Wow.

These are fantastic. I did a shoot out with a Neumann U89, AKG 414s, Austrian Audio OC818s, and these DPAs were far and away the most natural on my Yamaha Grand Piano. Fantastic - I use them all the time!

A good product. No complaints.

DPA does it again

I use these once a week on a Grand Piano at The Arts Club Dover Street.

The magnetic mounts, sound, volume & clarity is perfect.

I'm not a fan of the thin cable (that's used across the 4099 range) and the case provided feels to tight for two very expensive microphones!
