The DPA 5006A Surround Microphone Kit comprises 5 matched 4006A microphones with a complete set of accessories packed in a high quality aluminium briefcase.
Used with your existing set up or with the S5 Surround/Decca Tree Mount, the 5006A gives you the ultimate in surround recording potential
Where to buyThe 4006 condenser microphones’ specification are within ±0.5 dB of each other both in sensitivity and frequency response to ensure perfect phase correlation – essential for surround multi-miking. This kit is designed to be used with the DPA S5 surround mount.
