DPA 4661

Description

DPA d:screet LEGACY 4661 heavy duty omni-directional microphone, loud SPL

DPA d:screet 4061 heavy duty miniature omnidirectional microphone, lo-sens offers a very clean, detailed and natural sound quality. The d:screet heavy duty mic series contains our toughest miniature microphones. Made for situations where you require maximum security and where visual size of the mic is less important. The d:screet heavy duty mic series features a stainless steel housing, a heavy-duty cable relief and a thick 2.2mm cable.

The d:screet 4061 heavy duty miniature omnidirectional microphone, lo-sens was originally designed for use with wireless systems in theater, television and close-miked instrument applications. Because of its small size, it exhibits an exceedingly accurate omnidirectional pattern and therefore does not need to be aimed directly at the sound source to achieve quality pickup.

This microphone is acoustically identical to the d:screet 4060 heavy duty miniature omnidirectional microphone, hi-sens, but the sensitivity is adjusted to match some of the more sensitive transmitters on the market.

It is up to the user to decide on the correct placement to achieve the desired timbre. The mic can handle 144dB peak before clipping, allowing the microphone to be used even for snare drums, guitar/bass speaker cabinets or other high SPL sound sources.

Flexible adapter system: the adapters 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 adapter, instead of incurring the cost of a whole new microphone. And when you make the switch, you won’t hear any loss or change in sound quality.
