It combines the legendary sound quality of the 4088 Directional Capsule with the flexibility and convenience of the d:fine Headset system. This makes it an ideal choice for both spoken word and vocal performance applications.

The microphone's directional capabilities allow it to pick up sound from a specific direction while rejecting noise from other directions.

The microphone also features a flexible adapter system that fits most professional wireless systems, adding to its versatility. The connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, allowing for quick and easy replacement of broken cables or wireless connectors.

The d:fine CORE 4288 is also resistant to humidity, thanks to its water-repellant nano-coating and hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier at the core of the mic. This ensures that the microphone delivers consistent performance even in challenging conditions.

In conclusion, the d:fine CORE 4288 Round Directional Flex Two-Ear Headset Microphone is a high-quality, durable, and versatile audio tool that delivers professional-grade sound clarity.
