Topic: Converting Schoeps KC5 cables to separate KCY and AK I cables

If you get the PCB boards made, just give me the dimension for the box and I can get the junction box machined. Here is EMF shielding paint http://www.lessemf.com/paint.html

I have owned both factory and vark KCY cables and can't tell the difference.

On the KC5>pfa front, I ran it for the first time last night and it sounds great. Next test is to do an AB test with the PFA and CMC6.

I have run mine with the mk6 in fig8 lip of stage and it sounds great. thinking I might be selling the cmc6 bodies soon.

Wow! Words not to be taken lightly! I ran stage lip 21's for Soullive and was also extremely pleased.

Did you guys get a KCY PFA put together??  I'm curious how you are liking it.

I can't wait for my KCY PFA!!! 

will it be the same as hi and lo's?
do all kcy pfa's need a junction box?  i think that i remember jon saying that due to cable size??..

Mine will be hi and lo's first test model   I think the idea is, yes, you go KCY>binder>junction box>PFAs (each XLR connector is, technically, a PFA).

A few examples on NYCTaper/LMA.  All except the Wandering recording also have 2 channels of SBD in them, but I usually favor the aud mics pretty heavily.
