Positioning the Microphone

Hold the earwire with one hand and slide the 

boom forward or back to adjust the length.
The capsule should rest on or just off the 

skin and about 0.25” to 0.5” back from the 

corner of your mouth when smiling.

H6 Omnidirectional:

 

To avoid breath noise, 

you may wish to position 

the microphone slightly 

below the mouth line. 

H6 Directional: 

We recommend that you 

use the windscreen to 

address wind noise.
