Hello there,

I was wondering whether anyone here has experience with running long
cable runs with electret mics such as Telinga, Primo EM172 etc. (stuff
ending with minijack).
I am talking like 15+ meters, in nature (far from urban EMI). I wonder
how much can such thing affect quality.
One thing that comes to mind is external preamp next to mics, which
would boost their level. But is it really necessary?

I generally use SD 702 for my recording, but love to have a minimalist
hiking setup with Olympus LS-11 and pair of Primo mics with long cable.

Regards,
Jonas
