DPA 4660 Heavy Duty Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone

Built for jobs where security matters more than size, the DPA 4660 is a heavy duty omnidirectional lavalier microphone. It has a stainless steel housing, a heavy-duty cable relief, and a thick 2.2 mm (0.09 in) cable.

This is the black 4660 CORE with a MicroDot connector, made for normal sound levels up to 134 dB SPL peak. Its accurate omni pattern needs no aiming and captures the nuances of speech. It also suits high-end ambient recording where space is tight or the mic has to stay hidden.

The Kevlar-reinforced cable and strain relief stand up to constant twisting, bending, and pulling, and DPA’s Double Vent Protection System keeps out humidity and sweat. Two anodized stainless steel grids come with the mic: the Soft Boost Grid adds 3 dB at 8 to 20 kHz, and the High Boost Grid adds 10 dB around 12 kHz. Both detach to be wiped clean of sweat, makeup, and dust.

The MicroDot connector takes DPA’s adapters for most professional wireless systems.
