Product Description
The DPA Type 4006 is without doubt the most popular Standard Microphone in the Series 4000 Microphones and has since its release in 1982 earned a status as being the worldwide studio standard. It is an omnidirectional condenser microphone with an extremely linear frequency response from 20Hz to 20kHz, high sensitivity and a low noise-floor. The 4006 is phantom powered (P48), which together with the extended range of acoustic pressure equalizers and different protection grids turns the 4006 into an extremely cost effective solution. All in all the Type 4006 can be changed into 7 different microphone versions acoustically. The 4006 has gained its reputation through its total transparency in both the near-field and in the diffuse field. A must for any studio.
