10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY SCHEME

The product price includes 5 years' warranty and 30 day money back guarantee.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:

  • Warranty is extended to 10 years from the date of delivery.
  • Our Money Back guarantee is extended from 30 days to 60 days (terms apply after 30 days)
  • Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty
  • Claim 50% cash back on the cost of the policy after 10 years if it has not been used!
  • Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold
  • Loan or replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days
  • If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
  • The policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

DPA CORE+ 4099 Instrument Microphone, Piano Overview

View this description in Slovene

The DPA CORE+ 4099 Instrument Microphone, Piano is a stereo microphone system designed to capture the full detail and expression of your piano performance. Supplied as a matched pair with dedicated P-Clips, the microphones attach securely to the frame or rim of the piano, keeping them stable and visually discreet while you play.



Each microphone uses DPA’s CORE+ technology to reduce distortion across the full dynamic range. This ensures clean capture of quiet passages and loud peaks, without unwanted compression. The supercardioid polar pattern helps isolate the piano from ambient sound or stage spill, giving you focused, natural tone even in busy environments.



Positioning is made easy thanks to the flexible goosenecks and locking mounts. Whether you’re performing live or recording in the studio, this compact mic system offers professional-quality sound and a simple, secure setup.



Please Note: the DAD9099 and DAD9001 XLR adapters are sold separately. These are needed if you want to connect the microphones directly to XLR inputs such as a mixer or audio interface.

Accurate stereo capture for full-range piano sound

This CORE+ 4099 set includes two matched microphones, optimised for piano applications. The stereo configuration allows you to cover both ends of the keyboard evenly, capturing subtle dynamics and wide tonal range with accuracy. With CORE+ technology, harmonic distortion is reduced to an absolute minimum, even at high volume levels. The result is clean, balanced sound across the piano’s full register.

From delicate pianissimo lines to heavy chords and fortissimo attacks, the microphones deliver consistent tone with no added harshness or muddiness. This makes them ideal for classical piano, jazz sessions or amplified stage setups where clear, reliable pickup is essential.

Clip-on mounting keeps setup quick and tidy

Each microphone comes with a P-Clip mount designed specifically for piano use. The clips hold the mics securely to the frame or rim without damaging the finish, and keep them in the right position throughout the performance. Their slim profile ensures they stay out of the way of the lid and the pianist, and they can be adjusted quickly during soundcheck or setup.

The goosenecks provide approximately 140 mm of flexible reach, allowing you to fine-tune mic placement easily. Once locked in place with the two-step G-Mount system, the mics stay fixed and stable. This gives you repeatable results with minimal hassle between gigs or takes.

Minimises noise and captures a clean signal

Each mic features a supercardioid polar pattern that focuses tightly on the piano while rejecting sound from the sides and rear. This helps reduce bleed from nearby instruments, stage monitors or room reflections. Whether you're miking in a busy stage setup or a reflective space, your piano sound remains focused and clear.

A built-in shock-mount system reduces noise caused by vibrations or contact with the frame. The matte black Nextel finish prevents visual distraction under lights, making this setup well suited to professional stage environments as well as video recordings and broadcasts.

Flexible, durable and easy to integrate

This mic pair is lightweight but built for real-world use. It’s compact enough to fit into tight stage or studio spaces and strong enough to handle frequent setup and travel. The materials used are designed for long-term reliability, so you can trust the system to perform consistently night after night or take after take.

Each mic connects via DPA’s MicroLock connector, which keeps cables securely in place. The system also works with DPA’s range of adapters, making it easy to switch between wired XLR and wireless setups depending on your needs. For performers and engineers who need reliable stereo piano capture in a compact form, this is a smart, straightforward solution.
