3. If your mixer provides no phantom power:
Connect the phantom power adapter (1) to an
optional AKG phantom power supply (2) (N 62 E,
N 66 E, B 18, B 15) and use an XLR cable (3)
(e.g., an optional MK 9/10 from AKG) to connect
the phantom power supply to the desired
balanced input.
You may connect any AKG phantom power sup-
ply (2) to an unbalanced input, too.
