AKG Acoustics C747 V11 - Manual (Page 15)

3 Interfacing
The C 747 V11 is a condenser microphone and therefore needs a power supply.
The microphone provides a balanced output on a 3-pin male XLR connector:
Pin 1: ground
Pin 2: hot
Pin 3: return
You can connect the microphone to balanced microphone inputs with or without
phantom power. AKG phantom power supplies allow you to connect the micro-
phone to unbalanced inputs as well.
1. Use an XLR cable to connect the microphone to a balanced XLR input with
phantom power.
2. Switch the phantom power on. (Refer to the instruction manual of the unit to
which you connected your C 747 V11.)
• If your mixer provides no phantom power, connect an optional AKG B 18 phan-
tom power supply between the microphone and the mixer.
You may connect the AKG B 18 phantom power supply to an unbalanced input as
well.
• Refer to the instruction manual of the B 18 phantom power supply.
