Re: Protecting vintage ribbons from phantom power




That sounds like a good solution.  Another similar approach would be a 150:600 Ω step up transformer for 6 dB of free gain.  A common split winding transformer can be wired to do that.  I'd be reluctant to trust my money channel to a $35 ART box.


BTW, phantom power should not be an issue for ribbon mics, unless cables are wired wrong, or you're patching on a TRS patch bay.
