The DPA 4065 is a headset mounted condenser microphone. It uses a prepolarized omnidirectional cartridge element with a 5.4 mm vertical diaphragm, which is acoustically identical with the cartridge used in DPA 4061.
It is specially designed for maximum performance under the often difficult conditions when mounted directly on the face. The headset is easily bent to fit any head shape, in a tight fixed position.
Special attention has been paid in the design to the humidity problems that often occur in theatrical applications and to the light weight construction of the headset itself. A double vent protection system, a drop stopper on the tube together with water resistant materials inside the microphone, make it more than difficult for the humidity to cause the microphone to fail.
The sensitivity is 6 mV/Pa to match the level of the human voice to the general input sensitivity of most wireless transmitters.
If powered correctly the microphone will be able to handle sound pressure levels up to 144 dB SPL before clipping occurs. A wide range of connection adapters makes it possible to use the headband with close to any professional wireless system available plus 48 V phantom.
DPA 4065 is excellent for on-stage use as well as in the studio. It is available in black and beige for both left and right side of the face.
This mic is also available with connector.
