440 Forums _ Microphones _ Phantom Power On Tube Mic Not Working

Posted by: Seth Peterson Fri 4 May 2007, 23:05

I have two adk A-51 large condenser. One has dropped in signal level intensely. I noticed that when I turn on and off the phantom power on my focusrite pre amp it dosen't change sognal level, where as the other mic makes the whole powering up wind noise and has a much greater level. This makes me to believe that the phantom power is not working for this mic. I'm over warrenty and I'd like to at least salvage the mic. Any ideas for repair shops, websites, or even if this is possible or worth it. And yes I switch cables channels the whole trouble shooting.
thanks

Maybe the tube is dead too?

Else a solder joint or a component died for sure.
