NOTE:
Start with both- bass and treble EQ on your amp/PA turned all the way down. Then add
frequencies to your liking.
NOTE:
If you experience a phase problem, we offer an inexpensive
XLR-Phase-Reverse-Adapter
that reverses pin 2 and 3 of the XLR cable, a simple and effective fix. Please call K&K to order.
The Meridian Mic can also be used with the
K&K Quantum Blender
.
The microphone itself does
not work on 48V phantom power! It is powered with 5 volts by the preamp.
Please slide the supplied protective tubing over the windscreen before you put your mic into the
box. This protects the windscreen foam from becoming mis-shaped.

Special note regarding phantom power:
The Meridian preamp works on 12-48 volt phantom power or on 12VDC power via a suitable power
supply like the one we sell for this microphone system.
Phantom power is unfortunately not 100% standardized and differs in respect to how clean and
hum-free it is. “Dirty” phantom power may introduce a more or less noticeable hum into the signal
and when connected to preamp devices, the preamp circuit naturally amplifies this noise. In
situations you need studio quality noise specifications we recommend to power the Meridian
preamp with its designated 12VDC power supply and switch the phantom power supply off.
This will guarantee noise free operation.
