DPA d:screet CORE 6060 Omni Subminiature Mic

The 6060 CORE Subminiature Microphones are just 3 mm (0.12 in) in size but pack the audio power of the larger,  award-winning DPA mics. What they lack in size, they more than make up for in clarity, consistency and durability – three qualities that really matter. By shrinking CORE by DPA technology, it ensures you don't have to compromise on sound to focus on aesthetics.

This tiny capsule has a cap that can be removed for cleaning and should be firmly reattached to the mic body with a firm click that can both be felt and heard. The supplied cap corresponds in its nature to the low-boost grid of DPA's 5 mm (0.20 in) microphone versions. Both the mic itself plus the cap are made of stainless steel and treated with a Physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating that makes it extremely durable: able to tolerate high temperatures, resilient against impacts and resistant to abrasion. The entire mic has a pleasant matte look due to the coating making the entire headset look smaller and less obtrusive.

The cable is often the weak spot on these types of mics, but DPA have opted to use the same size cable (Ø 1.6 mm (.06 in)) and the same rugged cable relief as on the 5 mm (0.20 in) mics. The cables are extremely durable, do not become entangled and are equipped with an inner core made of Kevlar that withstands rough pulls. A strain relief is integrated in the mic housing to strengthen the assembly.

The cable and capsule design ensure immunity to noisy wireless devices. These mics are typically connected to a wireless belt pack and DPA offer a comprehensive mix of adapters to suit the many wireless transmitters available. When used with an adapter, the connector is the MicroDot but DPA also offer hardwired terminations to suit the most popular systems from manufacturers such as Shure and Sennheiser. All of the connectors are equipped with a rugged strain relief.

It’s the only 3 mm (0.12 in) mic that gives you the DPA sonic quality that you know and love.
