DPA 5006-11 4006-TL / 4011-TL Surround Microphone Kit

5006-11 4006-TL / 4011-TL Surround Microphone Kit description:

The DPA 5006-11 4006-TL / 4011-TL Surround Microphone Kit. Intended for use in Decca Tree front/backwards faced cardioids rear configuration.

The DPA 5006-11 Surround Microphone Kit includes three 4006-TL Omnidirectional Microphones, P48, Transformerless (match within ±0.5 dB in sensitivity and frequency response in the microphone’s entire frequency range), three L50B Acoustic Pressure Equalizers, 50 mm (1.97 in) Ball, two 4011-TL Cardioid Microphones, P48 (match within ±1 dB in sensitivity and frequency response in the microphone’s entire frequency range) and two UA0898 Shock Mounts. The kit is intended for use in a Decca Tree front/backwards faced cardioids rear configuration. The Decca Tree advantages: more vivid dynamics and clarity due to its closer placement, excellent sound colour and authentic reproduction that is unique for omni microphones, full frequency range in front channels and relatively little direct signal in rear channels; avoiding the front sound sources from sounding too close or even behind you.
