In the spirit of Darh Aloha's headset mic's thread.

Hello Troopers

 

     I found a very good mic, Shure PGA-31. It's a little expensive, I paid 60$ and had to make some modification to fit in my Aker. It comes with a mini XLR connector, so I had to make it fit with a 1/8" jack. I used to have the Olympus ME-52W and it was ok, but this one, I can put my Aker close to full blown and before getting feedback (as what I read, it's not good for Darth Aloha lol).

 

This is what I used to use

 

This is the new one

Or use a very expensive adapter...

It's not the right wiring, mini XLR are a 5 pins system. But, the cable only has 2 wires + shield.

 

Just need to put shield and negative together on the bottom pin and positive on top pin.

The expensive adapter listed has a male end plug, it would need a female end to work
