Power supply

The C414 XLS and C414 XLII provide extremely low self‑noise yet high headroom. The
only way to meet these strict engineering requirements was to limit the powering options
for both microphones to 48 V phantom power to IEC 61938 only. This standard requires a
positive voltage of 48 V with reference to the cable shield.
Risk of damage
Do not connect the microphone to any power supply other than a phantom power source
(input with phantom power or external IEC 61938 standard phantom power supply) with
a floating connector, using a balanced cable with studio grade connectors to IEC 268-12
only. This is the only way to ensure safe and reliable operation.
