DPA 4099-DP-2 CORE+ Instrument Microphone (Extreme SPL)
DPA 4099-DP-2 CORE+ is the most powerful version of the popular 4099 model (2025 release), specifically designed to amplify extremely loud instruments such as drums, percussion, or trumpets. This CORE+ version utilizes improved amplifier technology, which ensures even greater transparency and practically eliminates any harmonic distortion even at maximum volume.
The "Extreme SPL" model stands out for its ability to withstand up to 152 dB maximum sound pressure level (SPL), allowing the microphone to be mounted extremely close to drumheads or wind instrument openings without fear of signal clipping. The new model is IP58 certified, protecting against moisture and dust, and features a reliable MicroLock connector that ensures the cable will not detach even during the most active performance. The supercardioid polar pattern guarantees excellent sound isolation and allows for high monitor levels without the risk of feedback.
Key features
- Extreme SPL capability: Withstands up to 152 dB peak SPL – ideal for drums and trumpets.

- IP58 resistance: The microphone is protected against moisture and dust on stage.
