Shure ILP-1 User Giude

GENERAL
The ILP-1 is a high-clipping level, low-noise preampli-
fier designed exclusively for use with Shure Models
SM90A, SM91A, SM98A, SM102B and SM102W, or for
use as a replacement preamplifier for older Models SM90,
SM91, and SM98. The ILP-1 connects to balanced micro-
phone inputs providing 11 to 52 Vdc phantom power. Two
switches on the ILP-1 allow you to set low-frequency re-
sponse (flat or rolloff at 12 dB/octave) and gain (0 or +10
dB). The low cut switch minimizes ambient low-frequency
noise from sources such as heating or air conditioner
fans.
The supplied mounting clamps hold the preamplifier in
place for permanent installations. Use either one or two
clamps depending on location and application.
