In my experience with the two recorders, the lower EIN of the D50 preamp is=
 a difference you can hear when using external mics with very low self-nois=
e, like the Rode NT1A.  Mics with higher self noise, such as the Sennheiser=
 ME62, mask the difference in preamp.

These mics need a battery box to connect to the D50 or M10.  Rather than a =
battery box, you should use your Sound Devices preamp, and connect to the l=
ine input, bypassing the recorder preamp.
