MOVING-CONDUCTOR TYPE DYNAMIC MICROPHONES
impedance input amplifiers. Permissible cable
length practically unlimited. For amplifiers
with high impedance input, Shure Model A86A
Cable-Type Transformer is available for coupling
low impedance line to amplifier.
High impedance model 5G (5G-25FT.) can be
used with any crystal microphone amplifier or
other amplifier with input impedance of 100,000
ohms or more. Inner conductor of cable connects
to grid side of input, "shield" to ground of
amplifier. Cable lengths longer than 25 ft.
accompanied by some loss of high frequency
response.

tain full strength of permanent magnet and maintain alignment of structure, dropping or other
severe mechanical shocks should be avoided. Care
should be taken that the cable does not parallel
A.C. power lines for long distances.
