The Countryman B3 is a professional omnidirectional lavalier built for sound designers, production mixers, and broadcast engineers who demand consistent, high-quality audio capture across demanding applications. Its micro-sized capsule and natural pickup pattern make it equally effective as a tie-clip mic for corporate interviews, a hidden hairline mic for theatrical productions, or a discreet plant mic for reality television and sports broadcast. The protective caps are resistant to water, sweat, and makeup, giving it durability that holds up through full production days and multi-show runs. The detachable connector system means a single mic body can interface with a wide range of Lectrosonics wireless transmitters, reducing kit redundancy and allowing for straightforward system reconfiguration in the field.
What separates the B3 from competing lavalieres in its price class is the combination of an ultra-thin diaphragm and an aramid-reinforced Duramax cable. Together, these design choices produce extremely low handling noise, a critical advantage when concealing a mic under costume or running cable through hair rigs for theatrical head miking. Field-selectable high-frequency response caps allow the engineer to tune the mic's character to suit different voices, placement positions, or to match the tonal balance of other mics in a mixed rig. The B3 is available in standard and mid gain versions to suit different transmitter input levels and application types, and in multiple colors to blend with a range of skin tones and wardrobe. This range of connector, gain, and color options makes the B3 a scalable solution for both single-mic ENG kits and large theatrical ensemble packages.
