The cocoa Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic for Sony Recordersfrom Countryman B6 Omni Lavalier Mic for Sony Recordersis a very small lav microphone measuring one tenth of an inch in diameter with changeable protective caps, which provide moisture resistance and color options. The mic can be used to capture audio for theater, broadcast, churches, and general lavalier applications.

Built with a low handling noise and rugged construction, the B6 lavalier microphone can be easily hidden in hair or on costumes, or taped to a performer's face. The aramid cable and ultra-thin diaphragm deliver a natural sound while its tiny size makes the B6 easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection. The B6's cable terminates to a 3.5mm locking connector for direct connection to a Sony PCM-M10 or PCM-D50 audio recorder (audio on left channel).

Additionally, swappable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or match other microphones. The B6 microphone is resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps. These caps can be quickly removed for cleaning or replacement.

Looks great when you want to see it, virtually disappears when you don't. The B6 is easily hidden in hair or on costumes, with five colors to match clothing, hair, and skin tones. Use a felt tip marker to color the white caps for near-perfect concealability. Never suffer the hassle and degraded sound quality of under-clothing miking again.

The B6 is resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps, and works well in hair or on the body. The protective caps are easily removed for cleaning or replacement, and the aramid-reinforced cable gives it world-class survivability.

The B6 provides high-quality audio with low distortion at SPL up to 140 dB on 48V phantom power. The aramid cable and thin diaphragm combine to offer low handling noise. The flat frequency response accurately captures voice or instruments, and the small size makes the B6 easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection.

Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. Versions are available for different speaking or singing styles, with high overload capability for recording instruments.

Very low, mic near user's mouth.

[1 to 2 V] Great sounding and incredibly invisible lav. I use it in docs for interviews or in narrative film for actors with tiny voices and wide shots where you can't get the boom close in. It is tiny, easy to hide and sounds quite good, especially combined with a pro wireless system like a Lectro. 5

[Cocoa] I am a pastor and I have used different types of wireless mics; but I must say that I am totally sold on this system. Clear crisp sound. Great!! 5

[Cocoa] I'm an independent video producer, and this mic has been a terrific addition to my kit. It's incredibly easy to hide and has great quality sound. I use it with my Zoom (but make sure Phantom Power is on, since the mic doesn't come with it's own power source!), and it's a great set-up. 5

[Cocoa] Great for hiding, especially with white or light colored shirts. Even when used visibly with a clip, it has a neat look. Sound quality is always good with the B6, especially in such a small package. Make sure you order the correct connector; no return, special order items are no fun tracking down refund/exchange options from Countryman. I wish Countryman made a nicer, more discrete mic clip. The cheap plastic ones are, well, plasticy and awkward looking. Can't find third-party clip for a cable that thin. Also, windscreen is off-white, not pure white. Still worthy of a five star rating. I often poke the mic through the button hole of a shirt, letting it stick out a little to avoid rustling. Most buttons are white so it's hardly visible at all. A little tape on the inside of the shirt and great audio is on the way. 5
