The 2011C with the MMP-C compact preamplifier offers a subtle character alteration with a bit more \"body\" to the low end - in addition to its easier-to-position approach. The 2011A with the MMP-A preamplifier is the audiophile's choice with low distortion and total accurate and faithful sound.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAt any time and with no tools necessary it is possible to transform the basic 2011 microphone into a new configuration by combining it with another DPA microphone capsule or preamp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwin Diaphragm Capsule: cutting edge technology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe overall distinctive sound image from the DPA miniatures is so well balanced that it meets the high demands of the DPA Reference Standard league.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn a 2011 capsule two opposite facing miniature capsules are custom re-built into a double diaphragm, one-capsule composition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe use and control of interference tubes has become a DPA specialty and the 2011 is no exception; the capsules are loaded to the supreme Reference Standard preamps instead of the tiny miniature FET preamp from the 4060 miniature series, offering even more air and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStage addict\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2011 has found its use on numerous stages and recording sessions.
