[1] 1 Pa=94 dB SPL
[2] THD of microphone preamplifier when applied
input signal level is equivalent to cartridge out-
put at specified SPL
[3] S/N ratio is the difference between 94 dB SPL
and equivalent SPL of self noise, A-weighted
[4] All specifications measured with a 48 Vdc
phantom power supply. The microphone oper-
ates at lower voltages, but with slightly de-
creased headroom and sensitivity.
Test Circuit

spect to pin 1
XLR: Positive pressure on diaphragm produces positive voltage on pin 2 with re-
spect to pin 3
Power Requirements TQG: 5 V DC (0.04–0.18 mA)
XLR: 11–52 V DC [4] phantom power (IEC-61938), <2.2 mA
