About DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4266 Omni Headset Mic, MicroDot, 110mm Boom, Brown

Before you delve into the world of professional audio, consider the d:fine CORE 4266 Omnidirectional Flex Two-Ear Headset Microphone with MicroDot Connector and 110mm Boom in a subtle brown color. This condenser microphone is a fusion of the renowned sound quality of the d:fine 4066 Omnidirectional Capsule and a flexible, lightweight headset system.

Designed for ease of use and quick adjustments, this microphone delivers a clean, transparent sound quality with ample headroom. The capsule, identical to the d:fine 4066, is attached to an interchangeable boom arm, providing versatility and convenience. Like all microphones in the d:fine range, the 4266 model offers precise, natural voice intelligibility and high Sound Pressure Level (SPL) capabilities. It can handle both speech and singing without any distortion, ensuring pristine audio quality.

The d:fine CORE 4266 headset microphone is not only lightweight and flexible but also offers easy mounting to either the left or right side. Its minimal visual impact and resistance to humidity make it a reliable choice for various environments. The flexible adapter system is compatible with most professional wireless systems, enhancing its versatility.

Available as an earset or headset, this microphone caters to different user preferences and situations. The earset variant is quick to put on, making it ideal for conferences and other events requiring fast and easy setup. The headset variant, on the other hand, offers a secure fit, perfect for active performance situations. Both types are ergonomically designed for comfort and ease of use.

The microphone adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, ensuring a secure mount that is barely visible. The boom and ear hook can be rotated, allowing easy use on either the left or right ear. The connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, facilitating quick swaps of broken cables or wireless connectors.

The d:fine CORE 4266 microphone incorporates CORE by DPA technology, minimizing distortion and enhancing clarity and openness. From whispers to screams, this microphone delivers superior performance. It also boasts a 14dB increase in dynamic range, offering an even more open and clear sound.

All CORE by DPA technology microphones, including the d:fine CORE 4266, are IP58 certified, ensuring durability. This is achieved through water-repellant nano-coating of the cover and housing, hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier at the core of the mic, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm.

The omnidirectional feature of this microphone ensures sensitivity at all angles, capturing sound equally from all directions for a natural and realistic output. Despite the potential for feedback in live situations, the close-to-source use of this microphone can deliver a more natural sound, handle extremely high sound pressure levels, and resist wind, pop, or handling noise.

The d:fine CORE 4266 microphone's adapter system offers flexibility and affordability. You can switch your adapter as needed, without the cost of a new microphone, and without any loss or change in sound quality. This microphone is compatible with all leading wireless mic solutions, making it a sound investment for years to come.
