Countryman E6I Overview

The Countryman E6i Omnidirectional Microphone is a miniature earset microphone for virtually invisible operation in stage performances, trade shows, houses-of-worship, auctions, lectures and much more.

The omnidirectional version is most common in applications where feedback issues are not very likely. The microphone can be worn without a windscreen as the omnidirectional capsule provides excellent wind noise rejection.

The E6i is set apart from the original E6 with its softer flexible boom and silicon ear-pads. The flexible boom provides ease of boom adjustability to accommodate multi-user applications.

A wide variety of colors and connections are available for use with various wireless transmitters. This version is cocoa and features a Switchcraft TA4-Female connector for specific* Electro-Voice/Telex transmitters.

Note:
*This E6i features a connector that is wired specifically for use with the Electro-Voice 300, N/DYM, NBPU, MSB, BPV, BPU, BPU2, CBS-1000, RE-1 and RE2 transmitters only.
Miniature Unobtrusive Design
A miniature omnidirectional capsule is mounted to a low-profile, flexible frame with silicon ear pads. This lightweight, unobtrusive design is available in various colors that virtually render the entire microphone invisible against the skin.
Removable Cable
The included 1mm Diameter Cable detaches from the actual headset, making it completely replaceable in the event of a short or break. The replaceable cable design makes upgrading wireless microphone systems easy, as they are available in a wide selection of connections to accommodate various wireless transmitters.
Omnidirectional Polar Pattern
The omnidirectional polar pattern is most effective in minimizing wind noise, plosives (popping) and handling noise. The flexible boom provides a custom fit for multiple users and close microphone positioning while minimizing off-axis noise. The E6i is also available in a cardioid version for maximum off-axis noise rejection in environments with high feedback and noise.
Sensitivity Optimized for General Speech
This E6i sensitivity response is optimized to accurately capture general speech without noise and distortion.

It comes with a 3.5mm locking connector for Sennheiser EW system. A 4 pin Hirose for Audio-Technica. You will find that what ever system you are using Countryman makes the connector for your system.The Countryman Snap-on Microphone Cable is designed for use with the E6 and E6i ear set microphones. These replaceable cables are available in various connector types to accommodate various wireless microphone transmitters. If the cable breaks all you have to do is replace the cable. So whatever wireless you are using. All you have to do is find the E6 with the matching connector.
