Description

The 4188-DP-F-F34-MH is a premium CORE+ Directional Flex Headset Microphone from DPA, designed for professionals who need discreet appearance, maximum vocal clarity, and reliable performance in high-pressure environments. This model features a 100 mm boom, a cardioid capsule, and comes in a beige finish with a Mini-Jack connector, making it a versatile fit for most popular wireless systems that accept this plug type.

Built around DPA’s enhanced CORE+ technology, this headset delivers increased clarity, reduced distortion, and an extended dynamic range. It combines the directional precision of the renowned 4088 capsule with a flexible, lightweight one-ear headset design that provides secure and comfortable wear, even during physically active presentations or performances. The cardioid pattern focuses on the speaker's voice while minimizing background noise, making it highly effective in environments with feedback risks or ambient sound, such as live events, theater, or corporate AV setups.

Its 100 mm boom is ergonomically optimized for ideal microphone placement at the corner of the mouth, avoiding plosives and ensuring a consistent audio pickup. The adjustable earhook fits securely on either ear and is nearly invisible at a distance, while the Mini-Jack connector offers compatibility with a wide range of wireless transmitters. With humidity resistance, robust build quality, and easy cable replacement, the 4188-DP-F-F34-MH is an exceptional solution for users who demand pristine sound and a dependable, low-profile mic in professional settings.
