Title: Turner 99 Microphone
Post by: ashart on March 30, 2017, 05:21:40 PM
I'm interested in the sensitivity of a Turner 99 dynamic microphone.

An old Turner catalog shows it as -52 Db., but does not state the reference.

In that same old catalog, is a different "new" dynamic mic spec'd at -56 Db below 1 v/bar.

Most microphone manufacturers spec'd their mics relative to 1 v/microbar.

Not knowing the difference between "ordinary" mics and "new" mics gives me a headache when trying to calculate proper 99 output voltage.

Is there a Turner 99 data sheet out there?  Any other ideas?  [Please don't tell me just to get a D104 - I already have several!]  :)
 
Thanks.
