( SOUND EXAMPLES BELOW↓)
Direct-powered microphones (such as DPA4003, 4041S, and similar) are known for its top-notch sound performance impossible for P48 models. But.. such mics have important cons:
-Incompatible with P48 when you need it.
- Requires special multi-wire cables.
- You are always tied to the PSU (or special pre).
We've found a solution to the problem.
Reso Xpower is a powering architecture implemented in Reso mics allowing you getting a performance of direct powered mics without special cables, by using high voltage phantom power 100V. But that's not all. At P48 the same microphones are providing the performance of the best P48 mics. Magic ? Naah. This possible by long original research, meticulous design and modern high-speed semiconductors.
This is how it works:
-The microphone has a regular XLR-3 connector.
-Being connected to P48 pre it works at max performance possible for P48 mic in terms of sound and specs. (for instance Reso X41P has 124dB dynamic range).
-When you need the top transient accuracy and dynamic range, you can connect the external P100 phantom power source. The microphone will automatically change its mode to getting best performance possible depending on powering used.
-No special cables, all XLR-3 conectors. The P100 PSU can be connected as an insert in any spot of mic line ( e.g. close to preamps).
-100% safe for all P48 environment. PSU has a safety system, when mic is disconnected the high-voltage is blocked. If the wrong mic connected the current protection blocks it from damaging.
The Xpower is already on board of Reso X-series mics.
Sound examples. Two pairs of X41P on the same bar, P48 vs P100.
