[Harp-L] Mic Impedance Transformer



I recently began using a Fireball-V mic.  This is a low impedance mic (150 
ohms).  It has been suggested that I us an impedance transformer which I 
understand will boost the signal through the entire range of the mic.  I've 
played at three jams with the mic and have received comments that the sound was 
a tinny.  My amp is a 60 watt all tube, Pignose G60VR, upgraded with a Weber 
California 4 ohm speaker. With a JT-30 or even a Shaker Dynamic mic the sound range is much more full.

 
Before I purchase a transformer, can anyone enlighten me on exactly what I 
can expect it to do in terms of what changes I will hear in the sound/tone?  I 
hope that I will hear a noticeable increase in the lower frequencies that are 
part of the full resonance of any harp in any key.  That's based on my limited 
knowledge of the physics of sound.
