DPA Microphones 4266-OP-F-C03-MH 4266 CORE+ Omni Flex Headset Mic (Brown)

Broadcast-Ready Headset Microphone for Voice Clarity and Comfort

The DPA 4266 CORE+ Omnidirectional Flex Headset Microphone with a 90mm boom and 3-pin LEMO adapter offers a lightweight, dual-ear solution for professionals who require excellent vocal reproduction and a secure, stable fit. Combining DPA’s respected 4066 microphone capsule with their high-performance CORE+ amplifier, this headset captures nuanced speech with clarity and minimal distortion. Its discreet brown color makes it suitable for live broadcast, theater, public speaking, and on-camera work where visibility needs to be low and reliability needs to be high.

Dual-Ear Design for Stability in Live Performance and Broadcast Settings

This dual-ear configuration ensures the microphone stays securely in place during extended performances, movement, or intense presentations. The frame adjusts to different head shapes and sizes while keeping the mic boom exactly where you want it. The 90mm boom length provides precise positioning for accurate voice pickup without being overly intrusive. The lightweight headset rests comfortably, making it ideal for extended use on stage, in studios, or during long broadcasts.

CORE+ Amplifier Delivers Clear, Distortion-Free Audio at High SPLs

The built-in CORE+ amplifier ensures consistent audio reproduction across dynamic vocal ranges. This microphone handles up to 134 dB RMS and 137 dB peak SPL without exceeding 1% distortion, and can push to 144 dB with just 10% distortion. That means even in high-energy environments or with loud vocal delivery, the 4266 CORE+ maintains clean, intelligible output without signal clipping or degradation—ideal for performers, speakers, and broadcast professionals.

Omnidirectional Capsule Captures Natural Sound with Reliable Consistency

Featuring an omnidirectional pickup pattern, this mic captures sound evenly from all directions, ensuring your voice remains consistent even when you turn your head or change position. The forgiving polar pattern provides a natural tonal balance and helps reduce plosives, wind noise, and unintended variations in volume. Whether used in a lecture, musical, or live interview, this mic delivers consistent voice clarity without requiring constant repositioning.

Compatible with LEMO 3-Pin Wireless Transmitters for Versatile Use

Outfitted with a MicroDot connector and a 3-pin LEMO adapter, the 4266 works seamlessly with Lectrosonics transmitters such as the SSM and DBu, as well as Sennheiser SK series and Wisycom MTP units. The modular design supports quick cable swaps and allows for integration with a wide range of wireless systems by simply switching the adapter, making this mic a versatile and budget-conscious tool across different setups.

High-Frequency Boost Options Tailor Your Vocal Presence

This headset includes two interchangeable frequency grids for tonal customization. The Soft-Boost grid enhances high-end presence with a 3 dB lift between 8–20 kHz, perfect for subtle vocal lift. The High-Boost grid delivers a more pronounced 10 dB boost around 12 kHz, adding extra brightness for those needing more clarity in the mix. Both grids are made from anodized stainless steel and are easy to detach, clean, and reapply depending on the application.

Built for Harsh Environments with Moisture-Resistant Design

With IP58 certification, the 4266 headset is built to withstand the elements. Its double-vent protection system helps guard against dust and moisture, making it a strong candidate for outdoor use or high-intensity environments. The 4.1-foot Kevlar-reinforced cable withstands repeated bending, pulling, and movement—ensuring long-term durability whether you’re on set, on stage, or in the studio.
