★★★★★

"I like to have the smallest footprint possible because that attracts the least attention, which is important when you are recording wildlife, the best way to achieve this is with a lavalier microphone and a Windbubble."

★★★★★

"I really like the Bubblebee Concealer products for lavalier microphones. The rubber mounts...and the metal guards stop friction noise from reaching my mic capsule."

★★★★★

"I used a lavalier & a Windbubble and the result was fantastic, despite the wind blowing directly onto the microphone. You couldn't hear it at all. It was such a relief to have equipment I could trust."

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

What's included in the Broadcast Earpiece Spares Kit?

Round, Satellite, and Christmas Tree eartips in multiple sizes, Small and Large Broadcast IEM Clips, replacement filters, and filter tools—everything you need to maintain your Sidekick Broadcast Earpiece.

Is this compatible with the Sidekick 3?

The eartips work with both models. However, the Broadcast IEM Clips are designed specifically for the Broadcast Earpiece. For Sidekick 3, get the dedicated Sidekick Spares Kit instead.

How is the Broadcast IEM Clip different from regular clips?

The Broadcast IEM Clip is specifically designed for the Broadcast Earpiece's reinforced braided cable. It provides secure cable management optimized for broadcast environments.

Why are there two clip sizes?

Small and Large clips accommodate different mounting positions and routing preferences. Use Small for discreet placement, Large when you need more secure cable management.

How often should I replace the acoustic filters?

Replace filters when audio quality decreases or debris becomes visible. With regular use, check monthly. The kit includes replacement filters and tools for easy maintenance.

Which eartip style should I use?

Round tips offer comfort for long wear, Christmas Tree provides maximum isolation, and Satellite balances both. Experiment to find what works best for each presenter.

Can I buy individual components separately?

Yes, eartips, clips, and filters are available as individual products. The Spares Kit bundles everything at a better value for complete maintenance coverage.

How do I use the filter replacement tools?

The kit includes a pick tool to remove old filters and a press tool to insert new ones. Gentle pressure is all that's needed—the tools make filter changes quick and safe.

Is one kit enough for multiple earpieces?

One kit provides enough components for maintaining several Broadcast Earpieces. For large productions with many units, consider stocking multiple kits.

What sizes of eartips are included?

Small, Medium, and Large sizes are included for each eartip style. This range covers the vast majority of ear canal sizes for broadcast talent.
