STAGE MONITOR & P.A. LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT
For maximum rejection of unwanted sound, place the stage monitor(s) or P.A. system loudspeaker at a 60° angle from the rear of the BETA 58A, not directly behind it. See Figure 1. Always check out the stage setup before a perfor- mance to ensure that microphone and monitor placement is optimum.

Open Circuit Voltage:
*1 Pa = 94 dB SPL
Impedance
Rated impedance is 150 W (290 W actual) for connection to microphone inputs rated low Z
Phasing
Positive pressure on diaphragm produces positive voltage on pin 2 with respect to pin 3. See Figure 4.
