[Harp-L] Signal Loss Using Long Cables with a Hi-Z Bullet Mic




Rick,
Once upon a time i used to use an Astatic hi-z bullet mic with a 15' cord and (when needed) a 15' extension (total: 30') with no signal degradation. I also have used a hi-z Shure green bullet w/ a 20' cord and no signal degradation. Eventually, I came to my senses and stopped using bullet mics regularly. But, in my experience, you'll definitely be okay with a 30' cable. But, that may be close to the practical limit according to what I've been told, although i have no first hand experience with anything longer than 30 feet.

How long can your mic cable be with a Hi-Z Bullet Mic before you start
actually hearing signal degradation? I don't mean the rule of thumb, I mean
what limit have you observed yourself through your own experience?
