Detail 01
Cardioid lavalier capsule
Rejects sound from behind, so it resists feedback better than an omni lav, but it must stay aimed at the mouth.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Wireless lavalier system for talking, not singing. For presenters, teachers and video work that need hands free and the mic out of the frame.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Conference talks and classroom lectures where hands stay free
- Video interviews that need the mic off camera
- Fitness or worship leaders moving around a room
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Lead vocals — a lapel mic can't handle close singing
- Loud stages; an open lav feeds back before a handheld does
- Anyone wanting a headset — this is a lapel capsule
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
40–20,000 Hz mic range
More low end than a handheld vocal set, so speech keeps chest weight instead of sounding thin and phoney.
Detail 03
118 dB max SPL
Plenty of headroom for a projected voice or applause up close. Distortion won't be your limit here — feedback will.
Detail 04
34 dB-A self-noise
Higher than a studio mic. In a quiet room you'll hear some hiss once you push gain for a soft speaker.
Detail 05
3-pin mini XLR on a 5 foot cable
Locks into the bodypack and gives enough slack to route under a jacket down to a belt clip.
Detail 06
10 hours on one AA
One battery covers a full teaching day. There's no charging here, so carry spares.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Placement decides the sound: about a hand's width below the chin, aimed at the mouth
- 02Clothing rustle and jewelry get picked up — plan the mounting before the event
- 03Feeding a camera needs the receiver set to mic level and the right cable
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this for singing?
It's built for speech. The capsule sits far from the mouth, so you'd fight feedback and lose presence. The handheld vocal version suits singing.
02Does it come with a headset mic?
No. It's a clip-on lapel capsule on a 5 foot mini XLR cable that plugs into the beltpack transmitter.
03How far can I walk from the receiver?
10 mW of transmit power covers a normal room or hall with clear sightlines. Walls, metal and a packed crowd shorten that, so keep the receiver visible.
04Will it work with my camera?
The receiver output adjusts from mic to line level, so it can feed a camera input. You'll need a cable from XLR or 1/4 inch to your camera's jack.
