Powering your NT55

The NT55 is designed to operate

from phantom power to the P48

standard, between 44 V and 52

V and P24 standard, between 20

V and 28 V, applied with positive

polarity to pin 2 and pin 3 of the

output XLR connector.
The NT55 will operate

satisfactorily into a load

impedance as low as 1 kΩ. If a

load below this is used, the output

signal level will be reduced. The

NT55 output is balanced between

pin 2 (hot) and pin 3 (cold). Pin 1

is ground.

Mounting your NT55

The NT55 comes complete with

an RM5 Stand Mount (see fig. 1).
When connected to a mic stand

the RM5 securely holds

the mic in position. As

long as the NT55 is

suitably protected from

the elements it can be

positioned as required.
Before placing the

NT55 into the RM5

stand mount, remove all

cables and connectors

to eliminate the possibility of

damaging the connectors.
Place the NT55 into the RM5 by

pushing the mic in on an angle

(see figs. 2 & 3).
