* Omni directional dual-diaphragm design with unparalleled sound quality
* Ultra-compact microphone capsule with a flat-and-wide frequency response
* Extremely low cable handling noise
* Water-resistant design

Features:

Low handling noise
Moving around while wearing a lavalier mic can often cause lav mic cables to rub against a users clothing. In many existing lavalier mic designs, this (frequently unavoidable) body movement can cause loud undesirable handling noise. The ECM-88BC radically reduces this handling noise making it ideal for use in applications where users are moving.

Flat-and-wide frequency response
Many lavalier microphones are specifically optimized for speech reproduction and have limited use in other applications. The ECM-88BC extends it's frequency response beyond the range of speech reproduction, and can be used for many high quality sound applications requiring a miniature mic that can easily be concealed.
