Comments about Countryman B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone (Black):
These mics are used for all our newscasts throughout the day, 7 days a week. It has a very clean and clear sound. A drawback would be that the capsule sometimes come loose and the mic cuts out until you can get it screwed back on.
