DPA 2028-B-SL1

The DPA 2028-B-SL1 is a supercardioid condenser vocal microphone capsule designed to deliver transparent and natural sound reproduction for live stage performances. It is compatible with select Shure, Sony, and Lectrosonics wireless systems, providing flexibility for various professional audio setups.

Engineered to handle high sound pressure levels, the 2028-B-SL1 ensures clarity and detail in vocal performances. Its supercardioid polar pattern offers excellent off-axis rejection, minimizing feedback and isolating the vocalist's voice from surrounding instruments and ambient noise. This design enhances gain-before-feedback, making it ideal for demanding live environments.

The microphone capsule features a robust construction suitable for the rigors of live performance. Its integrated pop filter and shockmount system effectively reduce handling noise and plosive sounds, ensuring consistent audio quality. The 2028-B-SL1's compatibility with Shure, Sony, and Lectrosonics wireless transmitters allows performers and audio engineers to maintain high-quality sound without the constraints of wired connections.
