Comments about Countryman EMW Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Flat Frequency Response and 3-pin XLR Connector (Black):
I'm a full time freelance location mixer and have owned and worked with many lav mics over the years (TR-50, COS-11, B6...) and the four EMW's I own are good performers overall but not quite equal to Trams or COS-11's for accurate representation of true to life sound. They do sound fine but not quite as clear as others. Then again EMW's cost less. I've also found that they have quite a bit more wire noise when hiding them. That is in my experience I'm more likely to get clothing noise than with Trams or COS-11's. They handle pops and light wind noise better than COS-11's (which without the ball windscreen are very wind prone). Overall a good economical lav for general use but with some limitations.

Comments about Countryman EMW Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with Flat Frequency Response and 3-pin XLR Connector (Black):
I use this mic on my Marantz 661. It picks up great sound with little signal noise. Its almost as good as a comparable sennheiser at a fraction of the cost.
