Description

The DPA 4080 CORE+ Cardioid Lavalier Microphone (Black, MicroLock) – model 4080-DP-D-B90 – is a precision-engineered microphone tailored for professional speech applications where vocal clarity, discretion, and control over ambient noise are essential. Its cardioid pickup pattern offers focused directionality, capturing the speaker's voice with excellent isolation while rejecting sound from the sides and rear. This makes it a top choice for use in conference settings, broadcast environments, and live presentations, especially where background noise or multiple speakers are present.

Built with CORE+ technology, the 4080 delivers a transparent, low-distortion signal across a wide dynamic range, handling SPL levels up to 134 dB peak with ease. A subtle 4 dB presence boost is acoustically tailored into the mic’s response to enhance speech intelligibility when placed on the chest. The MicroLock connector provides a secure and robust connection point, compatible with a range of DPA adapters, giving users flexibility across multiple wireless systems. It comes pre-mounted on a shock-isolated clip that can be positioned for left or right shirt placement, along with both black and white pop filters to reduce plosives and match different clothing. With IP58-rated resistance to dust and moisture, a Kevlar-reinforced cable, and a slim, durable profile, the 4080 CORE+ MicroLock variant is built to deliver focused, high-quality speech capture in even the most demanding professional settings.
