Do I need a PSU?
The M305 and the M310 Accordion/Melodeon microphones have
a built in power Supply. All the others need one of the two available
external power supplies.

Can I use my mixer's phantom power?
The phantom power on most mixers is set at 48v. This far
too high a voltage for Micrtovox microphones and so a PSU must
be used.

Which Power Supply?
A. Both power supplies work with all Microvox microphones
but the output level of the Mini PSU is slightly lower than that
of the Standard PSU. If your instrument is relatively quiet e.g.
Guitar, Mandolin, Mandola, then we would recommend use of the
Standard PSU. The Mini PSU has no On/Off/Volume controls - it
is simply 'Plug in and go' so if you require some degree of control
at your end of the cable, the Standard PSU is more suitable. Both
PSUs have a belt clip which can be used to fasten to a belt, a
pocket or an instrument strap.

M400 or M500 Mic?
The M400 mic element faces down toward the instrument whereas
the M500 element faces across the instrument (Axially, in line
with the cable).
