4288 CORE Directional Flex Headset Mic, 120 mm Boom, Beige, MicroDot

Perfect Sound in a Compact Design – the DPA 4288 CORE Headset Microphone

The 4288 CORE Directional Headset Microphone combines the legendary sound of the 4088 directional capsule with a lightweight and ergonomic design. Perfect for speeches, singing, and professional stage use, it delivers crystal-clear voice reproduction without distortion, even at high SPL levels.

Crystal Clear Sound Quality – Precision in Every Word

With its cardioid directional capsule, the 4288 CORE microphone offers excellent speech intelligibility and effectively eliminates background noise. It’s ideal for noisy environments where ambient sounds could interfere – this microphone efficiently suppresses those sounds, focusing on the speaker’s voice. It offers a wide frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, ensuring natural sound without compromise.

Comfort and Versatility – A Microphone That Adapts to You

Weighing only 10 g, the 4288 CORE is exceptionally comfortable to wear. The flexible design adapts to different ear sizes and head shapes. The 120 mm boom can be mounted on either the left or right side, offering additional convenience. Its ergonomic design provides maximum comfort even during extended use, and the microphone is nearly invisible, minimizing its visual impact during performances.

Reliable in Challenging Conditions – Moisture Resistance and Durability

The DPA 4288 CORE is designed for demanding stage environments. With moisture resistance up to 90% RH, it performs excellently in humid environments or during intense performances. Its robust build and the ability to quickly replace the cable thanks to the MicroDot connector ensure that it remains a reliable and long-lasting piece of equipment.

Cutting-Edge Technology – No Distortion or Feedback

The 4288 CORE microphone features high resistance to distortion. The maximum SPL of 144 dB ensures that both speech and singing are clear, without the risk of overloading. Its optimized bass response handles feedback and "popping" sounds effectively, particularly when the capsule is placed near, but not directly in front of the mouth.
