When seeking professional, high-quality audio equipment, the d:fine CORE 4188 Slim Directional Flex One-Ear Earset Microphone is a top-tier choice. Crafted by the reputable DPA Microphones, this versatile and reliable microphone is designed to deliver superior sound quality for both spoken word and vocal performances.

This durable earset microphone features the legendary 4088 Directional Capsule, known for its accurate and natural voice intelligibility. It boasts high-SPL capabilities, allowing users to speak or sing into the mic without any distortion. The microphone's cardioid polar pattern efficiently suppresses distant sound sources, making it an ideal choice for demanding live performance environments where background noise and feedback are concerns.

The d:fine CORE 4188 microphone is lightweight and flexible, offering easy mounting to either the left or right ear. Its minimal visual impact and resistance to humidity make it a practical choice for various settings. The microphone's flexible adapter system is compatible with most professional wireless systems, providing you with a wide range of possibilities.

The microphone capsule is optimized for low distortion and humidity resistance. It's available as an earset or headset, both ergonomically designed to fit comfortably and easily. The microphone adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, mounting securely while remaining barely visible. The connector splits the cable from the microphone boom, allowing for quick swapping of broken cables or wireless connectors.

This microphone features two directional boom lengths to accommodate different applications and head sizes. The 120mm boom is designed for optimal placement at the corner of the mouth, helping to avoid "popping" sounds. This standard boom length fits most people.

The d:fine CORE 4188 microphone is enhanced with CORE by DPA technology, offering a 14 dB increase in dynamic range. This technology delivers an even more open and clear sound, ensuring your audio is captured with the utmost clarity. All CORE by DPA microphones are IP58 certified, featuring water-repellant nano-coating, hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier, and dual gold plating of the diaphragm for enhanced durability.

The cardioid polar pattern of this microphone minimizes sound pickup from the sides and back, providing a focused sound capture. This makes it an excellent choice for live stage performances or spoken-word events. The unique DPA capsule technique reduces sensitivity to off-axis sounds, offering perfect sound stages without colorization.

The d:fine CORE 4188 microphone's adapter system offers flexibility and affordability. It's compatible with all leading wireless mic solutions, protecting your investment in fantastic sound for years to come. Whether you're presenting at a conference or performing on stage, this microphone delivers the high-quality audio performance you need.
