Delivering unmatched value, comfort,

sound quality and secure t, the Wi Sure-

Sound™ earset ultra-small removable MIC capsule mounted on an ultra-thin, rugged, bendable, adjustable length and incredibly lightweight boom captures vocals clearly with excellent rejection of wind and ambient noise.

The Wi Sure-Sound™ earset is an excellent choice for pastors, artists,

tness instructors, speaking and singing

performers, video camera miking and hard to MIC instruments.

Connecting The Earset Cable

different wireless systems including AKG™, Shure™, Sony™, Audio-Technica™ and Sennheiser™.

1. Locate the detachable earset cable.

2. Fasten the earset end of the earset cable to the screw

Left or Right Ear Placement

The Wi Sure-Sound series can easily be converted from right to left ear wearing preferences with a Simple-Twist™. This

unmatched time saving feature delivers exceptional exibility for venues needing to accommodate multiple users and their

wearing preferences.

1. Press the boom locking switch located on the bottom

of the Silicon ear mount.

2. Rotate the boom 180 degrees to the preferred

ear wearing preference.

3. Release the locking switch when rotation is complete.

No need to rework the bend or reshape the boom again when switching from left to right ear placement. The boom maintains its original angle to capture vocals from the near the-mouth position, from the opposite side.

EARSET FITTING

Wearing the Wi Sure-Sound Earset

The Wi Sure-Sound series advanced ergonomic Silicon ear-mount design delivers an unmatched comfortable t in seconds while ensuring secure boom placement even when the head moves, or when used with glasses or other head-worn accessories. This ultra-lightweight MIC is incredibly easy to wear even for an extended time.

1. Pull the “C” shaped Sure-Sound silicon ear mount wide open and

clip over the ear.

2. Loop the bottom part of the “C” shaped ear mount beneath the earlobe.

3. You should feel the Wi Sure-Sound earset gripping your ear and pressing

out against your earlobe for comfortable secure t.

4. The boom is designed to press and curve smoothly around the face.

Adjusting the boom length and curvature are covered in the following section.

EARSET FITTING

Adjusting the Boom Length

The Wi Sure-Sound series boom can easily be adjusted to the appropriate length and placement with a simple push of a button to capture the closest near-the-mouth vocals clearly and consistently. The boom locking mechanism keeps the boom securely in place to provide good gain and natural sound that doesn’t change when the head moves.

1. Press the boom locking switch located on the bottom

of the Silicon ear mount.

2. Slide the boom shaft to position the MIC capsule

just behind the corner of your mouth when you are smiling.

3. Release the locking switch when adjustment is complete.

• Placing the microphone too far forward can result in breath-related pops.

Adjusting the Boom Curve

The Wi Sure-Sound series bendable boom can easily be adjusted to position the microphone tip as close as possible to the mouth for best vocal gain and clarity. Adjust the curvature of the boom only when necessary. If the microphone tip is away from the cheek, this will result in lower gain and more ambient noise.

1. Using the thumb and the index nger, curve the boom with

a sliding motion to form the boom and get the curvature you require.

• Avoid bending right at the capsule.

• Do not bend the boom over sharp edges such as the end of your ngernail.

• Do not pinch, twist or kink the boom around a tight radius less than 1/2” diameter.

Positioning The Microphone Capsule

The Wi Sure-Sound series removable microphone capsule is located at the tip of the boom. The key to maximizing the sound quality is to locate the capsule as close as possible to the mouth without touching the face.

1. Press the boom locking switch located on the bottom

of the Silicon ear mount.

2. Slide the boom shaft to position the MIC capsule

just behind the corner of your mouth when you are smiling.

3. Release the locking switch when adjustment is complete.

• Placing the microphone too far forward can result in breath-related pops.

• Use the windscreen outdoors.

Using The Earset/Lavalier Cable Clip

The Wi Sure-Sound series comes with an Earset/ Lavalier cable clip to prevent movement of the cable

from dislodging the earset. The clip is specically

designed to match the diameter of your cable, either

1.4mm or 2mm.

1. Locate the cable clip and gently pull the cable

down into the rubber cable channel opening on the clip.

2. Attach the clip to the collar and leave enough

slack in the cable such that the head can turn to both sides without tugging on the clip.

• We recommend leaving the clip attached to the cable when possible to minimize repetitive strain on the cable.

EARSET HANDLING

Replacing the Microphone Capsule

The Wi Sure-Sound Earset microphone removable capsule design eliminates

the need to purchase different earsets with different microphone specications.

You can choose from a variety of optional removable MIC capsule models with different polar patterns and frequency response for added control over your environment.

1. Remove the MIC capsule from the earset or lavalier MIC port

by unscrewing the MIC capsule counterclockwise.

2. Align the MIC capsule threads in a straight line with earset or

lavalier cable MIC port.

3 Fasten the MIC capsule from the earset or lavalier MIC port

by screwing in the MIC capsule clockwise until snug! Be certain not to overtighten.

AVOID ACCIDENTAL CAPSULE THREAD STRIPPING!

• Be certain to align the MIC capsule threads in a straight line

• Be certain not to overtighten.
