Hello All,

I want to thank everyone who responded to my question regarding the Sony PC=
M-M10 and using a phantom power supply. There seems to be any number of uni=
ts that would fit the bill. Also have taken on board the advice given,regar=
ding the Audio Technica 4022 mics. They do seem to be a better choice over =
the Rode NTG-55's.
The only question I have is whether I can use this combination (M-10 and tw=
in AT4022 mics) without an external preamp device.

Many Thanks

Paul
