The light beige Countryman E6X Directional Earset Mic, Low Gain with Detachable 1mm Cable and TA4F Connector for Shure 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 TA4F connector for direct connection to Shure MXW1 and MXW1/0=-Z11 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. I own the 758. Any reason to buy the 858 if high-speed sync isn't a key feature for me?

A: The 758 is certainly a great meter. The 858 is MORE of a good thing. It measures in lower light. It has higher ISO input and lets you create your own ISO setting. It has a filter factor feature. Massively extended Cine/HD Cine display. 10 memory calibration. Flash duration measurement to get just the right amount of action stopping from studio flashes. A color display. HSS measurement (had to include that one). Radio triggering for PocketWizard, Elinchrom or Phottix Strato. faster operating touch screen control. And it does it all on 2 AA batteries.

Q: 2. The Phottix Transmitter Module says it works with the Strato 2 & Ares 2 protocols, does this mean it wont work with Odin speedlight receivers and the Indra set to the Odin receiver setting?

A: Yes, it won't.

Q: 3. What's the max power output and how this light compares with the Araman 200d @1m with the 55 reflector?

A: In comparing the RC 220B at 5600K, it would provide 84500 lux at 1m with its hyper reflector attached versus the Amaran 200d which provides 65,000 lux at the same distance and also with its hyper reflector attached.

Q: 4. I've herd about the 10 camera profiles and this is great but how film friendly is this meter.i would like to profile my slide film but theirs more than 10 that I shoot.is this possible or am I asking to much of sekonic

A: It is not possible to create profiles for film the way you do for digital cameras. With variables such as emulsion batches and processing, you cannot guarantee consistency, plus the images would have to be scanned, introducing another variable-the scanner.The best thing to do is shoot some test film based on the meters reading, then evaluate them for good exposure and how much over/under exposure the film tolerates. If you feel that some over or under exposure is needed, you may manually enter compensation data into the meter. Same with dynamic range.

Q: 5. Which one these Sekonic transmitters works with the Interfit S1 flash?

A: If you are asking for a light meter that has a built-in radio transmitter compatible for use with the wireless radio receiver built inside the Interfit S1 light fixture, unfortunately, there is no option designed by Sekonic. The Sekonic Speedmaster L-858D-U Light Meters are built with transmitters for PocketWizard, Godox, Broncolor, Elinchrom, and Phottix wireless radio systems. As they do not manufacture an option for use with Interfit strobes, I would instead recommend purchasing the Sekonic L-858D-U Speedmaster Light Meter Kit with Transmitter Module for PocketWizard, B&H # SEL858DUSMPW, along with a PocketWizard transceiver such as the PocketWizard PlusX Transceiver, B&H # WIPWPX, for your usage needs.

Q: 6. Will the RT Module-32 Pocketwizard transmitter from the Sekonic L-608 work as a transmitter for the L-858D-U?

A: Yes.

Q: 7. Are there are plans to sell with a gold mount adapter?

A: The SmallRig V-Mount Battery Plate, B&H # SM3676 • MFR # 3676, is currently the only battery plate listed by SmallRig as compatible for use with the SmallRig RC 220B COB Bi-Color LED Video Light (2700-6500K). As of the time/date of this reply, SmallRig does not have a Gold-Mount adapter option designed for use with this light fixture.

Q: 8. Why is the Sekonic Broncolor Transmitter Module a recommended accessory when it comes with the kit?

A: While not necessary since this SKU comes with the Broncolor transmitter module, we've listed it under the recommended accessories so customer with just the light meter would be able to quickly find the necessary module for Broncolor's radio triggering protocol if they were looking to "upgrade", per se.

Q: 9. What is the difference between L 858 d-u and L 858 d?

A: L-858D-U is the US version, the d-u is the international version and the difference would be in the frequency at which they opperate.

Q: 10. Does the meter wirelessly transmit to Westcott FJ400 Strobes?

A: No, Sekonic Speedmaster L-858D-U Light Meter only comes with the module to connect and control Broncolor, Godox, Elinchrom and Phottix. You will need Westcott triggers and Sekonic Speedmaster L-858D-U Light Meter for your Westcott FJ400 Strobes
