I think the NT4 via battery maybe nosier than via phantom.  - Im not sure w=
hen using battery power if the Rode mics are unbalanced?

Not quite related...

Cautionary tale:
Watch the headphone level with the FR2-LE, I recenty popped the left speake=
r element of my Sennheiser HD280 headphones. I move an NT1A around while it=
 was still on- I guess the lows were *really* low... pop went the speaker..=
. FR2-LE is fine, interesting it allowed such a high level to the headphone=
 to destroy them.

-Mike.
Thinking of the NTG3...
