DPA 4066-C

A fixture on Broadway and London's West End, the 4066-C is a headband-mounted pre-polarized omni-directional miniature condenser microphone offering clean, transparent sound quality as well as fast and easy adjustment possibilities. Its unique headband construction gives you the choice between left and/or right mounting. It's also possible to use the microphone boom without the headband.

A double vent protection system, a drop stopper on the tube, and water resistant materials inside the microphone offer maximum protection from humidity and moisture. Its sensitivity is 6 mV/Pa to match the level of the human voice to the general input sensitivity of most wireless transmitters.

It can handle sound pressure levels up to 144 dB SPL before clipping occurs. A wide range of connection adapters makes it possible to use the 4066 with most any professional wireless system available (plus 48 V phantom XLR connection).

The 4066-C sports a brown finish and comes with 5 foam windscreens.
