Hope this isn’t too far off the original topic.
Interesting. I only noticed “KOSS” when I was editing photos for a blog post.
Mine must be a different production run. Here is the photo:

The Koss SB45 has an electret mic and gets good reviews. It is $25.

We’ve all read various dissertations on how the mic is good/bad or just wrong
for the use.

The Koss SB40 has a dynamic mic. I’m not surprised that a $30 headset with a
dynamic mic has problems. It looks like a clone of

Fear not, my spelling is quite different to US English. Never had a problem.

This list has been excessively active over the very long weekend. Also,

Perhaps it’s time to help the poor fellow wire his mic? Which is all he asked.
Maybe we can’t do that. Fine. It’ll probably work out of the box. And even
if it doesn’t, it’s $20 … for goodness sake. Cheaper than an

The poor guy who started this thread just wanted to know how to wire a mic. It
quickly became a discussion of whether he should even use that mic. I don't
believe we have that right. The question is about an XLR connector. We should
either answer his question or lay out.

I looked up the mic on Amazon, and it is a $20 studio look-alike. I’m sure it
has a twenty-five cent electret element under all that stuff, but cheap
electret mics are very good.
So it probably is a decent mic and it isn’t too expensive. If you like the look
of it and can power it, why not?
Operator mike technique is very important with regard to good to great audio.
I've found that my $20 Behringer 8500 sounds as good as my $100 Shure SM 58.
Likewise my $200 Heil PR 781 needs for one to pay special attention to
mike-to-mouth distance in order to control proximity effect.

I feel Jim's choice of the term "poor" is correct, but in a monetary sense.
Yes, you may be able to get the mike to communications quality with racks of
audio processing equipment

If it is a condenser mic, it's going to need a 48v power supply
They now make some nice little tiny ones...
I LOVE my condenser mic...

That mic appears to require 48 V phantom power (mic bias), which is far more
than the KX3 provides. One question on Amazon says it works with 5 V. Maybe,
maybe not.
The manual for the Elecraft MH3 mic shows the wiring needed to work with the
KX3.
I have a Neewer NW 800 mic that I want to use with a KX3. Anyone know
how to wire it up?
