You can take advantage of the good mic pre in the FR2-LE by using two
of these adapters specifically for the wl183's (with connector):

or possibly Naiant's  PFA Phantom Adaptor for Stereo Plug-in Power
Microphone-- http://naiant.com/studiostore/cleverdevices.html -- but
no one has reported back about the performance of this unit yet as
far as I recall and you'd have to solder on a 3.5mm stereo plug on
your wl-183's.
