About DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4288 Directional Headset Mic, MicroDot, 120mm, Beige

Be at the forefront of audio excellence with the d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex Two-Ear Headset Microphone. This high-quality, professional-grade microphone is a product of DPA Microphones, a brand renowned for its superior audio equipment.

Designed for versatility, this durable headset microphone is ideal for a wide range of applications, from delivering powerful presentations to capturing the nuances of vocal performances. Its cardioid polar pattern ensures optimal sound capture by minimizing background noise and focusing on the sound source.

The d:fine CORE 4288 integrates the legendary 4088 Directional Capsule with the lightweight and flexible d:fine Headset system, offering accurate and natural voice intelligibility. Its high-SPL capabilities allow users to speak or sing into the mic without any hint of distortion, making it a reliable choice for demanding live performance environments.

This microphone is not only resistant to humidity but also features a flexible adapter system that fits most professional wireless systems. Its easy mounting to either the left or right ear and minimal visual impact make it a comfortable and discreet choice for users.

The d:fine CORE 4288 is available in both earset and headset variants. The earset variant is quick to put on, making it a convenient choice for conferences, while the headset variant provides a secure fit, ideal for active performance situations.

The microphone adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, ensuring a comfortable fit while maintaining a low profile. The connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, allowing for quick replacement of broken cables or wireless connectors.

The microphone's boom length of 120mm is designed to accommodate different applications and head sizes. It is positioned at the corner of the mouth to avoid "popping" and provide optimal sound capture.

The d:fine CORE 4288 Directional Earset boasts a 14 dB increase in dynamic range, delivering an open and clear sound. It is IP58 certified, featuring water-repellant nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm for enhanced durability.

The cardioid microphone's "heart-shaped" polar pattern ensures the most sensitivity at the front and least sensitivity from the sides and back. This unique DPA capsule technique reduces the sensitivity to off-axis sounds, offering perfect sound stages.

The adapter system provides flexibility, allowing you to switch between different wireless systems without compromising on sound quality. The d:fine CORE 4288 is compatible with all leading wireless mic solutions, including Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom, and more.
