A virtually invisible mono in-ear monitor with a single-sided curly cable, the Bubblebee Industries Sidekick 3 updates the Sidekick's micro-speaker driver, so the entire unit fits comfortably in the ear while delivering crystal-clear cues, with a smoother frequency response and deeper lows even in noisy environments. This redesign eliminates the need for acoustic tubes, resulting in a visually discreet appearance and no compromise to intelligibility.

Thanks to the low-profile earpiece and ultrathin, lightweight cable that loops around the ear, the Sidekick 3 remains comfortable to wear without fatigue, all day and well into the night. Three kinds of eartips are included to allow sonic options such as low or high ambience. Stay attuned to the environment around you, or block it out. The 3.5mm TRS connector ensures compatibility with the headphone jacks on most devices.

Designed to fit inside the ear canal, the Sidekick 3 driver unit is so small that it is not visible when worn in the ear.

The Sidekick 3's cable loop guides the cable behind the ear, hiding it from sight and making the Sidekick virtually invisible when worn. You can now use the earpiece in either the left or right ear, your choice.

The newly designed driver boasts an extended frequency response, allowing the user to hear a more rounded, higher quality of audio. It's tough and resilient, tested with tolerances up to three times higher than previous Sidekick versions.

A lower impedance driver allows the user a greater range of volume control and can comfortably be used with a lower-output device such as a mobile phone.

The Sidekick 3 features three different types of eartips, allowing the user to adapt the varying levels of external ambience: Satellite (high ambience), Christmas Tree (low ambience), and Round (increased low-frequency definition).

The 48" cable features a curly design with strain relief.

The super low profile of the Sidekick 3 cable is 44% thinner than the first generation cable, with a diameter of only 33μm. The color-neutral cable easily blends into almost any background without being noticed on camera.

Wear your Sidekick 3 for 20 hours straight with no fatigue. It weights just 360 milligrams excluding the cable. The Sidekick 3 cable is 50% lighter than the first generation Sidekick cable, allowing for a virtually fatigue-free experience.

Using Kevlar-reinforced cables, the Sidekick 3 is one piece, from termination to driver, and is made to last. The eartips are easy to clean, and the driver's filter is easily replaceable.

A 3.5mm TRS mini-jack connector means compatibility with most wireless receivers, accessories, and phones.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this fit the Sennheiser ME 2-II Lavalier Microphone?

A: No, the Bubblebee Industries Lav Concealer for Deity W.Lav Pro is not intended for use with the Sennheiser ME 2-II Lavalier Microphone. Instead, you can use the Bubblebee Industries Lav Concealer Mic Mount for Sennheiser ME 2-II (B&H # BUBBILCME22B) or the LMC Sound C Mount for Sennheiser ME 2-II Microphone (B&H # LMCMTME2IIBK).

Q: 2. Is there a fluffy/wind protection designed to attach to this to further decrease the chance of wind noise?

A: Because the Bubblebee Industries Lav Concealer for Sanken COS-11 covers the capsule of the Sanken COS-11 in its entirety, other than the small opening at the top, there is not a wind protection accessory designed specifically for pairing with the Lav Concealer. In theory you could affix the Bubblebee Industries Invisible Lav Fur Covers (BH #BUBBIILCF30) over the capsule for added wind protection as desired: https://bhpho.to/3P7sFAe
