Trying to wire up a set of countryman b3's. they came witrh the ta4f with only pins 1,2,3 used. 1 was ground(with ground and black wire both), 3 had the red wire and 2 and 3 are jumped together with a resisitor. Trying to put these to ta3f with no luck? Anyone got any ides. Seems easy but can't seem to get it
well after some tinkering i think i just got it let me know if it sounds right. ta3f pin 1 ground, pin 3 black and jumpered between 1 and 3 is the resistor and pin 2 is red(which i assume is signal since now i get a nice clear sound from it)

What are you using to power this?
If you're using a "standard" AT phantom power adapter, then you should probably have:
- pin 1: black and shield
pin 2: red
resistor between pin 2 and pin 3.
Note that this is a different topology than the Shure connector (Shure uses a source resistor, this uses a drain resistor).
The standard AT connector supplies battery (~5V) on pin 3, and takes audio input on pin 2.

Just figured it out, should be good to go
Would love to see pictures of this.
