Sony ECM Mic Specifications

Date of Review: Jun 17, 2007

The Bottom Line:  I would suggest to the manufacturers that they be more specific in their spec sheets concerning voltages, epecially where it concerns microphones. Not all of us are engineers.
Why does Sony not SPECIFY what they mean by PLUG IN POWER CAPABILITY. To those of us in the recording industry, that typically means 48 volt phantom power. In NONE of the ads from various dealers, nor the official Sony site....do they explain what "plug in power capability" specifically is. It will run off a tiny battery, but will the ECM-DS70P mics run on 48 volts of phantom power? I would like to buy several of the ECM-DS70P Electret Stereo Mics, but will not do so until I know if they will operate on phantom power of 48 volts. I checked the SONY Official Site and there's NOTHING on there from which to learn this information. Being a 28 yr. retired broadcaster, I would love to use this mic to help produce some sacred music radio programs for national broadcast, using them as interview mics for special opinions and commentary on the great music of the church, which I plan to get from musicians involved in church music production. I want commentary from them about the different styles of church music, etc, but I cannot bring myself to purchase microphones when I cannot decipher what the manufacturer means when they do not specify exactly what voltages they mean in their specifications. Just the comment "plug in power capability" is not enough to make a decision about purchasing and using this particular product. I would not want to plug in a Sony Electret mic to a 48 volt phantom mic input and have the mic immediately start frying.

Pros
Looks like a really nice Mic that should meet my needs depending upon power.
Cons
No information on what voltage is specified for "plug in powered".
