The sound from the speakers should be the same when talking into either microphone or directly between them if they are in phase with each other. If the sound drops drastically, or if a dead spot is found when talking between the two microphones, either the microphones or their cables (low impedance only) are out of phase. All cables and microphones should be tested in this manner to insure that they are in phase with each other. To change the phase of a low-impedance microphone cable, either use a Shure A15PRS Phase Reverser or in- terchange the wires connected to pins 2 and 3 of the connector. To change the phase of a microphone, the microphone cartridge leads must be interchanged (see Figure 4). This should be performed by your dealer, the Shure Factory Service Department, or other qualified service personnel.
