2 Powering
Important!
The C 214 provides low self-noise (just 13 dB(A)!) yet high headroom. The micro-
phone requires a phantom power source providing 12 to 52 V as per IEC 61938.
• Do not connect the microphone to any power supply other than a phan-
tom power source (input with phantom power or external IEC 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.
