The DPA 4066 is a headband mounted condenser microphone. The DPA 4066 Miniature Omnidirectional Headset Microphone uses a prepolarized omnidirectional cartridge element with a 5.4mm vertical diaphragm. It is specially designed for maximum performance under the often difficult conditions when mounted directly on the human body. The band 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 headband 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 Headband Microphone to fail. The sensitivity is 6mV/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 144dB SPL before clipping occurs. A wide range of connection adapters makes it possible to use the DPA 4066 with close to any professional wireless system available plus 48 V phantom.

Available for use on Shure, Lectrosonics, and Sennheiser Transmitters, also available for Hardwire XLR use.
