When you're on set for hours, listening to cues, live feeds, and worrying about camera angles, the last thing you want is a bulky, uncomfortable, or distracting in-ear monitor. That's why The Sidekick Broadcast Earpiece is quickly becoming the go-to IEM for broadcasters, sound crews, presenters, and performance artists across the globe.

Designed specifically for broadcasters, on-camera talent, live production teams, and theatres, it's lightweight, virtually invisible, and built to perform under pressure.
Here's why it's becoming a first-choice IFB around the world:


1. Unmatched Intelligibility with our new Dynamic Driver Technology

Crystal-clear communications can make or break a live broadcast or show. The Sidekick Broadcast Earpiece features a high-performance dynamic driver, purpose-built for lifelike audio.

Whether you're a presenter catching real-time cues or a boom operator syncing with a remote team, the enhanced frequency response delivers natural, intelligible sound. Plus it's less prone to distortion or failure when exposed to sudden high-volume signals during setup, making it a reliable choice for busy sound crews.

2. Featherlight Comfort for All-Day Wear

This IEM was designed with long shoot days in mind. The Sidekick Broadcast Earpiece sits comfortably in your ear without pressure or fatigue. Whether you're on stage, on location, or on air, you might even forget you're wearing it. No more sore ears halfway through the day.


3. Reinforced Durability You Can Rely On

Say goodbye to flimsy and tangled cables. Wrapped in a braided fibre cloth insulation jacket, The Sidekick Broadcast Earpiece's cable is built to withstand the wear and tear of real-world productions.

  • Resistant to fraying and breaking
  • Flexible and tangle-resistant
  • Robust for studio and location use

4. Virtually Invisible On-Camera

Discretion is everything when you're on screen. The Sidekick's transparent cable from the driver to The Broadcast IEM Clip makes it virtually invisible to the audience. The most invisible IEM on the market, making it ideal for presenters, reporters, actors, theatres, and anyone who needs subtle, discreet comms.

Andi Peter and The Broadcast Sidekick Earpiece

And if you need a bit more reassurance, Andi Peters – a household name on British TV, uses The Sidekick Broadcast Earpiece for all his live segments, proof that performance and visibility can go hand in hand.

Andi shared his thoughts on the latest version: "The new version is more robust as you’ve given it the thicker cord, so it’s easier to use and doesn’t get as tangled as the old one. Also, the case it comes in, with room for the accessories is great."
