Description

The brown 4166 CORE+ Slim Omnidirectional Flex Earset Microphone from DPA puts the sound of the 4066 omnidirectional capsule and CORE+ amplifier in a slim housing and combines it with a discreet and flexible single-ear earset. It can be used when talent needs to be mic'd quickly and easily, and its lightweight, comfortable design means the person wearing the microphone will barely notice its presence, making it well suited to conference, speech, broadcast, and live-performance applications.

The ergonomic 4166 easily adjusts to fit any ear size and head shape, while at the same time, it mounts securely and is hardly visible. By rotating the boom and the ear hook, the microphone can be used on either the left or the right ear. The modular design allows the connector cable to split from the microphone boom, making it easy to swap out broken cables and/or wireless connectors quickly and easily without having to replace the entire microphone. The standard-sized 110mm boom arm is also interchangeable.

Modular System Featuring MicroLock Connector with TA4F Adapter
Compatible Wireless Transmitters
  • Shure: Works with Shure transmitters equipped with a TA4M connector, including the AD1, ADX1, AXT100TA4M, BLX1, GLXD1, MXW1, PGXD1, QLXD1, SLX1, SLXD1, ULX1, and ULXD1. Also supports Line 6 and TOA transmitters.
  • The modular design allows you to adapt the 4166's MicroLock connector to a wide variety of transmitters simply by purchasing the compatible adapter—saving you the expense of buying another microphone.
MicroLock for Secure, Dependable Connections
  • Built to withstand the rigors of long-term everyday use, DPA's MicroLock system features an easy-to-use, secure, and wear-resistant locking connector specially engineered to minimize accidental disconnection and ensure reliable performance. The compact design is well suited to situations where space is limited and a visually discreet solution is preferred.
  • MicroLock is fully backwards compatible with the MicroDot connection; MicroLock parts can be assembled with MicroDot parts and function as if they were of the MicroDot type. Please note that the locking function is only available if both the male and female parts are MicroLock.
A Reliable Broadcast-Quality Earset Mic with CORE+
Normal Headroom for Standard Speech
The 4166 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.

Soft Boost for Speech Intelligibility
The 4166 features a built-in soft boost EQ that provides a 3 dB boost in the 8 to 15 kHz range for added presence to ensure clarity.

Low-Profile Earset Mic
Once placed on the performer, the earset 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. This single-ear earset provides a low-profile choice for presenters and performers looking for a visually discreet microphone solution.

Tough, Moisture-Resistant Construction
Engineered with a double-vent protection system, the 4166 is certified IP58 for dust and moisture resistance. The rugged 4.3' cable is built with Kevlar strain relief to survive the constant twists, bends, and pulls that are part of everyday use in harsh environments.
