SKP-500 G2 does supply switchable 48V phantom power. For other
specs see:

It is REALLY IS real 48V phantom. Note that the battery life is reduced
when you have the phantom turned on, though.

Whenever manufacturers tell me they only provide substandard phantom voltages
because it's too difficult to do it correctly on a product with low power
requirements, I always bring up the Sennheiser butt plug.

Significantly reduced! A customer of mine opted to have a cable
installed instead of changing batteries daily.

Yes. Sennheiser makes a butt-plug transmitter that works fine. Also
Lectrosonics makes a universal transmitter that can be set up to talk
to the Sennheisers; it supports a bunch of different companding modes
and can interoperate with many different systems. It's more money,
though.
