[Boatanchors] Microphones

[Glen Zook]

Actually, most microphones on "modern" equipment are "medium impedance".  A true "low impedance" microphone generally has an impedance below 50-ohms and most have an impedance of under 20-ohms.  Almost all of these microphones are carbon, or "carbon compatible" types.

100 to 10K is the frequency response.  There is no particular  impedance 
choice. Some rigs are lowZ and others are hi Z.  If the rig you  want to use 
that particular mic is Hi Z,  matching transformers are  available to make 
the conversion.
