The beige CR-8S Cardioid Earworn Microphone from Point Source Audio is designed for high noise applications where more than one microphone is required such as for live performances and recordings. The cardioid pattern of the microphone will pick up sound from one direction, so it can be focused on the sounds of the person wearing the microphone. The unit features a 4mm diameter microphone element that can be positioned at the corner of the mouth to maintain an unobtrusive appearance.

The microphone features an unbreakable boom that can bend up to 360° and a flexible earhook that can be worn on either the left or the right ear. Alternatively you can utilize a dual-earset microphone clip to convert the earworn microphone so it can be worn on both ears for more support. The unit offers optimal gain amplification before feedback and can handle sounds with a maximum SPL of 135 dB. The microphone can connect to a wide range of wireless microphone transmitters using its interchangeable X-Connector system. This particular unit comes with an interchangeable Lemo-style 3-pin connector for Sennheiser SK and Zaxcom transmitters. The microphone also comes with a foam windscreen, a body clip, and a storage box.

[0.375 lb] Great headset mic. Sounds amazing! Very easy to adjust to each presenter. Get tons of compliments from presenters on how they normally don't like headsets but this one was nice. Definitely my go to headset from now on! 5

[7.1 x 6.1 x 1"] I had never even heard of the brand before seeing them on the B&H site. I gambled and purchased 3 of them for an event that was 5 days away. I received them 2 days before the event so I had them for dress rehearsal and the event itself. The mics worked flawlessly and performed better than some mics that I have that are double the price of these! Awesome first impression of Point Source mics!! These make me want to try some of those ultra flexible CO-7s. :) 5

[0.375 lb] We needed a lav mic that had a Cardioid pickup pattern, durability, with a natural true to source sound quality. This microphone delivered on all points. And the gain before feedback aspect was an enormous bonus. Omni directional pickup pattern s on a lav mic is what is usually suggested. But in a live situation with a 40,000 watt pa, cardioid is definitely the way to go. We are very pleased with the results and will be replacing all of our lav mics with this model. 5

[7.1 x 6.1 x 1"] Very helpful. They wanted to make sure that I was satisfied with the service I received. I was ! 5

[7.1 x 6.1 x 1"] We use them in a church for all the pastors. Being as how the economy is where it is we have had to cut cost. The CO-3 microphone is priced so we did not have to down grade quality for our sound system. You may want to use a foam wind screen the mike is rather hot. I would recomend this to any one needing this type of mike. 5

[0.375 lb] We have tried several different headsets like Countryman and THOR. This one beats them all! My pastor has some “wonky” frequencies in his voice that generate feedback in the mids. This one solved most of those issues without sacrificing the quality. The construction is beefy. No more bending the delicate wire to mold it to his face. Right out of the box, this fit like a glove and sounds amazing. I can’t recommend it enough. 5

Pudisgreat	12/08/2024
[0.375 lb] I bought this mic for my new Senn G3 wireless bodypack. I filmed an exercise video and the talent forgot they were even wearing it and I think it sounded great for the price. I was very happy with the size too...it is small and not very noticeable. .... It can only be used for the left ear as indicated. 5

[0.375 lb] We have only used this once, but our congregation definitely noticed the difference. Everything was projected clearly with no noticeable distortion. Small enough to be inocuous, and not uncomfortable. The only concern that we have is if someone borrows it and unknowingly tries to bend the boom; not sure how adversely it may be affected. 5
