zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Phantom powered. Boosts level for longer cable runs.
Overview
The D-PowerPlug is effectively a 'Turbo Charger' for Dynamic microphones!
Features an instrumentation grade pre-amplifier circuit, D-PowerPlug will turn any standard dynamic microphone into a high level electronically balanced output device. Using conventional microphones with long multi-core cables results in a dramatic loss of signal strength, and of course sound quality due to cable resistance and capacitance. Powered by standard P48 V, D-PowerPlug can drive cables in excess of 100 meters with negligible loss of signal quality or power.
Compatible with standard XLR connectors.
