**Q: New mic won't work on my soundcard, desk mixer or a wireless system. my system is the akg pt40pro, i tried an adaptor aswell. didn't work. faulty?**
A: Hello, have you used a preamp? Since it is a condenser microphone you will have to use a preamp to adapt. You may use Shure RPM626.
Regards,
Sascha from Shure

**Q: My soundcard and mixer both got 48v phantom power, is this sufficient Enough as a preamp for the mic to work?**
A: Hello, phantom power is not a preamp, it is the power for the preamp that you can engage. So you need phantom power to power the RPM626 preamp that you need to use PGA98H-TQG wired with your mixer or soundcard.
Regards,
Sascha from Shure

**Q: Can i connect this microphone into the desk with a mic lead (xlr) without using a wireless system.  do i need a special connectorto do this.**
A: Hello, in order to use PGA98H-TQG wired into the desk you need a Shure preamp lie RPM627, RK100PK (+10 dB) or RPM400TQG.
