About DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4166 Omni Headset Mic, MicroDot, 90mm Boom, Beige

Under the umbrella of professional audio equipment, the d:fine CORE 4166 Slim Flex Omnidirectional Headset Microphone stands out with its MicroDot Connector and 90mm Boom in a sleek beige color. This condenser microphone merges the iconic sound quality of the d:fine 4066 Omnidirectional Capsule with a feather-light and adaptable headset system.

Designed for effortless and quick adjustments, the d:fine 4166 microphone delivers a pristine, transparent sound quality with ample headroom. The capsule mirrors the type found in the d:fine 4066, but is uniquely attached to a replaceable boom arm. Like all microphones in the d:fine range, it offers precise, natural voice clarity and high SPL capabilities. It allows users to speak or sing into the microphone without any hint of distortion.

Available in earset (d:fine 4166) or headset (d:fine 4266) variants, this microphone caters to diverse needs. The earset version is perfect for quick and easy miking, such as in conferences, while the headset version provides a secure fit for active performance situations. Both versions are ergonomically designed for comfort and ease of use.

The d:fine 4166 microphone adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, mounts securely, and remains virtually invisible. By rotating the boom and the ear hook, the microphone can be easily used on either the left or the right ear. The MicroDot connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, allowing for quick replacement of broken cables or wireless connectors.

The microphone is powered by CORE by DPA technology, which minimizes distortion and enhances clarity and openness. From whispers to screams, the d:fine CORE 4166 microphone ensures a 14 dB increase in dynamic range.

All CORE by DPA microphones, including this one, 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 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 equal frequency response of this microphone when used close to the sound source makes it a versatile tool in your audio arsenal.

The d:fine CORE 4166 microphone's adapter system offers flexibility and affordability. It works with all leading wireless mic solutions, including Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom, and more. This unique adapter system by DPA Microphones safeguards your investment in superior sound for years to come.
