The Countryman E6i Directional Earset Microphone, model E6IDW6C1AK with a 1mm cocoa cable, is designed for AKG transmitters. It's a tiny ear-set mic that offers almost invisible operation in various settings like stage shows, trade fairs, religious services, auctions, and lectures. The cardioid version cuts down off-axis feedback and noise from nearby monitors, instruments, and other noisy sources. It comes with a windscreen to reduce wind noise typical of cardioid mics. The E6i stands out from the original E6 with its softer, flexible boom and silicon ear-pads. The flexible boom makes it easy to adjust for multiple users. There are many colors and connection options available for different wireless transmitters. The removable, quick-swap cable can be detached from the headset and replaced if there's a short or break. This design also makes it simple to upgrade wireless microphone systems. An omnidirectional version is available for better control of wind noise and plosives. The E6i's sensitivity is optimized to capture clear speaking and vocals without noise or distortion. When it's for one user, the classic E6 with its stiffer boom is a good choice as it can be quickly worn after storage. But for multiple users, the E6i with its soft, flexible boom and large silicone ear piece is the best option. Key features include a Switchcraft TA3F-Female connector for AKG, a 1mm diameter cable, suitability for speaking and vocals, a cardioid pattern, and a cocoa color.
Using the Countryman E6i Directional Earset Microphone is easy. First, choose the right color and connection for your AKG transmitter. Put the earpiece in your ear and adjust the flexible boom to position the microphone close to your mouth. If you're in a windy environment, use the included windscreen to reduce wind noise. When sharing the mic among multiple users, the soft and flexible boom allows for quick adjustments. Remember to handle the cable carefully. If it gets damaged, you can easily replace it with the removable, quick - swap cable. For power, make sure to use the appropriate voltage and load as specified in the technical specs. Keep the microphone clean by gently wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you notice any issues with the sound quality, check the connection between the microphone and the transmitter. With proper use and maintenance, your E6i will provide clear sound for a long time.
