K3 Microphone Impedance

[Bob-165]

I am sure that this is covered somewhere, but I can not find it. What
impedance microphone is required for optimal performance with the K3
and what is the permissible range?

Thanks
Bob

I rather think a low impedence mike is generally preferred.  Note the pinout
information on P. 13 of the manual where a low impedence mike (approx. 600
ohms) is indicated.  However, the K3 can be used with either high or low
impedence microphones, and that is dealt with via a menu setting.  See P. 20
of the owners manual, left column, last paragraph.

Also look in Table on Pg 49  Main Menu Table under MIC SEL for  the specific
settings.
