DPA 4088 CORE+ Directional Headset Microphone

The classic DPA 4088 CORE+ Directional Headset Microphone is the industry standard in professional headset mics. It offers an open and natural sound making it ideal for both spoken word and vocal performance applications. DPA 4088 CORE+ features Pristine audio quality with CORE+ technology Lightweight and flexible Easy mounting to the left or right Resistant to humidity Flexible adapter system fits most professional wireless systems The DPA 4088 CORE+ provides excellent off-axis rejection in high Sound Pressure Level situations. It efficiently suppresses distant sound sources making it perfect for demanding live performance environments where background noise and feedback are concerns. In high-SPL events, or when feedback is a concern, this microphone will tackle these challenges with ease. The bass response is designed for optimal linearity at 2-3 cm (1 inch) from the sound source. This means that the bass roll-off will be relatively prominent at a greater distance - a paramount factor when it comes to rejection of background noise and in the fight to avoid feedback.
