The black Countryman E6X Directional Earset Mic, Low Gain with Detachable 1mm Cable and 3.5mm Connector for Comtek Wireless Transmitters is 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 3.5mm connector for direct connection to Comtek M-72 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.

Q: 9. Will this work with the 190xpro3?

A: If you have this tripod Manfrotto MT190CXPRO4 Carbon Fiber Tripod it is not compatible with that adapter.The tripod's center column can be positioned horizontally. This will allow you to lower the legs to very low to the ground.

Q: 10. Will this fit the Manfrotto 290 xtra aluminum tripod? The center columns on the 290 and 190 appear the same but no one will let me try the fit. Have queried Manfrotto and they responded that there was not a short center column for the 290 planned.

A: The center column on the 290 series and the 190 are the same diameter, so this will fit the 290 Xtra. Since the hole in the center of the 290 Xtra is angled, it would be a good idea to use the rubber gasket from the existing center column when mounting with this smaller piece. I just tried it and it works.
