DPA 4660 HEAVY DUTY OMNI MIC, NORMAL SPL
DPA Microphones developed the 4660 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone to withstand the very toughest conditions in live performance. It contains a 5.4 mm diameter pre-polarised condenser element with a vertical diaphragm, all mounted in a stainless steel housing.
The DPA CORE 4660 Heavy Duty Omni Mic is an omnidirectional microphone with sensitivity at all angles – which means it’s capable of picking up sound equally from all directions.
The microphone features a double vent protection system that significantly enhances its resistance to humidity and sweat. Its Kevlar-reinforced cable relief enables it to withstand the constant twists, bends, and pulls of any live performance.
Furthermore, the microphone easily configures to operate with a broad range of the industry's preferred wireless systems, providing additional flexibility. Alternatively, if you prefer a wired system, the mic is available with an XLR adapter.
All CORE by DPA Microphones are now IP58 Rated for water and dust ingress.
