(e) To use a dynamic microphone, you

may need to install the provided shunt onto Jumper JP1 of your X-Fi I/O Drive.

By default, your X-Fi I/O Drive is set for

use with most condenser and dynamic microphones, without a shunt.

To prevent permanent damage, use only the AD_EXT cable with the AD_EXT connector, and the X-Fi audio card with the X-Fi I/O Drive. Do not force any cable into a connector. This can cause permanent damage to your hardware.
