Title: Microphone Repair? - TRS 1/4 tip solder - how to re attach - SHURE 580SA
Post by: Elguapo511 on August 05, 2018, 05:10:01 PM

I just pulled this from a garage sale and identified the problem.  old solder....

 just wondering how to re attach correctly.

What wire goes where?  Anyone have experience with a mic like this?

Also, what is that tiny black wire? seems to be cut short.

The microphone works when I touch a few wires together.  But wondering what the T section thinks.

Check the pics and thanks for the help

update.

just stripped it.

I am confused because there are three wires and I thought there would be two.

Do I twist two together?

Which does to the t  and which to the S

I would say from this diagram that black gets tied to the case as ground, & white AND CABLE SHIELD is signal for the high-impedance SA model.


So yeah, tie white to cable shield and run black to the mic case and see if that's right?



The SB is different.
