EW100 Lav

[dantewaters]

I have a frayed wire on my lav mic that comes with the EW 100 the mic needs
replacing.

Can someone please provide a link (I've been looking).
It was also suggested to get the B3 with Sennheiser connector for $200 I'm debating
but you guys please let me know.

This is the stock omni from Sennheiser wireless, but I doubt there's anybody here who would recommend that you get one. Especially when the B3 is only about $45 more...

What about the B6 and also how durable are these mics (countryman)?

 

[Captain Pierce]

Can't help you with those; my only Countryman experience is with the E6i series. Looking at the B6, I would think it's worth the extra $100 or so if you really need a mic that small. But I am still learning much about this crazy world of sound for video...

I too was curious as to how the Countryman B6 sounded through the Sennheiser Evolution G2. I got one and recorded this http://www.dvcreators.net/countryman-b6-lavalier/

I ended up getting the B3 yesterday at B&H ($199) and the quality is good...
If you guys want a clip let me know.

Here's a snippet of a wide shot I snagged from a short I was on last week. The clip is just 2 raw iso tracks summed together.

The wheelchair guy has a B6 going through a G2 and the guy standing has a B6 going through a UM400.

Both are under clothing.
