Adrian & Wayne,
I checked the Panasonic web site for this product line. They are discontinuing all of the wideband omnidirectional models! I will see if DigiKey still has stock.
All electret condenser mics I have seen require a phantom DC supply. The apps note schematic,
http://www.panasonic.com/industrial/components/pdf/em16_microphone%20schematic_dne.pdf, does show a 2VDC supply and load resistor needing to be hooked up.
Is this the arrangement you use? Not a major thing, but I would need to build or buy a phantom power unit since my preamp does not supply any. It does make it more than a $2 item by then.
Just wondering if the equipment you use has phantom power that is compatible? Especially since many phantom power mic inputs exceed the 10V max for this device.
