Audio-Technica AT892cW Lavalier Microphone

The AT892cW is the wireless-terminated version of Audio-Technica's MicroSet headworn condenser, a 2.5 mm omnidirectional capsule on a thin under-ear boom that is nearly invisible on camera. It hooks behind either ear on a light, flexible loop and holds the element at the corner of the mouth, so performers in theater, television, and houses of worship can move without the microphone shifting or drawing the eye.

The omnidirectional pattern captures full, natural speech and forgives small changes in position. A locking 4-pin connector terminates the cable for Audio-Technica UniPak body-pack transmitters and stays secure as the wearer moves. It ships in black, with a beige AT892cW-TH available when the boom needs to blend against lighter skin.
