The Countryman E6i is a top - notch miniature ear - set microphone. It's perfect for a wide range of events like stage performances, trade shows, religious services, auctions, and lectures. Its presence is almost invisible, ensuring it doesn't distract from your presentation. The cardioid version is a game - changer. It cuts down off - axis feedback and noise from nearby monitor speakers, instruments, and other noisy sources. The flexible microphone positioning lets you adjust it just the way you like, and the included windscreen reduces wind noise typical of cardioid mics. What sets the E6i apart from the original E6 is its softer flexible boom and silicon ear - pads. The flexible boom makes it super easy to adjust for multiple users. You can choose from a variety of colors and connections to work with different wireless transmitters. The removable, quick - swap cable can be detached from the headset and replaced if it has a short or break. This makes upgrading your wireless microphone system a breeze. There's also an omnidirectional version available to control wind noise and plosives. The E6i is optimized to capture strong vocals clearly, without noise or distortion. It has high headroom, making it ideal for singers and performers in stage and broadcast applications. If one person uses the mic, the classic E6 is a good option as its stiffer boom stays in place. But when multiple people share a mic, the E6i with its soft, flexible boom and larger silicone ear piece is the better choice. Key features include a Switchcraft TA3F - Female connector for AKG, a 1mm diameter cable, support for strong vocals, cardioid polar pattern, and a tan color. Technical specs show it has a condenser transducer, a cardioid polar pattern, a frequency response from 30Hz to 20 kHz +/- 3dB, a signal - to - noise ratio with equivalent acoustic noise of 39 dBA SPL, a maximum input sound level of 145dB SPL, specific power requirements, an output impedance of 2 kOhms, a Switchcraft TA3F - Female output connector for AKG transmitters, and a weight of 0.07 oz (2g).
Using the Countryman E6i is easy. First, choose the right color and connection for your wireless transmitter. Put on the ear - set and adjust the flexible boom so the microphone is in the right position near your mouth. If you're in a windy environment, make sure to attach the windscreen. When multiple people are using the mic, the soft boom can be easily adjusted for each user. For maintenance, keep the microphone clean. You can gently wipe it with a soft cloth. If the cable gets damaged, simply detach the quick - swap cable and replace it with a new one. Make sure to use the right power supply according to the technical specs. Avoid exposing the mic to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you're storing the mic, keep it in a safe place where the boom won't get bent or damaged. And if you're upgrading your wireless system, the replaceable cable design makes it very convenient to switch to a different transmitter.
