The Countryman E6s Omnidirectional Microphone is a miniature earset microphone for virtually invisible operation. The compact size and placement just in front of the ear make this microphone particularly well-suited for intimate theater and broadcast applications, or any use where low mic visibility is a key factor.

The omnidirectional pickup pattern provides a generous and forgiving pickup area around the perimeter of the capsule, while the stainless steel construction stands up to daily use, makeup, and sweat. The mic also comes with 3 different interchangeable caps that let you choose between a flat, bright, or very bright frequency response.

This version of the E6s is tan and is hardwired with a 1mm diameter cable. It has a standard 3-pin XLR male connector for connection to professional sound systems.

Q: 1. The 3 different kinds of Hirose connection are selectable (DS, SO, and SY), and it says "see Description", yet the Description says nothing about these designations. Could you clarify?

A: Sorry for the confusion. Once you select a given connector, the second paragraph in the "overview section" will specify which transmitters they are compatible with. SN = Sony WRT-805A and UWP Series Transmitters DS = Sony DWT-B01 SO = Sony WRT-28, WRT-820A, or WRT-860A SY = Sony WRT-8B, WRT-420, or WRT-822B I hope this helps

A: Strong so far. Our new Senior Pastor has been using this brand for years and speaks very highly of it...hence buying new one for him. I would not recommend for kids being kids.

Company stands behind their product!
