A stunning pair of B&K or DPA 4011 cardiod condenser microphones that are consecutive serial numbers and come complete with the original boxes, stand mounts, calibration charts and even the original, boxed foam windshield. If a stereo pair of low noise, scarily accurate mics of the highest quality is what you seek then you have just found them.
We have used these on anything from piano, percussion, acoustic guitar and horns. They work astoundingly well and are one of THE classic mics for applications where faithful reproduction and low noise are paramount. These have been also used as stereo X-Y configuration as well as a spaced pair and the realism and feeling of ‘being in the room’ is uncanny…
Hardly used, one careful, professional owner and stored in a controlled environment, these mics are in near mint condition with hardly any marks on them at all - take a look at the pictures and you will see what we mean. I doubt if you will find a cleaner pair and even the boxes and accessories are near mint, including the windshield foam.
As you may now, these mics are exactly the same as the DPA 4011 which is what B&K renamed them when their off shoot company DPA was formed to cover the audio side of their huge test and measurement mic range. It is also a lot more pronounceable and easier to spell than Bruel & Kjaer!
Not very often you see these for sale, especially a consecutive pair like this, plug them in and you’ll find out why…
