Product Description
The DPA 6060 CORE Subminiature Omni Lavalier Microphone delivers full-size, broadcast-quality sound from an incredibly discreet 3 mm capsule. Finished in black and fitted with DPA’s new MicroLock connector, this normal SPL version is ideal for spoken word, theatre, film, television and corporate applications where reliability, clarity and invisibility are essential.
Despite its tiny footprint, the 6060 offers an exceptionally low noise floor and impressive handling of high sound pressure levels, giving you clean, detailed audio with plenty of headroom. Combined with CORE by DPA amplifier technology and robust construction, it is a premium choice for demanding professionals who need a lavalier that simply works, day in, day out.
Subminiature Size, Full-Scale Sound
At just 3 mm in diameter, the 6060 is easy to conceal in costumes, hair, glasses or on the body, keeping the focus on the performance rather than the equipment. Crucially, this ultra-compact form factor does not compromise sound quality, delivering a natural, open tone that sits effortlessly in any mix.
CORE by DPA Clarity and Headroom
Built around DPA’s CORE amplifier technology, the 6060 achieves a lower noise floor than any other 3 mm capsule in its class. With a wide dynamic range and the ability to handle high SPLs without audible distortion, it captures every nuance of the voice with precision, from intimate whispers to energetic dialogue.
Reliable MicroLock Connectivity
This version of the 6060 is equipped with DPA’s MicroLock connector for a secure, dependable connection to compatible wireless systems. The locking mechanism is designed to withstand the rigours of professional use, helping to prevent accidental disconnection while still allowing fast, flexible rigging on set or on stage.
Omnidirectional, Natural Capture
The omnidirectional polar pattern provides consistent, even pickup around the capsule, reducing handling and placement issues. This makes it easier to achieve a stable, natural sound across different mounting positions, ideal when working with multiple talent or fast costume changes.
Features
- Ultra-compact 3 mm capsule - The tiny subminiature design is extremely easy to hide on talent, in costumes or props, keeping the microphone virtually invisible while still delivering professional-grade audio.
- CORE by DPA low-noise performance - Advanced CORE technology lowers the noise floor and increases dynamic range, giving you cleaner recordings with more detail and less hiss, even in quiet dialogue scenes.
- Secure MicroLock connector - The dedicated MicroLock interface provides a firm, reliable connection to compatible wireless systems, helping to prevent dropouts caused by loose plugs during movement-heavy performances.
- Natural omnidirectional pickup - The omni pattern captures sound evenly from all directions, making placement more forgiving and ensuring consistent, natural-sounding results across a wide range of applications.
