DPA 4011A Stereo Kit: absolute precision in stereo recordings

The DPA 4011A Stereo Kit consists of two DPA 4011A cardioid microphones carefully matched at the factory to ensure maximum timbre and phase coherence. This pair represents one of the world's most popular solutions for natural and faithful stereo recordings, ideal for acoustic instruments, orchestral ensembles, choirs, and acoustically refined environments.

Neutral and transparent sound

With a perfectly linear frequency response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz and flawless phase, 4011As capture every detail with surgical precision. Reproduction is completely neutral, without coloration, making the set perfect for reference, broadcast and high-end mastering recordings.

Maximum consistency and reliability

Each stereo pair is matched with a sensitivity tolerance and frequency response within ±1 dB, ensuring an extremely stable and realistic stereo image. The ability to handle up to 159 dB SPL allows even very powerful sources to be captured without risk of distortion.

Modular flexibility and broad compatibility

The microphones can be used with various DPA Pencil series preamplifiers:

• MMP-A: ultra-transparent preamplifier with balanced active drive
• MMP-C: compact version with a softer character
• MMP-E / MMP-G: modular active cables with XLR or MicroDot outputs for discrete or wireless configurations

Ideal for recordings of the highest fidelity

The DPA 4011A Stereo Kit is the ideal choice for those who want to achieve a realistic and balanced sound image. Perfect for ORTF, XY or AB miking, this kit ensures consistent and natural results in any professional recording environment.
