DPA Microphones 6061-OC-U-B03 CORE Omni Lavalier Microphone (Black)

High-Performance Lavalier Microphone for Stage and Broadcast
The DPA 6061 CORE is a subminiature, moisture-resistant lavalier microphone designed for professionals in broadcast, theater, and live performance settings. With its 3mm omnidirectional electret-condenser capsule, this mic captures speech and vocals with exceptional clarity while remaining discreet and easy to conceal in clothing or costumes. This version features a 3-pin LEMO connector, making it compatible with select Lectrosonics, Sennheiser, and Wisycom wireless systems.

CORE Technology for Exceptional Sound Clarity
DPA’s CORE technology enhances dynamic range and minimizes distortion, ensuring a transparent, natural sound. Despite its compact size, the 6061 CORE microphone delivers the same award-winning sonic performance as DPA’s larger capsules. It maintains consistent audio quality across the full 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range, making it an excellent choice for both spoken word and vocal performances.

Engineered for Loud Speech and Vocals
With a maximum SPL handling of 144 dB, this version of the 6061 CORE is optimized for loud speakers, presenters, and performers. Its low-sensitivity capsule prevents distortion at high sound pressure levels, making it ideal for high-energy stage productions, dynamic presentations, and musical performances. The included soft-boost grid adds a subtle 4 dB presence boost between 8 to 20 kHz, ensuring speech remains crisp and intelligible.

Reliable Construction for Demanding Environments
Built with a stainless steel housing and a PVD coating, the 6061 CORE is impact-resistant, abrasion-resistant, and capable of withstanding extreme temperatures. Its IP58 certification ensures protection against dust and moisture, making it a reliable choice for indoor and outdoor applications. The rugged 5.9-foot cable is reinforced with Kevlar strain relief to endure frequent bending and movement.

Modular Design with Wireless Compatibility
This version of the 6061 CORE features a Microdot output and a 3-pin LEMO adapter, allowing seamless integration with Lectrosonics, Sennheiser SK, and Wisycom MTP wireless transmitters. The modular system supports a variety of wireless adapters (available separately), making it adaptable for different audio setups.

Optional XLR Adapter for Wired Applications
For wired applications, the separately available DPA DAD6001 adapter converts the Microdot connector to a standard 3-pin XLR, allowing the mic to be powered by 12V or 48V phantom power. This makes the 6061 CORE a flexible choice for both wireless and wired recording environments.
