DPA 2028-B-SL1 Supercardioid Vocal Capsule (Black)

DPA 2028-B-SL1 is a professional vocal capsule designed to deliver natural and transparent sound when used with wireless systems. This model features legendary DPA transparency, ensuring the vocalist's voice sounds exceptionally accurate and requires minimal additional processing or equalizer (EQ) adjustments.

The capsule has a highly stable supercardioid polar pattern, which effectively isolates vocals from ambient noise and ensures high resistance to acoustic feedback. The integrated three-layer pop filter and protective grille reliably guard against unwanted noise, while the robust construction guarantees durability under intensive use. This model is compatible with popular Shure, Sony, and Lectrosonics wireless systems.
