Hello again,
I'm having issues with this microphone. When turned on it will suddenly start making a lot of noise which either disappears by itself, or will stop when the mic is tapped lightly at the XLR end.
This is the European t-power version (i.e. 12V instead of 48). The battery operated unit that provides phantom power to the mic (MZA14TU) delivers a steady 12.6 volts so I don't see that being the issue.
I figured I'd post here to see if anyone has some experience with this issue or microphone before I send it over to Sennheiser where they'll probably overcharge me just to replace a cap. I'd appreciate any help/tip/advice.
Following is a link of the noise the mic makes taken from a file I recorded:

Thanks in advance for your help!
Cheers
