Re: [Harp-L] changing impedance on 545

Steve, unfortunately it has to be switched from the inside. You might  
try some solvent like acetone to see if you can soften that adhesive  
and get the XLR connector out - if you can then you could glue it back  
in.

Subject: Re: [Harp-L] changing impedance on 545

Here¹s a new wrinkle.

I have a 545SD with the on off switch that works great as a low  
impedance

mic, but I¹d like to convert it to HiZ. The problem is, someone  
fudged the

set screw up and then poured some kind of glue into the body so as  
to keep

that end from falling out (I guess). Bottom line is, despite an hour  
of

trying to get it out, I can¹t. So my question would be:

Is there any way of converting the impedance output in the output  
cord? Or

does it have to be switched on the inside?
