DPA 6060-OC-U-B03 d:screet CORE 6060 Omni Submini Microphone, Normal SPL, Black, 3-Pin LEMO

d:screet 6060 CORE Subminiature Microphones are just 3 mm (0.12 in) in size but pack the audio power of our 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, DPA ensure you don't have to compromise on sound to focus on aesthetics.

Shrinking CORE into a 3 mm
CORE by DPA is a powerful new technology at the heart of our miniature microphones. DPA’ve minimized distortion. From a whisper to a scream, you will experience increased clarity and openness.

Now DPA've taken the amazing CORE technology and shrunk it down to fit into our (0.12 in) subminiature mics. This means that, despite their small size, the performance of the d:screet 6060 CORE Subminiature Series is fully comparable to the 5 mm (0.20 in) miniature capsules that are beloved around the globe. These subminiatures have a lower noise floor than any other 3 mm (0.12 in) capsule on the market and they are better able to capture high sound pressure levels without distortion as well. In terms of technical specifications, the d:screet 6061 has a noise floor of only 26 dB(A), which is on par with the 5 mm (0.20 in) DPA miniature capsules.

Advanced new mic design
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 our 5 mm (0.20 in) 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.

IP58 certified
The CORE Subminiatures are IP58 certified. This durability is achieved through a number of defense mechanisms:
Water-repellant nano-coating of the cover and housing
Hermetic sealing of the sensitive amplifier at the core of the mic
Dual gold plating of the diaphragm
