Overview

One of the best miniature mics for use on very loud sound sources.

The 4061 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Loud SPL from DPA Microphones is acoustically identical to the 4060 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Normal SPL— the very first miniature microphone developed by DPA from the best technology previously only used in hearing aids and measurement microphones—but its sensitivity is adjusted to accommodate higher sound pressure levels. The DPA Microphones 4061 Miniature Omnidirectional Microphone, Loud SPL can handle SPLs of up to 144 dB peak before clipping, making it one of the best miniatures for use on very loud sound sources, such as some instruments and human voices.

In comparison, the 4061 is about 10 dB less sensitive than the 4060 and therefore works well when used for hidden applications, such as being mounted on the head or forehead of a theater performer. In this placement, the sound pressure level is about 10 dB louder than what you encounter with chest placement (lapel microphone).

The 4061 was developed to withstand the toughest of conditions. It contains a 5.4 mm diameter pre-polarized condenser element with a vertical diaphragm. This unique, Double Vent Protection System makes the mic greatly resistant to humidity and sweat. The 4061 from DPA is also designed with a Kevlar-reinforced cable relief, which is built to withstand the constant twists, bends and pulls that are part of the everyday use in harsh environments.
