DPA 4099-DP-1-101-P CORE+ Microphone Kit for Piano (Stereo Set, Loud SPL)

DPA 4099-DP-1-101-P CORE+ is a top-tier stereo kit (2025 edition), specifically designed for natural and transparent sound reinforcement of pianos and grand pianos. This new CORE+ version ensures even greater sonic accuracy and a wider dynamic range, allowing you to capture the instrument's subtlest nuances without any audible distortion.

The kit includes two specially adapted PC4099 magnetic mounts, which allow for secure and extremely quick attachment of the microphones to the piano frame, without damaging the instrument's surface. The supercardioid polar pattern of the microphones ensures excellent isolation from other stage sounds and maximum resistance to acoustic feedback. The new MicroLock connector system guarantees that the cables will stay firmly in place even with active use of the equipment.
