  • Page 9 Connecting the miniature cable – The miniature connection cable is Kevlar ® fi bre reinforced and designed to withstand considerable tensile and compressive forces, however inside this sheath are three copper wires. – Always ensure the connectors are correctly aligned groove-to-key when connecting the miniature connector’s and do not use excessive force when inserting and withdrawing.
  • Page 10 Using the NT6 • The NT6 is a phantom powered microphone. To operate correctly it requires a 24V or 48V phantom supply from the mixing console or other source. • It is recommended that you use a high-quality microphone lead from the preamp body to the recording device or mixing console, and keep it as short as practical for your application.
  • Page 11 • A small screwdriver or pen can be used to alter the switch positions as required. Storage • After use the NT6 head should be wiped with a dry, soft cloth, and both head and body placed in the protective case.
