Sennheiser MKE 2
Best professional lavalier for broadcast and theater performers.
This is the industry standard for when audio absolutely cannot fail, even under the stress of heavy perspiration or long theatrical runs. Its unique moisture-resistant design makes it nearly invincible in live environments, though you will need to rely on external caps to fine-tune its otherwise neutral, uncolored sound profile.
