The black Countryman E6X Directional Earset Mic, Low Gain, TA4F Connectoris a versatile blend of the E6 and the E6i earset that features a springy, thin earpiece and a flexible boom and is suitable for use when a few people will be using the same mic.

The E6X earset can be used on either ear for capturing audio and rejecting unwanted sound, feedback, or surrounding noise from stage monitors or nearby speakers in houses of worship, theater, and outdoor vocal and speech applications.

The low-profile, directional E6X earset virtually disappears against the skin, so performers will forget they're wearing a mic. This version offers the lowest gain for the most powerful vocals that require the highest overload. Additionally, the earset comes with two pattern-changeable protective caps for maximum isolation and gain before feedback. This directional E6X earset's cable terminates to a TA4F connector for direct connection to Anchor Audio WB-6000, WB-6400, and WB-8000 wireless bodypack transmitters.

The Countryman earsets are very small, lightweight, and the least visible headworn microphones.

The E6 Flex or E6X offers a versatile blend of the E6 and the E6i. With a springy, thin earpiece and a flexible boom, the E6 Flex is secure on the ear and fast to fit without compromising true invisibility and sound.

The E6X's stainless steel boom is tough and can be bent and re-bent to fit different performers. It is highly resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps. The earset should always have a protective cap in place to keep sweat, makeup, and other foreign material out of the microphone.

The E6X earset's flexible boom is easily shaped right on the performer's face. Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. The directional earset protective caps adjust the pattern from cardioid to hypercardioid.

Easy adjustment keeps the mic in a comfortable position for rejecting unwanted sounds. The directional E6X earset provides more isolation and is suitable for situations where there are loud monitors, extreme feedback, or environmental noise.

The included removable, quick-swap cable detaches from the actual earset, making it completely replaceable in the event of a short or break. The replaceable cable design makes upgrading wireless microphone systems easy as they are available in a wide selection of connections to accommodate most wireless transmitters.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. how many microphones can connect too this ?

A: This antenna can receive signal from any number of active transmitters within range (based on the antenna's position and gain settings) that are transmitting between 470698 MHz. To clarify, this item's purpose in your wireless setup is to act as an extension of your receivers which, when properly placed and configured according to your application, can improve your transmitter(s) signal reception. However, it should be noted that your receivers are the devices that are actually connecting (or syncing) with your transmitters to interpret the captured signal of each active wireless microphone or bodypack. Thus, any limitations in number of transmitters you are able to use simultaneously would be based on the capabilities and coordination of your receivers rather than the number or type of antennas you are using.

Q: 4. I did not realize that this microphone was designed to be used on a phone with the headphone jack on the opposite end of the phone from the camera. Mine has both on the same end. Is there another microphone or a work around that you recommend using in this situation?

A: This mic is designed to be plugged into the headphone jack of the phone on either side of the camera. The mic provides a headphone output on the back of the unit for quick playback after recording. There's no need to have the mic on a specific side of the phone.

Q: 5. Can I split the RF output of this to 2 receivers using a BNC-TEE, or do I need an RF splitter?

A: You would be able to accomplish this using the UA221. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1335931-REG/shure_ua221_rsma_reverse_sma_passive_antenna.html

Q: 6. Can I use this with my smartphone (galaxy s5) as a hands free device for the car? The phone is already paired with a fm Bluetooth device.

A: This mic plugs into the earphone jack, and once plugged in I would expect to get no sound from the phone as the phone will think that you are using earphones. I would suggest either asking Rode or you phone provider.

Q: 7. Are these made for permanent outdoor use?

A: No, the Shure UA874 Active Directional Antenna is not designed or rated to be installed outdoors. Shure recommends an antenna such as the Winegard Elite 7550 Amplified Outdoor/Attic HDTV Antenna (BH #WIWE7550A) as an alternative for use in permanent outdoor situations: https://bit.ly/3HWHJOA

Q: 8. I just bought a Letv Le1 pro x800, it's the second phone of the company. It works on EUI, an operative system whose base is Android. Does anyone see any reasons why the mic wouldn't be working on this phone??

A: Unfortunately without testing the units we would be unable to confirm, however from specs available, the unit features a TRRS jack for headphone/mic and should work properly.

A: Scott, stay away from B&H photo

Q: 10. I understand the VideoMic Me is designed for devices where the camera is on the opposite side from the audio input jack. I have a Galaxy S5 (which has them on the same side) - would it be possible to make it work if (hypothetically) I could find a short TRRS extension cable?

A: By using a cable you will still be feeding audio into your smartphone but keep in mind the TRRS jack on the VideoMic Me is also the physical connection point that holds the mic onto the phone.
