Features:
Heavy-Duty Lavalier Microphone for Broadcast, Theater, and Live Events
The DPA 4661 CORE+ Heavy-Duty Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone is designed for professionals who need a rugged and high-performing mic for loud environments. Featuring a low-sensitivity condenser capsule, this lavalier is built to handle high SPL sources such as powerful vocalists, energetic speakers, and dynamic performances without distortion. Whether used in live theater, film production, or professional broadcasting, the 4661 CORE+ ensures crystal-clear and natural sound while maintaining a discreet and durable design.
Rugged Construction for Demanding Environments
Designed for long-term professional use, the 4661 CORE+ is built with a stainless-steel housing and a reinforced 2.2mm cable that resists wear and tear. The heavy-duty strain relief enhances durability, ensuring the microphone withstands the rigors of live performance and outdoor use. Additionally, the IP58-rated dust and moisture resistance makes it a reliable option for high-intensity applications, from stage performances to field recordings in challenging conditions.
CORE+ Technology for High-Quality Audio Capture
With DPA’s CORE+ technology, this microphone offers an extended dynamic range while minimizing distortion, even at extreme sound pressure levels. With an SPL rating of up to 134 dB RMS and a peak handling of 137 dB before noticeable distortion, the 4661 CORE+ provides a balanced and accurate sound profile. Whether capturing dialogue, vocals, or instruments, this microphone ensures pristine audio reproduction with increased clarity and reduced noise.
Interchangeable Grids for Customized High-Frequency Response
The 4661 CORE+ includes two interchangeable capsule protection grids to fine-tune the microphone’s frequency response. The Soft-Boost Grid provides a subtle 3 dB enhancement in the 8 to 20 kHz range for a more natural tone, while the High-Boost Grid delivers a pronounced 10 dB increase around 12 kHz, making it ideal for chest placement or situations requiring more presence in the upper frequencies. Both grids are constructed from durable, scratch-resistant anodized stainless steel and can be easily swapped to suit different applications.
Secure and Adaptable MicroLock Connector with LEMO 3-Pin Adapter
The modular design of the 4661 CORE+ includes DPA’s MicroLock connector system, ensuring a secure and reliable connection to wireless systems. This version features a 3-pin LEMO adapter, making it directly compatible with Lectrosonics SSM, Sennheiser SK, and Wisycom MTP transmitters. The MicroLock system is also fully backward-compatible with MicroDot connections, allowing flexibility when switching between different wireless setups.
Omnidirectional Pickup Pattern for Consistent Audio Capture
The forgiving omnidirectional polar pattern of the 4661 CORE+ ensures even sound capture from all directions. This pickup design minimizes handling noise and reduces plosive distortion, making it an excellent choice for use on-stage, in interviews, or as a hidden mic in film and TV production. Even when talent moves or turns away from the microphone, the omnidirectional pattern provides consistent and clear audio.
