if you're into binaural recording, the headphones the come with the
WM-R15 have microphones that are builtin to the headsets.  the D6C supplies
the required power to run the electret elements.  my dealer was unable
to tell me if they are available separately or not or how much they will
cost.  i think the model number is MDR-W70.  i would expect limited
frequency response of maybe 50-14k.  these will not work on a WM-D6
because there is no power supply from the microphone connection.
