Great SPL Handling in a Small Package

The DPA 6061 CORE subminiature microphone packs the incredible sound of DPA's award-winning 4060 series into a 3mm mic — 60% smaller than its predecessor! Ideal for loud sources, the 6061 boasts a super-low noise floor and rock-solid SPL handling. The 6061 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 6061 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 6061 CORE exhibits a 102dB dynamic range, a 26dB noise floor, and yields a maximum SPL of 144dB. You'll be hard-pressed to find many mics of this size that sound this good.

The DPA CORE 6061 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 6061 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 6061 CORE's attractive matte coating — the 6061 is a stunning, albeit unobtrusive, piece of tech.
