Sanken COS-11D Omnidirectional Lav Mic with Lower Sensitivity & Servo-Bias TA5F Plug for Lectrosonics Wireless Systems (Black, Accessories Not Included) | SAN-11DARBKSMLE
The most reliable lavalier in production sound isn?t always the right pick for loud environments or wireless transmitters that clip easily. That?s where the Sanken COS-11D steps in with its lower sensitivity rating?built specifically to handle high sound pressure levels without distortion. Don?t buy a mic you?ll have to pad down later.
- The lower sensitivity design lets this omnidirectional lav mic take on shouting talent, speech reinforcement, or booming dialogue without overdriving your transmitter?s input stage. You keep clean headroom where standard lavs would break up.
- It terminates in a servo-bias TA5F plug factory-ready for Lectrosonics wireless systems; you get battery-free operation straight out of the box, with no adapter, no powering mismatch, and no soldering needed.
- Despite its higher headroom build, the COS-11D?s omnidirectional pickup pattern stays natural and forgiving. Placement isn?t as critical as with directional mics, so quick costume changes or tight interviews don?t force time-consuming repositioning.
- The black finish and compact capsule keep it visually discreet on camera, while Sanken?s proven high-SPL handling means this capsule handles live stage levels just as easily as quiet film dialogue.
