INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the PB23 Phantom Power Adapter, the unit is
designed to provide years of lasting value and usefulness. The unit
powers a condenser microphone that is designed for phantom powering.
Phantom power microphones provide much greater dynamic range, lower
noise and better sound quality. Most microphones will operate at full
performance with 12 volts DC, however some mics require 48 volts which
was the old tube mic standard. The PB23 features selectable voltage
levels.
OPERATION
Switch the PHANTOM VOLTAGE to the appropriate setting. Connect a
condenser microphone to the input connector(s) and connect the
output(s) to a mixer or other audio input device. Apply power to the unit by
connecting the enclosed adapter to an AC outlet and to the 12VDC
Power Loop. The LED on the front of the unit will light. The two DC input
jacks are provided in order to use one power supply to power more than
one unit. The units provide no audio gain as they are not microphone
preamps.
