DPA Microphones 4166-OP-F-B03-LE CORE+ Omni Flex Earset Mic (Black)

Highly Versatile and Discreet Omni Earset Microphone
The DPA Microphones 4166 CORE+ Omni Flex Earset Mic is designed for professionals who need high-performance audio capture with a discreet and comfortable fit. Whether you're performing on stage, presenting at a conference, or broadcasting live, this earset mic provides clear and detailed sound, making it ideal for speakers, actors, and performers who demand high-quality audio without the bulky appearance of traditional microphones. The microphone’s lightweight design and flexible boom make it perfect for use in demanding environments where comfort, durability, and top-notch audio clarity are a must.

CORE+ Technology for Unmatched Sound Clarity
At the heart of the 4166 CORE+ is DPA’s advanced CORE+ technology. This innovation allows the microphone to produce crystal-clear, distortion-free sound across a wide range of audio levels. The 4166 can handle sound pressure levels (SPL) up to 134 dB RMS and 137 dB peak without distortion, making it ideal for applications where high-intensity sound is a concern. With CORE+ you get a microphone that provides a natural, transparent sound with more clarity and detail, ensuring that every word is heard with precision.

Omnidirectional Pickup for Consistent Audio
Thanks to its omnidirectional pickup pattern, the 4166 captures sound from all directions, ensuring that the audio remains consistent regardless of the speaker’s movements. This makes it especially useful for active performers or presenters who need a microphone that can follow them as they move around the stage or room. The omni pattern also helps to reduce handling noise and minimize vocal plosives, delivering clearer and more intelligible speech, whether the speaker is speaking directly into the mic or slightly off-axis.

Customizable High-Frequency Response
With two interchangeable boost grids included, the 4166 allows you to customize its high-frequency response to suit your needs. The Soft-Boost Grid provides a mild 3 dB boost in the 8-20 kHz range, enhancing the microphone's clarity without being overly bright. Alternatively, the High-Boost Grid gives a more pronounced 10 dB boost at around 12 kHz, ideal for applications where extra top-end presence is required. These grids are crafted from scratch-resistant anodized stainless steel, ensuring durability while offering easy removal for cleaning and replacement.

Modular System with Reliable Connectivity
Equipped with DPA’s secure MicroLock system, the 4166 connects seamlessly to a variety of wireless transmitters. The microphone comes with a 3-pin LEMO connector, compatible with many industry-standard wireless systems like Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, and Wisycom. The modular design also means you can swap out cables or connectors quickly if needed, allowing for quick maintenance without replacing the entire microphone. This flexibility ensures that your microphone is always ready to perform, no matter the situation.

Durable and Moisture-Resistant Design
The DPA 4166 is engineered to withstand harsh environments, with an IP58 certification for dust and moisture resistance. This makes the microphone a great choice for use in live performances, conferences, or outdoor events where environmental factors might impact performance. Additionally, the microphone’s 110mm boom arm is both flexible and sturdy, while the Kevlar-reinforced cable ensures long-term durability, even under rigorous use. This tough construction ensures that the 4166 can handle the daily wear and tear of professional use without compromising on sound quality.
