I’d like to thank Nathan and the team at Wendy’s Broadcadst for all their help. They have been supplying me with custom cables, made to the highest standard over many year. The low profile connectors are hard to find, yet they normally ship the finished leads the day after ordering, often to studios or locations where I am filming and I’ve never had to ask for any adjustments or corrections; They are right first time, despite my requiring some unusual bespoke wiring. I’ve also benefited from real world advice about products and fault finding. Wendy’s Broadcast have made location sound far less stressful.
The d:screet CORE 6060 and 6061 Subminiature Microphones and the 6066 d:fine CORE Subminiature Headset Microphone are just three millimetres in diameter – two millimetres smaller than DPA’s existing 4000 series of miniature microphone products. All three incorporate the recently launched CORE by DPA amplifier technology that reduces distortion and increases dynamic range, while they may be small, they pack a powerful punch in terms of performance.
Looking to minimise distortion as well as increase the dynamic range (DPA measures this as the range between the noise floor and the point where the mic reaches 1% THD), or workable area, of its d:screet™ and d:fine™ lines of microphones, DPA developed this new amplifier to create an even clearer sound from the ‘highest of the highs’ to the ‘lowest of the lows.’ The dynamic range has been expanded in all of DPA’s ‘CORE’ miniature capsules.
When it comes to the technical specs, all three 6000 series capsules are omnidirectional and have a frequency range of 20 Hz – 20 kHz. The d:screet™ 6060 Lavalier has a noise floor of only 24 dB(A), while the d:screet 6061 Lavalier and d:fine™ 6066 Headset have noise floors of only 26 dB(A). This is similar to DPA’s existing 4000 series miniature mics. All three capsules are available in black and beige.
Stainless steel construction makes the mics in the 6000 series extremely durable. They can tolerate high temperatures and they’re resilient against impacts and resistant to abrasion. The subminiature mics use the same size cable as on DPA’s 5 mm mics. The cables are extremelty durable, do not become entangled and withstand rough pulls.
The new DPA CORE 6000 series omnidirectional microphones will also provide water and moisture resistance through nano coating and hermetic sealing of the sensitive electronics. The microphone is currently available in Black, Beige, Brown and White.
