DPA Microphones6066 CORE Omni Headset Mic, Black, MicroDot
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The black 6066 CORE is an omnidirectional, MicroDot-connected headset microphone with a 3 mm capsule. Its adjustable one-size frame uses spring-assisted three-point ear grips, while the 130 mm boom adjusts in length and height and can move from one side of the frame to the other. The rear cable guide routes the 1.3 m cable downward and separates cable movement from boom adjustment. IP58 certification adds protection against water and sweat exposure.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Performers needing a headset frame that can be adjusted on site for individual wearers.
- Live use where the boom position needs length and height adjustment without bending it.
- Setups that benefit from routing the cable down the performer's back.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Wireless systems that require a microphone connector other than MicroDot.
