User’s Manual Technical Description The Nearfield Grid The Nearfield Grid DD0251 on the microphone cartridge is designed to have a linear on-axis frequency response for near field applications (see Fig. 3 for frequency responses measured with the Nearfield Grid). The grid can be exchanged with the DD0297 Diffusefield Grid or the UA0777 Nose Cone.

APE determines the acoustical changes of the microphone. The APE’s are precision made from a special compact nylon material and will only fit the Types 4003 and 4006 fitted with the standard Nearfield Grid DD0251. There are four different APE’s in the range: L30B is a Ø30mm ball-shaped APE marked with a blue dot, L40B is a Ø40mm ball-shaped APE marked with...

If a replacement cartridge is required, contact your local DPA Microphones representative. • Types 4003 and 4006 are supplied with an additional Diffusefield Grid DD0297 (see “Technical Description” and “Full Specifications”). On delivery, the normal protection grid is screwed on to the cartridge housing and normal finger torque is required to remove it.

User’s Manual Care Of Microphone Use of Acoustic Pressure Equalizers • Acoustic Pressure Equalizers are only to be used with the standard silver protection grid DD0251. • Do not try to fit APE’s on Nose Cone UA0777. • The microphone must be inserted into the APE hole from the end which is opposite to the O-ring.
