DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex Two-Ear Headset Microphone with MicroDot Connector, 100mm Boom, Brown

When it comes to delivering superior audio quality in both spoken word and vocal performance applications, the d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex Two-Ear Headset Microphone with MicroDot Connector and 100mm Boom stands out. This professional-grade microphone merges the exceptional sound of the 4088 Directional Capsule with the convenience and flexibility of the d:fine Headset system.

Designed for high-SPL capabilities, this microphone ensures accurate and natural voice intelligibility without any distortion, even when users speak or sing directly into it. Its cardioid polar pattern provides excellent off-axis rejection, efficiently suppressing distant sound sources. This makes it an ideal choice for demanding live performance environments where background noise and feedback are potential issues.

The d:fine CORE 4288 microphone is not only lightweight and flexible but also easy to mount on either the left or right side, offering minimal visual impact. Its resistance to humidity and its flexible adapter system, compatible with most professional wireless systems, further enhance its versatility and reliability.

The 4088 Directional Capsule excels in high-SPL events, with a bass response designed for optimal linearity at 2-3 cm from the sound source. This ensures a prominent bass roll-off at greater distances, crucial for background noise rejection and feedback avoidance. The microphone capsule is optimized for low distortion and humidity resistance, making it a reliable choice for various environments.

Available as an earset or headset, the d:fine 4288 microphone is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably and easily, adjusting to any ear size and head shape. It mounts securely and is barely visible, making it perfect for presentations or performances. The connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, allowing for quick swapping of broken cables or wireless connectors.

The d:fine CORE 4288 Directional Earset boasts a 14 dB increase in dynamic range, delivering an even more open and clear sound. All CORE by DPA technology microphones, including this one, are IP58 certified, ensuring durability through water-repellant nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm.

The cardioid microphone, named for its "heart-shaped" polar pattern, offers the most sensitivity at the front and least from the sides and back. This makes it ideal for capturing the focused sound of an instrument or voice on a busy stage. However, it's important to note the proximity effect, which causes an increase in bass response the closer the microphone is to the sound source.

The d:fine CORE 4288 microphone's adapter system provides flexibility, allowing you to switch your adapter as needed without having to purchase a new microphone. Compatible with all leading wireless mic solutions, this microphone is a sound investment for superior audio quality.
