Anybody have any experience with these vintage tube shotguns for recording on set sound? I have an opportunity to buy one... might be an upgrade from my Audio Technica mic?
If it really is a 406 T it will require T-power, not phantom power. There is the potential of damaging the mic if you plug it into phantom power. A decent discussion of all the pertinent details - including T to 48V adapters - can be read here:
