The black Countryman E6X Omnidirectional Earset Mic, Low Gain with Detachable 1mm Cable and 2.5mm locking 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, omnidirectional 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. In addition, the earset comes with three protective caps with different high-frequency response characteristics that control the amount of crispness or sibilance (response at 15 kHz). This omnidirectional E6X earset's cable terminates to a 2.5mm locking connector for direct connection to Comtek M-216 and 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. This omnidirectional version includes three protective caps—+4 dB (bright), +8 dB (very bright) and +0 dB (flat)—that controls the amount of crispness or sibilance (response at 15 kHz.)

Easy adjustment keeps the mic in a comfortable position for rejecting unwanted sounds. The omnidirectional 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. will this hold Nikon D750 and can you use different heads?

A: Yes, it will support your D750 and you can attach many heads to this monopod.

Q: 2. Is this Benro sturdy enough for an A7lll to do a 30 sec long exposure?

A: The three-legged base on the bottom of the Benro A48FD Series 4 Aluminum Monopod with 3-Leg Locking Base, B&H # BEA48FD, is not designed to support the camera without assistance as is a tripod. It is designed for assistance in allowing you smooth panning and tilting motion while holding and manually moving the monopod. Due to its low support point, I would not leave the camera unattended mounted on the monopod, and as the base is low to the ground with the camera being high on the monopod, the image can still be affected by wind or platform movement. If you are shooting mildly long exposures, such as from 1/30 sec down to maybe 2-4 seconds (depending on how steady you are and if your camera/lens combination has image stabilization), the monopod may work for your usage needs, but for long exposures such as the 30 second exposure you list above, I would recommend a standard tripod for your usage needs.

Q: 3. How do you "flip the screw around?" This is unclear. I have tried but nothing is working.

A: Typically monopods have 2 methods for revealing the 1/4-20" screw; 1. The threaded collar is spring loaded and pushes down to reveal the 1/4-20" thread 2. You unscrew the top disc and then turn the stud around to access the 1/4-20" side of the stud.

Q: 4. Will this monopod work and be stable for astronomy binoculars 25-100 (10 lbs)?

A: Yes this monopod can hold a pair of binoculars that have a 1/4" screw mount.

Q: 5. Screw is much too large for my camera. What is the solution for that?

A: Flip the screw around, the screw has 2 size big & small, hope that help

Q: 6. Would this be a good stand to mount a teleprompter onto?

A: Yes this stand would be appropriate for a teleprompter.

Q: 7. Does this work with the Sony a7r iii?

A: Yes, very sturdy. I use right out of the box it pivots at the base so you can tilt and pivot for following your subject.

Q: 8. I bought this to use with my Nikon 5200 and once I got it I realized it doesn't fit on the monopod, the screw is bigger than the camera has. Is there any solution to this or should I just return?

A: The monopod should have been supplied with a special wrench tool which can be used to unlock the top plate of the monopod. By unlocking/removing the top plate, one can then remove the 3/8 -16 screw post and reverse it to find the 1/4 -20 threadpost.

Q: 9. Is it possible to just use the feets as a small tripod? i.e. does the tripod part have it's own screew?

A: You could, but only with a small point and shoot camera, or go pro, and or light body and lens, and no wind. It is steady but if you put a top heavy weight on top, it will fall over.

Q: 10. Two reviews point to the convenience of having the extra height of this stand so that the lowest extension knob is easy to reach to rotate the set up, which I understand. Don't the wheels of a roller stand make it possible to rotate the entire unit without the need to turn an extension knob? What am I missing? I'm about to purchase my first roller stand.

A: For finite adjustment, it is advantageous not to have to move the entire stand or to try and reach an elevated fixture
