• 5.4mm CORE+ by DPA omnidirectional miniature lavalier for discreet professional miking.
• Loud-SPL 4061 capsule: 6mV/Pa sensitivity, 26dB(A) typical self-noise and 144dB SPL peak capability.

Need help choosing?
Choose the 4061 when you expect louder voices, theatre performance levels or head/forehead placement where the microphone sees more level and extra headroom is valuable. Choose the 4060 when maximum sensitivity and lower self-noise are more important. For the smallest possible DPA lavalier, compare the 3mm 6060 / 6061 family.
The DPA CORE+ 4061 is a 5.4mm omnidirectional miniature lavalier microphone designed for professional film, television, theatre, broadcast and location sound where extra headroom is required. Its lower 6mV/Pa sensitivity allows it to handle up to 144dB SPL peak, making it particularly useful for louder voices, performance work and head or forehead mounting.
CORE+ by DPA reduces distortion across the microphone's dynamic range while retaining the natural, consistent character of the 4060 series. Choose Black, Beige, White or Brown, then select MicroLock or a hardwired 3-Pin Lemo, TA4F Mini-XLR or 3.5mm Mini-Jack termination to suit your wireless system.

Warranty
Warranty coverage varies by product and manufacturer.
If you experience a fault or would like to check whether your product is covered by a manufacturer warranty, please visit our Returns & Warranty page and complete the warranty form.
Soundkit will review your claim and, where applicable, help manage the warranty process with the manufacturer on your behalf.
Manufacturer warranties, where provided, generally do not cover misuse, accidental damage, unauthorised modification, improper storage, incorrect operation, or normal wear and tear.
Your statutory rights are not affected.
Important Notes
• The 4061 is the lower-sensitivity / higher-SPL model in the 4060/4061 CORE+ family.
• Choose the 4060 instead when maximum sensitivity and lower self-noise are more important than extreme SPL headroom.
• Choose the termination that matches your transmitter before ordering.
• Hardwired termination options can be prepared in-house and may add up to 24 hours to dispatch.
• The 4061 uses DPA's 5.4mm miniature capsule; for a smaller 3mm package compare the DPA 6061.
The 4061 shares the compact 5.4mm physical format of the 4060 but uses lower sensitivity for additional headroom. The 1.8m cable and reinforced relief are designed for regular professional rigging, costume and location work.
Loud SPL / 6mV/Pa Sensitivity
More Headroom for Loud Voices and Performance
The 4061 is around 10dB less sensitive than the 4060, making it better suited to high-level speech, theatre and concealed head-mounted positions. Its 6mV/Pa sensitivity and 144dB SPL peak capability preserve clarity when the source gets loud.
5.4mm CORE+ Miniature Capsule
CORE+ Clarity with Flexible Wireless Termination
CORE+ reduces distortion across the usable dynamic range while keeping the familiar 4061 tonal character. Choose Black, Beige, White or Brown, then select MicroLock or a hardwired 3-Pin Lemo, TA4F Mini-XLR or 3.5mm Mini-Jack termination.
