The beige H6 Omnidirectional Headset with Detachable Cable and 3.5mm Locking Connector for Senal Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a low-profile headset microphone that combines the transparent sounding E6 Earset with a comfortable, lightweight, and adjustable headframe. Weighing less than one-tenth ounce, it can be used as a water- and wind-resistant mic for capturing audio in houses of worship, theater, and outdoor vocal and speech applications.

The low-profile, omnidirectional H6 Headset virtually disappears against the skin, so performers forget they're wearing a mic. Three sensitivity options cover general speaking to extremely powerful vocals, and four color options allow you to match the H6 to your skin tone for minimum visibility. The H6 features a sealed connector with moisture resistance, a slim cable, and protective caps (+0, +4, and +8 dB) to adjust the frequency response. It is also available as a directional microphone with cardioid and hypercardioid caps.

This omnidirectional H6 Headset's cable terminates to a 3.5mm locking connector for direct connection to a Senal AWS-2000 wireless bodypack transmitter.

Both earloops slide in and out to achieve a comfortable and secure fit on the head.

The boom slides independently of the earloops to place the mic right at the mouth.

The tiny 0.1" diameter capsule virtually disappears when worn and delivers natural audio quality. The directional version provides warmth and extreme isolation, while the omni version has a natural response with a minimum of wind or handling noise.

An H6 snap-on 1.2mm diameter replacement cable installs in seconds. It provides a tight seal against moisture, is rugged, and available for almost any wireless transmitter or for XLR inputs with phantom power.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Would this work with a DR-10L or any 3.5mm input on something like a mirrorless camera or iPhone (with connector)?

A: Yes, the Samson DE60x Unidirectional Miniature Headset Microphone for Wireless Transmitters comes with four cables with different connectors to enable compatibility with different bodypack transmitters and devices. One of the cables has a 3.5mm TRS male connector which is compatible for use with the TASCAM DR-10L Micro Portable Audio Recorder, will not work with a non-locking 3.5mm mic input like the one on a mirrorless camera. However, the locking 3.5mm connector can be used with an XLR male adapter such as the Rode VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter (B&H # ROVXLRP) and then connected to a device like the IK Multimedia iRig Pre 2 Ultracompact XLR Microphone Interface (B&H # IKPIRIGPRE2I), or the Comica Audio LinkFlex AD2 Single-Channel Mic and Guitar Interface for Smartphones and Cameras (B&H # COLNKFLEXAD2), or the Comica Audio LINKFLEX AD3 Dual-Channel Audio Mixer for Camera and Smartphone (B&H # COLINKFLXAD3). You will need to turn on the phantom power (48V) on the mic preamps to power the mic. The VXLR+ adapter provides a built-in phantom power converter that converts phantom power to plug-in power in order to provide the correct amount of voltage for the mic. The 3.5mm TRRS connector on the preamp's attached cable can connect to the camera's mic input or to connect to the iPhone, you can attach the Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (B&H # APLAADAP) to the 3.5mm TRRS male connector.

Q: 2. Can I take of wind screen?

A: Yes

Q: 3. This MKE2 is giving me distortion even though my levels are far from clipping. I got this mic with the Sennheiser AVX bundle and recently shot a training video. My levels peaked around -24 to -12db, however, during playback I can hear high frequencies distort. It gets much noticeable once I process the audio and raise the level. I normally record straight into camera and also into an external recorder with this lav mic, however this issue keeps recurring. Why does this mic keep distorting my sound? Any help or tips would definitely be appreciated!

A: There are a number of things to consider when trying to source the cause of distortion. The question is where is the distortion occurring? Is the mic element overloading due to high SPL, or is the transmitter clipping because of improper gain staging? If the receiver is outputting line level and the input on the camera or recorder is set to mic, that may be the cause. Also, the gain settings on the preamp of the recording device needs to be set accordingly as it is a major part of the audio chain as well.

Q: 4. Can you buy additional mic clips for this microphone?

A: Yes, a lavalier tie clip such as BH #AUTCOLM25 would be suitable for the Tentacle Sync lavalier.

Q: 5. Can I connect to the Rode Wireless GO II 2?

A: Since the BOYA BY-M2D Dual Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphones have a detachable Lightning cable with a standard 3.5mm TRS connector and operate using plug-in power, the BY-M2D should work with a standard 3.5mm TRS male to 3.5mm TRS male cable like the Pearstone Stereo Mini Male to Stereo Mini Male Cable (B&H # PEMMSA103B) to connect to other devices that have a standard 3.5mm TRS mic input and supply plug-in power. Although we have not tested it with the Wireless GO II transmitter, the BY-M2D should work when using the stereo mini aux cable.

Q: 6. What are the changes/differences from the previous model?

A: The original Sennheiser ME 2 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector (Black) features a removeable basket-style windscreen, whereas the ME 2-ii that comes with the Sennheiser EW 100 series wireless systems has a non-removeable windscreen.

Q: 7. Can you remove the locking part of the 3.5mm connector to work with DJI Mic 2?

A: You cannot remove the locking part of the 3.5mm connector on the Sennheiser ME 2 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector (Black). However, you can still use it with the DJI Mic 2, but the locking mechanism would just be loose and can rattle with movement. A little bit of gaffer tape would remedy this though.

Q: 8. Does this lav come in white?

A: The Tentacle Sync Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector is currently only offered in black color.

Q: 9. Is the pinout compatible for Sennheiser or Sony?

A: The Tentacle Sync Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector is compatible for use with Sennheiser wireless transmitters.

Q: 10. Is there a Warranty?

A: The Tentacle Sync Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Locking 3.5mm Connector (Black) carries a 2-year manufacturer warranty.
