An optional selection of acoustic modification accessories, including nose cone and interchangeable protection grids, allows the 4006E to be acoustically transformed into different microphone versions, making it the most multifaceted mic in your collection and a tremendous value. By simply changing a grid, it is possible to gain several unique frequency responses and directional characteristics from a single mic.

With a length of only 3,5 cm, the low-key appearance of the 4006E goes well together with its modular nature, making it possible to quickly combine the capsule with another pre-amp or boom pole or choosing another capsule with the active cable.

At any time and with no tools necessary it is possible to transform the basic 4006E microphone into a new configuration by combining it with another DPA microphone capsule or preamp.
