About DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4266 Omni Earset Mic, MicroDot, 90mm Boom, Beige

What sets the d:fine CORE 4266 Omnidirectional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone apart is its impeccable fusion of the renowned d:fine 4066 Omnidirectional Capsule's legendary sound with a state-of-the-art, flexible earset design. This professional-grade condenser microphone is engineered for quick and precise adjustments, ensuring a secure, comfortable fit with minimal visual presence. Its transparent sound quality, complemented by an extensive dynamic range, captures the natural tone and clarity of the human voice, whether speaking or singing, without any distortion.

Crafted for durability and reliability, the d:fine CORE 4266 boasts a lightweight construction that is resistant to humidity, making it an ideal choice for presentations and performances in various environments. The omnidirectional polar pattern excels in capturing sound from all directions, offering consistent audio pickup even when the speaker is in motion.

The microphone's flexible gooseneck boom, available in three lengths, including the 90mm option, allows for tailored positioning to suit different applications and user preferences. The innovative MicroDot connector system enhances the microphone's versatility, enabling quick and easy cable or wireless connector replacements, thus extending the product's lifespan and adaptability to different wireless systems.

CORE by DPA technology lies at the heart of this microphone, delivering a 14dB increase in dynamic range and a sound that is even more open and clear. The CORE's advanced design minimizes distortion across all sound levels, from a soft whisper to a powerful scream, ensuring pristine audio capture.

The d:fine CORE 4266 is IP58 certified, a testament to its robust build quality. This certification guarantees that the microphone is protected against dust and moisture, thanks to its water-repellent nano-coating, hermetically sealed amplifier, and dual gold-plated diaphragm.

Omnidirectional microphones like the d:fine CORE 4266 are prized for their natural sound reproduction, free from proximity effect and less susceptible to wind, pop, or handling noise. While they are versatile in studio settings for ambient sound capture and ensemble recordings, this microphone is specifically optimized for close-miking, reducing the risk of feedback in live scenarios.

The d:fine CORE 4266's adapter system underscores its flexibility, allowing seamless integration with a wide array of professional wireless systems from leading brands such as Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom, and more. This unique feature ensures that your investment in high-quality sound is safeguarded for years to come.

Whether for conferences, live performances, or any situation requiring a discreet yet powerful audio solution, the d:fine CORE 4266 Omnidirectional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone stands as a testament to DPA Microphones' commitment to innovative, high-quality, and versatile audio equipment.
