About DPA Microphones d:fine 4088-C Classic Cardioid Directional Headset Mic, Brown

Before you settle for any headset microphone, consider the d:fine 4088 Classic Cardioid Directional Headset Microphone. This high-quality, professional-grade microphone is designed by DPA Microphones, a brand renowned for its superior audio equipment. With its cardioid polar pattern, this microphone is adept at reducing background noise and focusing on the sound source, making it an ideal choice for presentations, speeches, and live performances.

The d:fine 4088 is more than just a microphone; it's a testament to DPA's rich history and expertise in microphone design and manufacturing. It delivers an open, natural, and reliable sound that lets your voice shine through, not the microphone. This makes it perfect for acoustically challenging environments where background noise and feedback are prevalent.

One of the standout features of the d:fine 4088 is its sleek and elegant design. Its stylish appearance makes it one of the most discreet headworn cardioid microphones available today. But don't let its stylish design fool you; this microphone is as durable as it is attractive, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of regular use.

The d:fine 4088 features a pre-polarized first-order pressure gradient transducer, housed in a small and lightweight casing that's only slightly larger than their omni capsules. This design is based on the proven quality of the 4066 headset microphone, offering unparalleled flexibility and stability.

The microphone's boom is 3 centimeters longer than standard models, allowing for optimal placement at the corner of the mouth. This ensures clear, crisp audio capture for every word you speak. Available in three colors - black, beige, and brown - and requiring a microdot termination adaptor, the d:fine 4088 Classic Cardioid Directional Headset Microphone is a versatile addition to any audio equipment collection.
