About DPA Microphones d:fine CORE 4188 Directional Earset Mic, 3-Pin LEMO, 120mm,Brown

It epitomizes the fusion of DPA Microphones' precision engineering and the renowned 4088 Directional Capsule, resulting in the d:fine CORE 4188 Slim Directional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone. This professional-grade microphone is meticulously designed for vocalists and speakers who demand impeccable audio quality and intelligibility. With its high-SPL capabilities, the d:fine 4188 ensures that your voice remains clear and distortion-free, whether you're delivering a powerful speech or hitting the high notes in a vocal performance.

Crafted for durability and versatility, this slim and discreet earset microphone is engineered to withstand the rigors of live performances and professional environments. Its brown, 120mm boom is tailored for optimal placement near the corner of the mouth, ensuring a natural sound with minimal proximity effect and a significant reduction in background noise and feedback.

The d:fine 4188's cardioid polar pattern excels in off-axis rejection, capturing the speaker's or singer's voice with precision while suppressing unwanted ambient sounds. This directional characteristic is further enhanced by the microphone's CORE technology, which extends the dynamic range and delivers a more open, transparent sound.

Ergonomically designed for comfort, the microphone can be easily adjusted to fit any ear size and head shape, ensuring a secure fit and minimal visual presence. The flexible design allows for quick mounting on either the left or right ear, making it a go-to choice for situations requiring rapid microphone deployment, such as conferences or live events.

The microphone's resistance to humidity is fortified by its IP58 certification, which includes a water-repellent nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm, ensuring consistent performance in any climate.

The d:fine CORE 4188 is compatible with a wide array of professional wireless systems, thanks to its adaptable 3-pin LEMO connector. This flexibility is a testament to DPA's commitment to providing long-term value and ease of integration into existing audio setups.

Whether you're a performing artist, a corporate speaker, or a production professional, the d:fine CORE 4188 Slim Directional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone stands as a testament to DPA's legacy of audio excellence, offering a reliable, high-quality solution for your audio capture needs.
