OK, I have 3 421's, 2 are black = MD421U & the other is an older White/cream colored MD421HL.
Years ago I had a guy convert the old style (small 3 pin/2 position switch = M/S) to an XLR (5 position switch M/S) he ordered it from SENNHEISER.
I just recently noticed it's out of phase. I don't understand what's going on.
There is BLACK, RED & GREEN wires going from the mic to the Jack/Switch...
I found what I thought to be the GND - Black, conected to pin 1 & the plugs case (used ohm meter)
The RED wire was connected to pin 3
The GREEN to pin 2
So I flipped pin 2 & 3/Green & Red & it DIDN'T flip the Phase :shock:
What is happening here :?:
Also, I've read that the HL versions have HI & LOW impedence... Is the impedence tranny built inside the old plug :?:
Here are some pics of what I've got.
Please HELP!
