DPA Microphones 4066 CORE+ Omnidirectional Headset Microphone with MicroLock Connector (Small, Beige)

Featuring a winning combination of flexibility, ease of use, and outstanding sound quality, the small, beige 4066 CORE+ Omnidirectional Headset Microphone from DPA Microphones is designed for conferencing, theater, house of worship, and broadcasting applications. The CORE+ technology in the 4066 delivers a wide dynamic range and almost completely neutralizes distortion at SPLs up to 133 dB, helping to provide clean, crisp, and natural sonic performance, even on loud stages. Included are two interchangeable capsule protection grids that allow you to tailor the mic's high-frequency response for your environment or application.

The 4066 CORE+ features a double-vent protection system that works in tandem with a drop stopper and water-resistant materials in the mic to help prevent damage from humidity and moisture. The comfortable and secure dual-ear design offers an adjustable mic boom that can be worn on either the right or left side, depending on preference.

Adapters Available for Various Wireless Transmitters
The 4066 will work with a wide variety of wireless transmitters via separately available adapters. Simply choose the MicroLock adapter with the appropriate connector for your bodypack transmitter and you're good to go.

A Reliable Broadcast-Quality Headset with CORE+
Normal Headroom for Standard Speech
The 4066 CORE+ features a sensitive 5.4mm electret-condenser capsule designed for standard speech and vocal applications at levels up to 134 dB SPL RMS and 137 dB SPL peak before producing < 1% distortion. The mic can even handle up to 144 dB SPL with only 10% distortion, making it well suited to a variety of presenters and performers.

More Range, Less Distortion
Microphones with CORE+ provide even more clarity across the entire dynamic range, from low to high sound pressure levels. Miniature microphones with CORE+ provide unheard levels of openness. While CORE allows mics to handle higher SPLs without significant artifacts up to 1% THD, CORE+ eliminates those artifacts completely.

Omnidirectional Polar Pattern
The forgiving omnidirectional pickup pattern captures sound from all around the mic and provides a consistent frequency response, even for off-axis sound. This helps to supply clear, intelligible speech and vocals with consistent volume levels while reducing vocal plosives and handling noise.

Two Boost Grids Included to Tailor High Frequencies
The pre-fitted Soft-Boost Grid gives a 3 dB soft boost at 8 to 20 kHz range. Alternatively, the High-Boost Grid introduces a 10 dB boost around 12 kHz for applications where additional top-end high-frequencies are desired. Both grids are made of tough and scratch-resistant anodized stainless steel, allowing them to be detached and cleaned.

Dual-Ear Headset for Active Talent
Once placed on the performer, the headset microphone sits securely and unobtrusively close to the sound source and allows the user to move freely about without having to hold a microphone in the hand or have a lavalier mic clipped on the shirt. Headset mics remove the disadvantage of changing the color of the sound as the head moves around. This dual-ear model is ideal for more active situations, when secure mounting is required, as it sits snugly on the neck and is virtually invisible.

Tough, Moisture-Resistant Construction
Engineered with a double-vent protection system, the 4066 is certified IP58 for dust and moisture resistance. The rugged 3.9' cable is built with Kevlar strain relief to survive the constant twists, bends, and pulls that are part of everyday use in harsh environments.
