About DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4166 Omni Headset Mic, TA4F, 90mm Boom, Black

Bring professional-grade audio to your performances or conferences with the d:fine CORE 4166 Slim Flex Omnidirectional Headset Microphone. This high-quality condenser microphone merges the superior sound of the d:fine 4066 Omnidirectional Capsule with a flexible, lightweight headset system for optimal user comfort and audio excellence.

Designed for easy and quick adjustments, this microphone delivers clean, transparent sound quality with ample headroom. The capsule mirrors the type used in the d:fine 4066, but it's attached to an interchangeable boom arm for added versatility.

The d:fine 4166 Omnidirectional Headset Microphone stands out in the market for its accurate, natural voice intelligibility and high SPL capabilities. It's designed to handle both speech and singing without any distortion, ensuring clear and crisp audio at all times.

This microphone is available in two variants: earset (d:fine 4166) and headset (d:fine 4266). The earset variant is perfect for quick setup, making it an excellent choice for conferences. The headset variant, on the other hand, provides a secure fit, ideal for active performance situations.

Both variants are ergonomically designed for comfort and easy fit, adjusting to any ear size and head shape. The microphone mounts securely and is barely visible, ensuring minimal distraction during use. The boom and ear hook can be rotated for use on either the left or the right ear.

The hardwired TA4F connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, allowing for quick swapping of broken cables or wireless connectors. The microphone comes with three boom lengths (40mm, 90mm, and 110mm) to accommodate different applications and head sizes.

Equipped with CORE by DPA technology, this microphone minimizes distortion, delivering increased clarity and openness, regardless of the volume. The d:fine CORE 4166 Omnidirectional Headset Microphone boasts a 14 dB increase in dynamic range, offering an even more open and clear sound.

All CORE by DPA microphones, including this one, are IP58 certified, ensuring durability through water-repellant nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm.

The omnidirectional feature of this microphone ensures sensitivity at all angles, capturing sound equally from all directions for a natural and realistic audio experience. Despite the potential for feedback in live situations, the close-to-source use, equal frequency response, and ability to handle high sound pressure levels make this microphone a versatile tool in your audio arsenal.

The d:fine CORE 4166 Slim Flex Omnidirectional Headset Microphone also features an adapter system for wireless systems, offering flexibility and cost-effectiveness. This means you can switch your adapter as needed without compromising sound quality or investing in a new microphone. Compatible with all leading wireless mic solutions, this microphone is a testament to DPA Microphones' innovative approach to audio technology.
