The cocoa Countryman B2D Lavalier Mic, Low Gain, Detachable XLR Cablefrom Countryman B2D Lavalier Mic, Low Gain, Detachable XLR Cablefeatures a lightweight 0.18-ounce body that was designed to be discreetly mounted and can be used for miking news anchors, actors in a film or theater setting, lecturers in a school or house of worship type environment.

The B2D's tight hypercardioid pattern gives the mic an extra 6-10 dB of headroom compared to an omnidirectional lavalier mic, which means less problems with feedback, ambient noise, room rumble, and phase cancellations when using multiple microphones.

This version offers the lowest gain for powerful vocals such as in opera, which requires a higher overload level. In addition, the B2D lavalier is equipped with a detachable cable that terminates to a 3-Pin XLR connector for direct connection to Select 3-Pin XLR mixers, recorders, and other devices with an XLR connection.

With its small size and sensitivity options, the B2D can easily hide behind a shirt button. This makes it invisible for film work, theater, live shows, or any other application.

Natural vocal reproduction and a tight polar pattern make the B2D ideal for broadcast and is a dependable workhorse you can count on to perform night after night.

The isolation clips minimize clothing and vibration noise while allowing 360° of rotation for easy positioning of the microphone.

This microphone is tuned to a frequency response that is natural and intelligible at a wide range of distances from the mouth. It delivers wonderful sound quality on the chest (8-10" from the mouth) or towards the collar (3-4").

Low (blue band, -20 dB re W4) for operatic vocals

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I want to connect this to the LiveU Smartphone APP. Connect a Microphone and connect Headphones to listen to the IFB coming out of the APP. Do you think this is possible?

A: If the app would work with ear buds and its mic, it should work with this cable. Note: you must use a dynamic mic with this break-out cable. It does not pass phantom power for condensers. Use a dynamic with highest output possible. I recommend getting a TRRS extension cable to use with it especially if the iPhone is in a protective case.

Q: 2. Could this be used to take a phone call on a radio show? making connections through a audio board?

A: Mix-minus is key to avoiding a feedback loop too.

Q: 3. Will this work on the Sony transmitters like the D21? I know the polarity of the mic inputs is different to Sennheiser but not sure about the outputs.

A: It is not recommended to use the Cable Techniques Mini TRS to XLR Male Low-Profile Sennheiser Wireless Output Cable (18") with Sony receivers.

Q: 4. Does this cable fit to RØDELINK FILMMAKER receiver and transmitter output connection 3.5mm TRS Locking Jack Socket ?

A: This cable will work with the Rode Link receiver output.

Q: 5. Can I simply replace the black XLR cap on this cable with a color cap such as the CT-LPXCAP-R?

A: Yes, you can replace the color cap on the Cable Techniques Mini TRS to XLR Male Low-Profile Sennheiser Wireless Output Cable with a color cap such as the Cable Techniques CT-LPXCAP-R Color Cap for Low-Profile XLR Connector (Standard Size, Red).

Q: 6. Could this be used to monitor sound recordings if it was used with a DSLR camera 3.5 mm Mic input?

A: This cable is designed for use with smartphones that feature both headphone and mic on a single jack. Since a DSLR mic input only offers input and no headphone capability, this cable will not work.

Q: 7. What brand xlr connectors do these cable techniques fit?

A: This Cable Techniques Low-Profile Cap, Large, for Low Profile XLR Connectors, Outlet for up to 6.0mm OD Cable (White), is Compatible with Cable Techniques 3-pin and 5-pin connector types.

Q: 8. Is this cable balanced?

A: No, the Cable Techniques CT-MIN-LPUOX-18 is an unbalanced cable.

Q: 9. Can I hook this system on my smart tv so I ca use the you tube app for karaoke?

A: Yes, as long as your TV has a 3.5mm audio output you can connect the two.

Q: 10. Would this fit the Deity Connect dual receiver? Been trying to find right angle connectors like this with locking screws for my kit.

A: Yes it will.

[Plug-In Power] Going from a Shure WL93 to a Countryman E6 is like going from a Ford Pinto to a Audi A8. The Sound is fantastic. We work in an incredibly reflective, medium sized hall, and feedback is no longer an issue. The only issue that I've personally encountered is that we are still using Shure ULX wireless transmitters/recievers, and even with the gain on both maximized, it's still not quite enough. Having to then add gain on the board adds some unwanted background noise; however, I don't blame the mics for this issue, but instead our wireless system. Overall, Great mics. 5

[Plug-In Power] Use them for recording many events and amplification for live events. Only lament is that they are a bit fragile. 5

[Plug-In Power] The E6 is my earset of choice, since the quality of sound and comfort are priority for me and my presenters. NOTE: Since the earset is not part of B&H stock, the mics are drop-shipped directly from Countryman. I needed the mic within a week so I paid for 2-day shipping, since I was concerned when Countryman would process and ship the order. I was amazed to find out that they processed the order on the same day I placed it with B&H, and the mic arrived before the B&H order! Many thanks. 5

[Plug-In Power] I use these in a corporate speech and presentation environment. I have tried other knock-offs some of these knock offs have good sound quality, but sacrifice build quality, some are built ok, but sound like you are talking into a bowl with literally nothing from the lower mids down. Some look bad and sound bad. The Countryman E6 is the best performing and longest lasting ear-set microphone I have ever tried. They are really expensive, but in my opinion if you have the budget, they are worth it. 5

[Plug-In Power] This replaces a previous Countryman mic - fits well and even better with the brace that goes over the other ear. Great mic for speaking 5
