DPA 4661 Heavy Duty Omni Loud SPL Lav Microphone - Black

About: DPA 4661 Heavy Duty Omni Loud SPL Lav Microphone - Black

4661 Heavy Duty Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Loud SPL

This omnidirectional condenser lavalier microphone is small in size, but mighty in flexibility. Due to its miniature size, it exhibits an exceptionally accurate omnidirectional pattern and therefore does not need to be aimed directly at the sound source to achieve quality pickup. The omnidirectional pattern also makes it less sensitive to handling noise as well as pop and wind noise.

Made for situations where you require maximum security and where the visual size of the mic is less important. The Heavy Duty Mic Series features a stainless steel housing, a heavy-duty cable relief and a thick 2.2 mm (0.09 in) cable. Our Heavy Duty microphones are a more robust version of the original lavalier mics they are based upon.

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.

The d:fine™, d:screet™ and d:vote™ series of miniature microphones work with all leading wireless mic solutions, such as Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, Shure, Sony, Wisycom, Zaxcom and many more. DPA Microphones’ ingenious adapter system is one of a kind in the industry. It protects your investment in fantastic sound for years to come.
