From the seller
DPA d:fine™ FIO B00 Black Single-Ear Omnidirectional Headset Microphone [Tested Working - Waveform Analysed on Computer]~ with 90mm Boom & MicroDot Connector
~ & all in Original Stout Padded Zip Case
Unsure why this is referred to as a "Headset" microphone rather than an "Earset" but that is what the leaflet states.
Pristine sound and durability. High-quality condenser omni-directional headworn mic for vocal and speech applications.
Condition Note: Classsed as "Used" (in working order with age-related wear).

FEATURES
- Pristine audio quality
- Lightweight and flexible
- Easy single ear mounting to the left or right
- Minimal visual impact
- Resistant to humidity
- Flexible adaptor fits most professional wireless systems
This d:fine microphone has been ergonomically designed to fit easily and seamlessly. It will adjust to fit any ear size and head shape while mounting securely and hardly visible. Just by rotating the boom and the earhook, the microphone can be moved from left to right ear, or into the optimum position.
Staying true to the DPA legacy, d:fine offers accurate, natural voice intelligibility and very high SPL capabilities - users can both speak and sing into the mic with no hint of distortion. Intensive protection against pop and wind noise is integrated in the microphone design and windscreens are included.
ACCESSORIES
The d:fine microphone with boom, earhook, and cable is delivered in a neat, roadworthy box with room for accessories like transmitters and batteries (the DPA accessory line includes power supplies and adapters or cables with fixed connectors i.e. MicroDot, 3-pin Lemo, TA4F Mini-XLR, Mini-Jack).
Accessories included:
- Make-up and moisture filter pre-mounted on the mic
- Color coded identification rings
- Make-up cover/ capsule protection cap (red)
- Three windscreens
The microphone’s sensitivity is 6 mV/Pa. This matches the level of the human voice to the general input sensitivity of most wireless transmitters. If powered correctly, the microphone will be able to handle very high sound pressure levels up to 144 dB SPL before clipping occurs.

REASONS FOR CHOOSING AN OMNI - EVEN IF YOU WANT A CARDOID
An omnidirectional microphone has sensitivity at all angles – in principle picking up sound equally from all directions. This gives you extremely natural and realistic sound compared to a cardioid mic. Omni mics are often used for picking up ambient sounds, as well as miking a large sound source such as a choir in a recording situation. Unfortunately, due to their pickup pattern, omnis can also produce a lot of feedback in live situations.
Nonetheless, we recommend that you try a DPA omni first because, when used close to the sound source, the equal frequency response makes these mics a flexible addition in your audio toolbox. It will often give a more natural sound, it can handle extremely high sound pressure levels, it does not suffer from proximity effect and is not as sensitive to wind, pop or handling noise.
ADAPTOR SYSTEM FOR TERMINATION (AUDIO OUT)
The adaptors for wireless systems give you flexible, simple and affordable possibilities. You are no longer bound to one wireless system. As circumstances change, you can just switch your adaptor, instead of incurring the cost of a completely new microphone. When you make the…
