65.9' Attached Cable with Locking Connector
Designed for use with popular wireless transmitters, portable audio recorders, and mixer adapters, the Saramonic DK5E is a professional, water-resistant, omnidirectional lavalier microphone equipped with a gold-plated locking TA4F connector, making it compatible with devices from Shure, TOA, Line 6, and Beyerdynamic.
