  • Consistent pickup from all directions with omnidirectional polar pattern
  • Ultra-quiet recordings at just 24 dBA equivalent noise level
  • Handles loud sources up to 140 dB SPL on 48 V phantom power
  • Efficient 500 uA current draw across 1 to 2 V range

Tiny Lavalier for Professional Audio

The Countryman B6 Fixed Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone in tan measures just one-tenth of an inch in diameter. Its omnidirectional pattern captures sound evenly from all directions. This makes it suited for interviews, presentations, podcasts and broadcast work where consistent audio is required. The fixed cable design simplifies setup for permanent installations or fast-paced shoots.

Power and Noise Constraints

The microphone operates on a low 500 uA current across a 1 to 2 Volt range, so it must be paired with a compatible wireless transmitter or preamp that supplies this specific bias power. Self-noise sits at 24 dBA equivalent acoustic noise, which sets the practical floor for quiet recording environments. Maximum sound pressure level reaches 140 dB when powered by 48 V Phantom Power, limiting use in extremely loud close-miked sources without attenuation.

Fixed Cable and Cap System

The non-detachable cable means the entire unit must be replaced if the cable is damaged, unlike detachable lavalier systems. Swappable protective caps provide moisture resistance and allow frequency response adjustment to match other microphones or suit different scenes. Buyers needing a removable cable for quick replacement or cable-length flexibility should choose a different system.

Questions about this item

Which version of the B6 lavalier should I choose for a permanent installation?

The fixed, non-detachable B6 is intended for permanent mounting where a secure, permanent connection is preferred over a detachable cable.

What does the 24 dBA self-noise figure mean when I am recording dialogue?

It indicates an ultra-quiet noise floor, so spoken-word tracks stay clean without audible hiss even at low speaking levels.

What voltage range does the microphone need and what connector supplies it?

It operates from 1 to 2 Volts and is powered by 48 V phantom power through the connected audio device.
