Subject: 545 cord/ Astatic XLR

During the recent Blues Blaster discussion someone mentioned that the
pin 3 hot XLR configuration that Astatic uses is the same for a Shure
545 wired high impedance. Sure is, thanks, I never knew that. Gary's
post regarding his 545 for sale prompted me to drag out a 545 Shure I've
had for over a decade, I've only tried using it with a standard XLR
configured cord and a lo/hi impedance adapter and I've never much liked
the mic. I plugged in my pin 3 hot XLR and voilá, the microphone was
transformed. Just one of those things, I'd been given the mic in a pile
of other stuff years ago and never paid any atention to it. I think it
might supplant the 520D I've used for the last decade and a half.
Really a great microphone, thanks for the cord tip again. fjm
