HilcrRWise Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I am looking for a decent slim/non obtrusive headset mic for use with the Sennheiser EW312 Radio Mic Kit. Possibilities I have been looking at include: Sennheiser HSP2-EW-3DPA 4066Countryman E6 What are your comments on these mics, do you have any other suggestions? Also are there any UK resellers for the Countryman mics as Googling hasn't turned up anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbsy Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 My personal preference is for the DPA, with the Countryman a very close second and the Sennheiser a bit farther back, though by no means bad. My application is theatre and corporate stuff so YMMV. However, I like the clear, open tone from the DPA and find the headset mount stays on nicely even with energetic blocking. As for a Countryman supplier, I can't help...I used to get them from Canford but they've recently made them special order only. Bobbsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevieR Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 I'll second the DPA choice. They really are fab mics and very easy to work with. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueShift Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Both the DPA and countryman are fantastic mics. I personally prefer the countryman, we use them with our ew112 systems, but both are good. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svender Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 The DPA's are great mics as are the countryman's, they are all quite fragile so some careful handling is required.DPA's can be very sensitive to sweat and can lose top end and a bit of their sparkle if they get "sweated out" it can also render them totally useless.I havent used the countryman much but they are very compact and neat. I know Wigwam Accoustics can supply both - 01706 363400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
