DPA Sound in a Smaller Package

The DPA 6060 CORE packs the incredible sound of DPA's award-winning 4060 series into a 3mm mic — that's 60% smaller than its predecessor. Experience unprecedented headroom and clarity, with a super-low noise floor and impressive SPL handling. The 6060 features a stainless steel housing with a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating that's resistant to high temperatures, impacts, and abrasions. Beyond that, it's water resistant, hermetically sealed, and employs a dual gold-plated diaphragm. The 6060 CORE subminiature microphone is a great choice if you need a near-invisible lavalier mic that's tailor-made for field work.

Subminiature CORE technology

DPA's CORE technology delivers comparable performance to its 5mm mics in a 3mm design. And they sound great — at Sweetwater, we've found that these mics deliver top-shelf results with minimal distortion and amazing clarity and openness. The 6060 CORE exhibits a 102dB dynamic range, a 24dB noise floor, and yields a maximum SPL of 134dB. You'll be hard-pressed to find many mics of this size that sound this good.

The DPA 6060 CORE is 60% smaller than its predecessor.

Rugged microphone design

Lav mics take a beating out in the field, and DPA took this into account when it designed the 6060 CORE. It's built from stainless steel and treated with a PVD coating for increased durability. It's also IP58 certified, boasting a water-repellent nano-coating, hermetically sealed amplifier, and dual gold-plated diaphragm. That said, there's nothing utilitarian about the 6060 CORE's attractive matte coating — the 6060 is a stunning, albeit unobtrusive, piece of tech.

Reviews

it's a love / hate relationship
If you have never laid eyes on this mic you will be blown away by its tiny size. Obviously there is nothing bad to say about the DPA 6060 but there are a couple things I would like to see improved. I have the 3.5mm TRS Sennheiser terminal and it is extremely heavy, way heavier than it should or needs to be. It feels like boat anchor. The DPA 6060 came in a 50 cent plastic box with zero accessories. I mean WTH? $... mic and they can't even throw in a 10 cent clip or foam wind screen? Nope I had to pay another $... for those. Is it worth it? If you need a subminiature mic then it works extremely well, I was able to conceal it on the thin frame of eye glasses, but if you don't need a subminiature mic there are cheaper versions like the MKE 2, B6, or COS-11D that sound better and take less fixing in post.
