Naiant IPA
Sebastian:
I don't really understand how phantom power works with the IPA. I was always under the impression that a balanced cable was necessary for phantom power to work, but the stereo version of IPA seems to have unbalanced outputs only. How would I connect a stereo IPA to a recorder that has dual phantom-powered XLR inputs?

Is that just a plain cable that routes pin 2 of the IPA to the left channel's pin 2 and pin 3 of the IPA to the right channel's pin 2? Or would a small circuit be required?
I'd be interested in the IPA basically as a backup for my tinybox. But phantom power would be nice for occasionally using the "big rig". However, that only makes sense if there's a relatively cheap way for me to wire this up. Otherwise, a simple 3.5mm to dual line adapter would probably also do the job.
Also, a completely unrelated question about the battery that the IPA uses. Are there rechargeable versions of this?
yug du nord:
would this make CCM's > Sony M10 possible??
gormenghast:
I'm under the impression all you need is ( for Schoeps ) Schoeps caps, KCY, IPA, and a M10. Is this correct?

I got my pair in the mail a week or so ago. Just got a chance to use them last weekend.
Nice easy setup and a low profile. I think the recordings sound pretty nice too.
Very similar tone compared to my old Littlebox. To my ear anyway.
I forgot to brink my small flathead to play with the gain adjustment.
Looking forward to putting them through their paces in the coming weeks.
