It’s the small things in life that matter. This couldn’t be more accurate when it comes to headset and lavaliere microphone design, in particular how the headset adjusts, fits and sounds. DPA has been a market leader in this field for some time, notably pushing the boundaries as miniature and subminiature microphones have become smaller and smaller. In recent years, DPA has continued to refine its technologies to deliver impressive performance specifications, becoming a mainstay for broadcast, theatre, house of worship and conferencing.
Following demand, the two new models announced just last month are a culmination of these new technologies and current product solutions, rather than ground-up designs. The 4466 CORE Omnidirectional Headset Microphone and the 4488 CORE Directional Headset Microphone, combine DPA’s 4000 series 5mm capsules with CORE technology and the Red Dot award-winning headset mount. While many might now be familiar with these microphone capsules, their most advanced one-size-fits-all headset design has only been seen before on the 6066 Subminiature Headset Microphone.
