About DPA Microphones d:fine Legacy 4066 Omni Headset Mic, 3-Pin LEMO, Small, Brown

Are you in search of a high-quality, professional-grade headset microphone that delivers pristine, transparent sound with ample headroom Look no further than the d:fine Legacy 4066 Omnidirectional Headset Microphone with 3-Pin LEMO Connector. This small, brown microphone has been the top choice for broadcasters, Broadway theaters, auditoriums, and lecture halls for years, thanks to its exceptional sound quality and robust durability.

The d:fine Legacy 4066 is renowned for its ability to work across a wide dynamic range while exhibiting low distortion across all sound pressure levels (SPLs). Its sensitivity of 6 mV/Pa perfectly matches the level of the human voice to the general input sensitivity of most wireless transmitters. When powered correctly, this microphone can handle high SPLs up to 144 dB before clipping occurs, ensuring your audio remains clear and distortion-free even in loud environments.

One of the standout features of this microphone is its omnidirectional polar pattern. This means it has sensitivity at all angles, picking up sound equally from all directions for a natural and realistic sound capture. This makes it an ideal choice for recording ambient sounds or miking large sound sources like choirs. While omnidirectional microphones can produce feedback in live situations, the d:fine Legacy 4066's close proximity to the sound source and equal frequency response make it a versatile addition to your audio toolbox.

Humidity, a common issue in theatrical applications, is no problem for this microphone. It's constructed with a double-vent protection system and a drop stopper on the microphone boom, and the materials inside the mic are water-resistant. These design elements make it highly resistant to failure due to humidity.

The d:fine Legacy 4066 also features a unique headset construction. You can detach the mic boom from the headset mount to switch it to either the left or right side and then reattach it. This flexibility extends to the microphone's modular adapter system, which fits most professional wireless systems. This means you're not tied to one wireless system and can switch your adapter as circumstances change, without incurring the cost of a new microphone or experiencing any loss or change in sound quality.

In conclusion, the d:fine Legacy 4066 Omnidirectional Headset Microphone with 3-Pin LEMO Connector is a reliable, versatile, and durable audio solution that delivers consistently clear and robust sound. Whether you're a broadcaster, a theater professional, or simply someone who values high-quality sound, this microphone is a worthy investment.
