Q: 4. Hi! I would like to use this with an AVX microport receiver connected to an iPhone (acting as recorder). This haven't worked so far. The AVX puts out the max four bar level. What is the problem?

A: This adapter works with every iPod I have going back to one made in 2008. Audio levels are consistently good. I'll bump up the audio in post production at times. Use a dynamic with a hotter output (I use a Shure SM 63 or VP 64) to get higher input levels on your recordings.

Q: 7. I have bought a used Sennheiser K6/ME66 mic from Amazon and purchased KA 600i from B&H. Now on testing on a simple recorder/iphone/laptop it doesn't work. I intent to order Sony PCM M10 and record bird sounds using the Mic. I may also connect the Mic to my DSLR for recording. I have now ordered a Hosatech XVM 105F cable. What cables would work for the intended setup and give balanced output to both L&R?

A: The KA-600i is designed for use with smartphones and will not make the proper connection with a standard mic input on recorder or DSLR. Sennheiser offers the standard KA-600 for these applications. In addition when using either adapter cable you must use a battery to power the K6 module.

A: The Sescom SES-DAC1 Audio Converter has TOSLink Optical S/PDIF input and RCA coaxial S/PDIF input with analog stereo RCA output. As is, you can't connect headphones, but it should work if you use a dual RCA male to 3.5mm TRS female Y-adapter like the Hosa Technology Stereo Mini (3.5mm) Female to 2 RCA Male Y-Cable (B&H # HOYCSMF2RM).

Q: 10. Will this send and receive audio? Example: using an xlr headset with it to listen and talkback...
