-as of [30 APRIL 2024]–
.
.
-‘DPA microphones’ is a danish manufacturer of [‘microphones’ / ‘microphone solutions’] for the ‘professional markets’, owned by the italien pro audio manufacturer ‘RCF Audio’-
.
The current CEO is Kalle Hvidt.
The company was founded in 1992 by two former employees from Brüel & Kjær – Morten Stove and Ole Brosted Sorensen.
Brüel & Kjaer had decided to close down their Pro Audio department and Morten and Ole made a contract with B&K to take over sales, service and development.
DPA was at that time solely supplying high end studio microphones for recording and broadcast use.
In 1995 they teamed up with Dan Ingemann Jensen and Jens Jørn Stokholm from DanaBallerina (later Muphone) and co-developed the later famous DPA 4060 and 4061 miniature microphone, which quickly became the preferred microphone in the theatre world on Broadway in New York and the West End in London.
The company received the prestigious King Frederik IX award at a ceremony in ‘Fredensborg Castle’
The company’s headquarters is located in Allerød in Denmark, and the production plant is located in Asnæs, also in Denmark
In 2017, DPA made a shift in its product line up.
The introduced a new series of products called CORE
The idea behind CORE was to solve the issue lavaliers were having with the new digital wireless transmitters.
The first products to launch using the new CORE microphone design was the 4060-series of lavaliers followed by the 6060-series of lavaliers
