Topic: between jb3 and mics ???

[slowblow]

Hi there !
after reading the forum, i have bought the famous jb3 to remove my md.
i will buy now mics sp-cmc-8 .
i ask myself to know what is the best thing i can make between the mics and jb3.
a battery box spsb 6 for the mics or a sp preamp ?
cause i have read the jb3 can record hd noise if the signal is too low.
the sp preamp have not bass roll-off but will power the mics and increase the signal
i only tape in stealthy conditions so i don't want to take a lot of things in me.
anyone can help me please ?
thanks in advance,
slow

Er..are you reading the replies in your earlier thread, I wonder?

leegeddy is right on about phantom power--that's the best way to power these mics.  They are great mics when run on phantom power.

I've only got experience of the setup below, which does not distort or have HD noise, although I have a JK_labs PP9 on order for use with some CMC8s (853 caps). Another option which I will report back on once I've tested it.
