DPA MICROPHONES - Headworn and Earset

CORE+ is an advance in DPA microphone design that neutralizes distortion across the entire dynamic range of the microphone, making any residual distortion imperceptible to the naked ear and virtually unmeasurable. Removing these remnants of distortion allows sound engineers to capture audio clarity more easily and efficiently, so they can shape the listening experience for the audience. CORE+ microphones have been designed for use in theatre, film, live and studio conditions and feature either fixed termination or modular termination via DPA's MicroLock adapter.

4066 CORE+ Omnidirectional, headset

Available in black, brown, and beige finishes and standard or small sizes, 4066 CORE+ headset microphone has an pre-polarised omnidirectional capsule and dual-ear supports. This microphone offers clean and transparent sound quality with lots of headroom, and has been designed for use by broadcasters, in theatres, or in lecture halls. The microphone can be terminated with MicroLock connector, compatible with MicroLock adapters; or fixed type termination of TA4F, 3.5mm locking jack, or 3-pin Lemo. The microphone has a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz, dynamic range of 111dB typical, a maximum SPL of 144dB with a nominal sensitivity of 6mV/Pa, and a THD of 133dB SPL RMS, 136dB peak at less than 0.5%. Weight: 14g. Ordering note: standard size fits 'most adult-sized heads'; small is more suited to children.

4088 CORE+ Directional, headset

Available in black, brown, or beige finish, 4088 CORE+ headworn microphone has an directional, cardioid capsule and dual-ear supports. This microphone offers provides excellent off-axis rejection in high-SPL situations. The microphone can be terminated with MicroLock connector, compatible with MicroLock adapters; or fixed type termination of TA4F, 3.5mm locking jack, or 3-pin Lemo. 4088 CORE+ has a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz, dynamic range of 116dB typical, a maximum SPL of 147dB with a nominal sensitivity of 6mV/Pa, and a THD of 137dB SPL RMS, 140dB peak at less than 0.5%. Weight: 14g. Ordering note: standard size fits 'most adult-sized heads'; small is more suited to children.

4166 CORE+ Omnidirectional, headset/earset

This microphone is available in black, brown, or beige and as headset configurations with either dual or single ear-rests. Both configurations offer boom arm lengths of 110mm, 90mm, or 40mm. The omnidirectional pre-polarised condenser capsule of the 4166 CORE+ has the audio properties of the 4066 CORE+ except that the capsule is of slimline proportions as opposed to the cylindrical properties of the 4066 CORE+.

4188 CORE+ Directional, headset/earset

This directional headworn microphone is available in black, brown, or beige and as headset configurations with either dual or single ear-rests. Both configurations offer various boom arm lengths of 120mm or 100mm. The cardioid, directional pre-polarised condenser capsule of the DPA 4188 CORE+ has the audio properties of the 4088 CORE+, however the capsule is of slimline proportions as opposed to the cylindrical properties of the 4088 CORE+.

DPA’s CORE 6000 series headworn microphones feature their ‘smallest ever’ microphone capsule. Designed for use in pro audio markets such as broadcast, theatre and film, the 6000 series sub-miniature microphones are 3mm in diameter, ‘two millimetres smaller than the DPA’s existing 4000 series’ microphones.

The CORE technology used in the capsules provides a more defined sound by minimising distortion and expanding the dynamic range. Although originally designed for use with wireless systems in theatre, television and close-positioned instrument applications, the omnidirectional capsules also use ‘hermetic sealing’ and a ‘nano coating’ to provide an IP rating of 58 – making the microphones applicable to on field sports where moisture from the body or atmosphere are unavoidable.

6066 CORE Omnidirectional, dual-ear support

Available in black, beige, or brown the 6066 CORE has a dual-ear design with ‘3-point gripping system’ which utilises support on the ear, behind the ear, and under the ear, ‘gently pressing inward’ to sit more securely around the ear as well as making more ergonomic and comfortable for longer periods of use. The boom are is 130mm in length and can be adjusted in length as well as pivoted up and down to ensure best positioning. The omnidirectional pre-polarised condenser capsule of the DPA 6066 CORE has a dynamic range of 102dB typical, and a maximum SPL of 144dB with a nominal sensitivity of 6mV/Pa. The mic capsule has a diameter of 3mm and has a fixed cable of 1.3m, giving for a total weight of 11g including connector.
