This version of the COS-11D is hardwired with a 3-pin XLR connector and can be phantom powered (+12V ~ +52V) or battery powered (1.5V AA).

Sanken, manufacturer of the industry standard in ultra-miniature lapel microphones, now offers the COS-11D. This new generation lapel was designed to meet today’s HD audio standards while providing greater immunity to RF interference. In today’s wireless transmission systems the microphone must remain unaffected by new forms of digital transmitter signals. While the benefits of these new systems are obvious, they present new challenges in the area of emission protection. In many cases, noise levels increase and the S/N ratio is deteriorated by the interference of digital transmitters. Sanken has designed the COS-11D specifically to diminish the instances where interference is an issue. Endorsed by wireless transmitter manufacturers, the COS- 11D PT incorporates exclusive design advances that deal with both digital and digital/analogue hybrid RF wireless transmission. Focusing on the latest challenges in wireless technologies, Sanken has partnered with industry leaders to provide a breakthrough microphone designed to minimize the instances where RF interference is an issue.

Sanken utilizes an exclusive vertical placement of the diaphragm for a much greater effective area within an extremely small casing. Available in four colours (Black,White, Gray, and Beige), the COS-11D features a front mesh screen which is water resistant, better protecting the microphone from perspiration and cosmetics. In addition, the water resistant COS-11D is ideal for outdoor shooting in foul weather.

Sanken has combined extensive R&D with the world’s most advanced precision craftsmanship for the ultimate in sensitivity and natural sound.
