It is designed for speech reinforcement in presentations, church liturgy, lecturing, and other applications where the speaker requires a hands-free microphone solution.

The kit features an omnidirectional microphone in a low-profile headset that is worn on the left ear. A reversible dual-ear mic clip is included that provides more secure positioning, if desired, and allows the mic to be worn on the left or the right ear. The omnidirectional polar pattern offers a forgiving 360 degree pickup pattern.

Q: 1. Dumb question, would this work if I plugged this into an average aux port?

A: Whether you are referencing an Aux In port or an Aux Out port it will not work because mic signal is much lowerl than line level signal like from a headphone output for example. Because of that, the ESM-1-MN would only be compatible with a microphone input.

Q: 2. Can this mic be used interchangeably with various transmitter brands?

A: Yes, it can! Each mic comes with one X-Connector. Additional X-Connectors for other wireless brands can be purchased separately.

Q: 10. Could this be used with a Rode VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS female to XLR male adapter with phantom power converter to use it as a wired mic?

A: Yes, the Polsen ESM-1-35H Single-Sided Earset Microphone for Sennheiser Transmitters (B&H # POESM135H) can be used with the RODE VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter (B&H # ROVXLRP) in order to connect it to a wired XLR microphone input. As another option, you could use the similar Polsen ESM-1-MN Single-Sided Earset Microphone for Recorders and Wireless Transmitters (B&H # POESM1MN) for connection to a standard 3.5mm TRS mic input with plug-in power. Either version of the earset mic can be used with the VXLR+ adapter for connection to an XLR mic input. The difference between the two models is that the version for Sennheiser transmitters has a locking 3.5mm connector and the version for recorders has a standard non-locking 3.5mm connector.
