pverrando Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 After a successful year of upgrading Schoeps CMC4 microphones to 48V phantom, I'd like make the JWsound community aware of the www.416Tupgrade.com service, for conversion of T-powered MKH Sennheiser series microphones to 48V phantom power. The upgrade is available for 416, 415, 816, 815, 415 and 406 microphones. http://www.416Tupgrade.com Thank you Pete Verrando Quote
Philip Perkins Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 6 CMC4s and 1 416T later--I'm a fan and endorser of the work of Mr. Verrando! I'm finally "T"-free! Quote
berniebeaudry Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 I thought low/no T was a bad thing for guys our age.... :] Quote
Philip Perkins Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 Not if "T" stands for "Tonader"! Good riddance! Quote
Ze Frias Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 I've had quite a few friends use Pete's T-to-48V upgrade service, and they're all very satisfied. Quote
chrisyking Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Now then... this is very useful. Thanks chaps can get my 416 done. Ooh and I even have an old 815 they can do! Quote
chrismedr Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 very cool. i'm interested in converting a 416T, has anybody sent one in from europe and if so what were the shipping costs and how did you handle import tax problems? Quote

pverrando Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Posted February 10, 2016 Chrismedr, import taxes are waived, as the shipment can be classified as a repair, to be returned after the service. On the customs form, specifiy "return for repair", and I specify "return from repair" when shipping back to you. The cost of shipping has been roughly US$25 worldwide using your country's postal service, YMMV. Those who have chosen to insure shipments, do so for roughly US$600 (enough to make the postal service pay attention and automatically requiring a signature upon delivery). Save shipping weight as much as practical by not including heavy mic enclosures in the package. Thanks for asking. Pete Verrando www.416Tupgrade.com Quote
