The DPA 2011A Cardioid Microphone is acclaimed for its close-miking excellence and hi-SPL handling. Optimized for on-stage use, it has been used on many stages as well as recording sessions. It exhibits a previously unheard blend of clarity, richness and dynamic range.

The DPA 2011A Cardioid Microphone is a directional microphone. The distinctive sound of this microphone is well balanced. It bridges the gap between the extreme sound quality of DPA's pencil microphones and their well-known lavalier microphones. Two opposite-facing miniature capsules are custom rebuilt inside the DPA 2011A Twin Diaphragm Cardioid Microphone. They are placed into a double-diaphragm, one-capsule composition. This combines the advantages of small capsules with the lower inherent noise achieved from a larger diaphragm area. These capsules provide fast impulse response and large frequency bandwidth. The capsules are loaded to DPA's supreme preamps, which gives the sound more air and precision.

Modular Flexibility
The DPA 2011A Twin Diaphragm Cardioid Microphone is part of the flexible DPA Reference Standard series. The 2011A with the MMP-A preamplifier is the audiophile's choice with low distortion and total accurate and faithful sound. At any time and with no tools necessary it is possible to transform the basic 2011 microphone into a new configuration by combining it with another DPA microphone capsule or preamp.

Twin Diaphragm Capsule Technology
The overall distinctive sound image from the DPA miniatures is so well balanced that it meets the high demands of the DPA Reference Standard league. In a DPA 2011A Microphone capsule, two opposite facing miniature capsules are custom re-built into a double diaphragm, one-capsule composition. The use and control of interference tubes has become a DPA specialty and the DPA 2011A is no exception; the capsules are loaded to the supreme Reference Standard preamps instead of the tiny miniature FET preamp from the 4060 miniature series, offering even more air and precision.

Stage Addict
The DPA 2011A has found its use on numerous stages and recording sessions. Exhibiting a previously unheard blend of clarity, richness and dynamic range, the DPA 2011A Twin Diaphragm Cardioid Microphone performs like a much more exclusive microphone and redefines the term value for money.
