AT899 to Sennheiser


Michael Render

Recommended Posts

As I recall for the SK-100 bodypack transmitter,  on most three wire lavs (audio, bias and ground/shield) both the audio and bias current wires go to the Tip. Cable shield to Ring and Sleeve. I have 2 AT-899s, but they are wired to a TA-5 (Lectro) plug. Both have stiff cables, so I never use them. They are old and later builds allegedly have softer,  more flexible cable.

Rick, I believe you are right. I found this diagram on the Sennheiser site. So if the center picture is correct, Mic and Bias to tip Ring and Sleeve tied to ground.

No reasons to challenge Rick, but Michael maybe contact AT's US office which appears to be just down the road from you:

Good idea but I already asked them about the pin outs and they supplied me the info for the AT899.

The marketing director at AT and I were both in each other's wedding parties. Our sons are best friends.
