With its winning combination of clarity, consistency, and durability, the DPA 2017 is a versatile shotgun microphone designed to deliver natural, crystal-clear sound for professional broadcasting, journalism, location recording, theater, and TV and film productions.

The low-noise supercardioid condenser capsule offers a 130 dB dynamic range and can handle peak SPLs up to 143 dB with less than 1% distortion, allowing you to confidently capture a wide variety of source material clearly and accurately. The 2017 uses a standard 3-pin XLR connector and requires 48V phantom power for operation.

Performance in tight spaces with high reflection, like concrete/tile/steel floors & walls?
The DPA Microphones 2017 Supercardioid Shotgun Microphone will not cut out the sounds that are reflected off of the walls and floors. You will need to use acoustic treatments in the room, such as absorption panels and rugs or blankets, to dampen the reflections. No microphone would be able to cut out the reflections.
