Great product, used for theatrical productions. Cord is long enough to provide good flexibility. Quality is that which I'd expect from a much more expensive package. If not cared for,

Comments about Audio-Technica AT899CW - Sub-Miniature Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone:
I am using this mic with the AT wireless system. We are constantly shooting with the wireless receiver mounted on the Panasonic HPX170 HD camera. I love the ease of use and the clarity of the sound. I was particularly impressed with the wide range of accessories for mounting that came with the mic.
I highly recommend this product.
