Hello HG chefs,

Although I still owe you a recording that I have just made today with my
K&K, through a quite rubbish amplifier, as a result of many hours of
experimenting, I'd like to go a step further.

Could anybody recommend a really affordable preamp + phantom power in one
box, that is suitable to connect the K&K Big Twin and a headworn
unidirectional condenser microphone with an amplifier?
What specs I should be looking for?

I don't really need the preamp with the Big Twin that much, rather want a
separate box of phantom power, which solves some problems at gigs, I can use
local PA systems without me carrying mine (which is, as I mentioned,
rubbish). But once I invest into a phantom power, why not invest into a
preamp with phantom power... Any ideas?

Thanks, Cecilia

PS This conversation about hots, pots, hotpots and other stuff sounds very
interesting, although I can only guess you are still talking about hurdy
gurdies and not your dinners... So, if you answer my question, please bear
in mind my "high-level" of competency in this field:-)
