An exceptional blend of superior sound quality and ergonomic design, the d:fine CORE 4166 Slim Flex Omnidirectional Earset Microphone with MicroDot Connector and 110mm Boom in a subtle brown hue is a testament to DPA's commitment to audio excellence. This lightweight, flexible earset system is equipped with the renowned d:fine 4066 Omnidirectional Capsule, delivering clean, transparent sound with ample headroom.
The microphone's condenser capsule, identical to the one found in the d:fine 4066, is attached to an interchangeable boom arm, offering versatility and adaptability. The d:fine 4166 Omnidirectional Earset Microphone stands out in the range for its accurate, natural voice intelligibility and high SPL capabilities, allowing users to speak or sing without any hint of distortion.
Available in both earset and headset variants, this microphone caters to a wide range of applications. The earset version is ideal for quick and easy miking, such as in conference settings, while the headset version provides a secure fit for active performance situations.
Designed with user comfort in mind, this microphone adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, mounting securely while remaining virtually invisible. The boom and ear hook can be easily rotated, allowing for use on either the left or right ear. The MicroDot connector separates the cable from the microphone boom, facilitating quick cable or wireless connector replacements.
The d:fine CORE 4166 Slim Flex Omnidirectional Earset Microphone is powered by CORE by DPA technology, which minimizes distortion and enhances clarity, regardless of the volume. This microphone boasts a 14 dB increase in dynamic range, delivering an open and clear sound that goes beyond what the specifications reveal.
All CORE by DPA microphones, including this model, are IP58 certified, ensuring durability through water-repellant nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm.
The omnidirectional nature of this microphone allows it to pick up sound equally from all directions, resulting in extremely natural and realistic audio. Despite the potential for feedback in live situations, the close-to-source use, equal frequency response, and high sound pressure level handling make this microphone a versatile addition to any audio toolbox.
The d:fine CORE 4166 Slim Flex Omnidirectional Earset Microphone also features an adapter system for wireless systems, providing flexibility and cost-effectiveness. This system allows the microphone to work with all leading wireless mic solutions, including Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom, and more, without any loss or change in sound quality.
