Pliant PHS-SB11L2-TA6F

The SmartBoom LITE PHS-SB11L2 is the light end of Pliant's intercom headset line, a single-ear design that trades the bulk of the PRO for a compact on-ear cup you can wear through a long call. Its dynamic noise-cancelling cardioid microphone is tuned for voice and rejects the room around it, while the SmartBoom boom doubles as the mute: flip it up to cut the mic, drop it to talk. The flexible, ambidextrous boom swivels to either side so left- or right-handed operators wear it the same way.

This version terminates in a 6-pin female mini XLR (TA6F) connector, matched to Pliant's CrewCom CRP-C12 compact radio pack. Its ear cushion, temple pad, and windscreen are all replaceable, and the non-reflective rubberized matte-black finish keeps it from catching stage or camera light.
