DPA 2011A

Properties:

The DPA 2011A is a dual diaphragm condenser microphone with cardioid characteristic. The two miniature capsules facing each other form a capsule unit as a double diaphragm and thus combine the advantages of small capsules with the lower input noise of a larger diaphragm area. This is accompanied by a fast impulse response and a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz. The microphone also excels in the areas of clarity, fullness, dynamics, signal separation and level control, as well as in modular flexibility.
