DPA 4071 CORE Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone, Loud SPL & Presence Boost

The DPA CORE 4071 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone (with Loud SPL & Presence Boost) is similar to the CORE 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, but its sensitivity has been adjusted to accommodate higher sound pressure levels (SPLs) and includes an acoustically created boost in the higher frequencies, ideal for less than favourable placement positions.

The Microphone has an extended ingress tube giving a 5dB boost in the 4-6kHz range . With the correct power source, the microphone can handle sound pressure levels (SPLs) up to 135 dB before clipping occurs.

The CORE 4071 is available in black only.

Product Description

Now in its next evolution, the DPA CORE 4071 from the CORE 4060 series of Miniature Omnidirectional Microphones brings extra clarity and detail to live speech and vocals, further improving on an industry standard tool. The DPA Lavalier series is the world’s leading Microphone for speech and vocal performance and has become the industry standard microphone in live theatre and broadcast.

The DPA CORE 4071 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone was developed to withstand even the toughest of conditions in live performance, containing a 5.4 mm diameter pre-polarized condenser element with a vertical diaphragm.

The DPA CORE 4071 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone is an omnidirectional microphone has sensitivity at all angles – which means it’s capable picking up sound equally from all directions.

A double vent protection system makes the Microphone greatly resistant to humidity and sweat, whilst its Kevlar-reinforced cable relief can withstand constant every-day twists, bends and pulls of any live performance. ­­Adding further flexibility, the microphone can be configured to run easily and effortlessly with a huge range of the industry’s preferred wireless systems, but if you prefer, the mics is available with an XLR adapter to run via a wired system.
