DPA Microphones

Designing microphones with amazing sound, exceptional consistency and outstanding durability is no easy feat.

DPA Microphones draws on more than six decades of world-class microphone design experience. This history starts back to the 1950s, when DPA's predecessor, Brüel & Kjær, developed the first, precisely accurate measurement microphones. Today, sound superiority and technical innovation is still at the heart of everything DPA Embraces today.

In 1992, two entrepreneurial spirits, Ole Brøsted Sørensen & Morten Støve, left Brüel & Kjær and started a transformation that affects the audio industry to this day. They turned the most well-known and accurate measurement microphones in the world into the clearest, truest pro-audio microphones you can purchase today. The 4006 Omnidirectional Microphone was one of the first recording mics DPA developed and is still one of the best-loved recording mics in the world.
