DPA Microphones recently upgraded its 4098 Gooseneck Microphone to include its CORE by DPA technology. With this update, the 4098 CORE mic will join DPA’s other CORE products in offering minimal distortion across the entire dynamic range, increasing audio clarity and openness and further enhancing DPA’s sound. Perfect for both podium and conference room mic’ing, the company says its DPA 4098 CORE is a solution for instances when high speech intelligibility is paramount.

With CORE by DPA technology, the 4098 CORE mics capture a wider dynamic range so that the 1 percent THD is now lifted with 8 decibels to 133 dB of sound pressure level.

The DPA 4098 CORE offers trouble-free installation with the most clear, transparent and natural sound available on the miniature mic market. The mic is capable of handling extremely high SPL before clipping, which enables it to deliver pristine speech intelligibility regardless of whether the speaker is loud or soft-toned. With a linear response, low distortion and dynamic range, DPA Microphones says the mics perform well in challenging environments.
