BP893 MicroEarset Omnidirectional Condenser Headworn Microphone

With its ergonomically molded earpiece and unobtrusive one-inch boom, Audio-Technica’s BP893 MicroEarset offers inconspicuous placement along with clear, natural vocal pickup. Its lightweight low-profile design makes the microphone ideal for use in theatrical performances, houses of worship and broadcast studios.

The BP893 MicroEarset is positioned unobtrusively over the ear. Its omnidirectional miniature condenser capsule offers outstanding pickup tailored for natural vocal reproduction, with audio reproduction similar to that of a high-quality lavalier microphone.

Answer: 
Thank you for your inquiry. Please note the version you selected is a "Wired" version of this microphone and made to plug directly into a PA system. The wireless version is the BP893cW (see link)

http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/a...

Please note that the prices on our web are MSRP and you will get a much better price at an Audio-Technica dealer. Also note that this is justthe microphone and you will need to purchase a wireless system.

Audio-Technica BP893

I am an 70 year old violinist beginning to suffer hearing loss. I do not currently wear any hearing aids. To insure proper timing of my violin bowing it is imperative when playing with an orchestra that I not only hear my own instrument, merely inches from my left ear, but the whole orchestra around me. I find I often can not hear my own instrument. Is there such a device which will connect to,or be in proximity to my violin and amplify it (via a cord) to a speaker-device in my ear(s)?

Answer: 
Thank you for your inquiry. These sound very nice on vocals. They only issue could be feedback if the vocals are routed through stage monitors since the microphone is omni directional.
