Manufactured for the pro audio industry and in particular IFB (Interruptible foldback), these in-ear monitors are designed to provide the user with a comfortable monitoring option that is ‘not visible when worn in the ear’.
The design of The Sidekick 3 in-ear monitors sees improved performance in comparison to the older Sidekick 2. A new driver gives a wider frequency response, and in turn offer greater clarity and sound definition. The impedance of the earphones has been slightly reduced so that the drivers offer more compatibility with lower output devices such as mobile devices.
The 122cm cable has a diameter of 33 micrometres, is terminated with a TRS 3.5mm jack, and is available with curly strain relief or without. Sidekick 3 weighs 360milligrams without the cable, ensuring comfortable wearing with ‘a virtually fatigue-free experience’ over periods of hours.
A number of optional eartips allow differing levels of ambient noise and frequency definition, and a selection of which are included with the Sidekick 3.
Included accessories: 1x Protective Carry Case, 1x The Satellite Eartip for full ambience, 1x The Christmas Tree Eartip for high isolation, 2x The Round Eartip for increased frequency definition, 1x The Gator clothing clip, 2x The Sidekick Filter replacement tool.
This stereo version has the same acoustic properties as the Sidekick 3 mono IFB monitors, however it has a stereo configuration and therefore allows the user to monitor in both ears.
Included accessories: 1x Protective Carry Case, 2x The Satellite Eartip for full ambience, 2x The Christmas Tree Eartip for high isolation, 4x The Round Eartip for increased frequency definition, 1x The Gator clothing clip, 2x The Sidekick Filter replacement tool.

Round Eartip has been designed for increased frequency definition, and therefore offers little ambient noise ingress. Available in packs of 10 in small (BBI-SRE-10-S) or medium (BBI-SRE-10-M) sizes.
