Sound your best defy the elements. Shure DuraPlex microphones have been designed to perform to the highest standards in the harshest conditions. Whether its film theatre or fitness the DuraPlex DL4 lavalier will deliver fault-free audio and out-last the competition a hundred times over. Tested tested and tested again.
DuraPlex microphones have been painstakingly developed to ensure an IP57 certification rating. This means the tiny condenser capsule will always sound crystal clear even when immersed in dust dirt sweat or water. Thanks to the reinforced spiral design the cable is immune from fatal connection issues that can occur after heavy use. No matter what the situation your words will never get lost again.
Sound size and strength – all without compromise With most microphones great sound typically means sacrificing size or durability. But that’s where DuraPlex is different… By using a 1mm MEMS condenser (that utilises a chip instead of a diaphragm) DuraPlex is able to deliver a big sound from just a few tiny components. Whilst the absence of a moving diaphragm makes it far less prone to disruption from debris and moisture. An omnidirectional pickup pattern ensures an open and natural character and the full range frequency response provides the detail needed to meet the highest standards in professional audio. This is premium sound in a tiny tough package.
Advanced Plex cable A microphone is only as reliable as the cable it is connected to. Thankfully the 1.6 mm Plex cable (first introduced with the award-winning TwinPlex range) is as robust as it can get – ensuring flawless signal transfer from lavalier to bodypack. To simulate years of intense use the ultra-thin cable was flexed stretched and pulled to the absolute limit at Shures development facility. The result – not a single sign of wear and tear. Plex cables simply dont misshape kink or split – which makes them super reliable and always easy to fit. Whats more because this is a medical-grade cable it will never dry out never crack and never deteriorate from chemical or water exposure. Which means it can be customised with theatre paints and polishes and washed down afterwards.
Accessories for any scenario The DuraPlex DL4 lavalier comes with an assortment of useful accessories to help you get the most out of your microphone. A presence cap provides additional vocal clarity. When attached it adds a 3-4 dB boost near 10 kHz – ideal if your lavalier is concealed under layers of clothing. There are also two windshields – foam and snap-fit – to ensure a clean sound in hostile locations. Along with tie clips and a sticky mount you have everything you need to fit your lav correctly. Crucially the TQG locking collar guarantees a completely fixed connection between your lavalier and bodypack. For total peace of mind during vigorous performances or fitness applications.
