Line: +22 dBu minimum with 100k ohm load
+20 dBu minimum with 600 ohm load
Tape: +11 dBu (2.75 V RMS) minimum with 100k ohm load
Dynamic Range:
110 dB minimum
THD + Noise:
0.05% maximum
(from 50 Hz to 22 kHz @ +4 dBu output level, 22 Hz – 22 kHz
filter bandwidth, gain control at 50%, phantom off)
Common Mode Rejection Ratio:

1
/
8
in.)): Unbalanced, tip–left, ring–right, sleeve–
ground, 2.4k ohm output impedance
High Pass Filters:
80 Hz or 160 Hz (switch selectable), 6 dB per octave
Phantom Power:
15 V through 680 ohm resistors or 48 V through 6.8k resistors
(switch selectable)
Limiter:
Thresholds independently adjustable from
+6 dBu to +18 dBu
10:1 limiting ratio

Amber/Red LED indicates limiting/clipping
Dual mono or stereo linked
Internal Voltage Rails:
+15 V and –15 V, regulated
Metering:
7 segment GaN (Gallium Nitride) meter with 3 intensities
Peak responding
Power:
Internal: 2 AA batteries
External: 5 – 14 VDC via threaded coaxial connector* (5.5 mm
outer diameter, 2.1 mm inner diameter); Pin positive, sleeve neg-
ative; Voltages above 14 VDC cause no damage to unit, but will
open an internal poly fuse that will reset when voltage is re-
moved.
*Threaded coaxial connector provided for use with power sup-
plies not equipped. For instructions on how to solder this connec-
tor to a Shure PS20, see Figure 5.
Power LED:
Dual-color LED indicates following:
Green—external DC power or good battery.
Red—less than 1 hour of battery life remaining (with phantom
power off).
