S phantom Introduction and Features

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the S phantom by Samson Audio! The S phantom is a two-
channel, 48-volt phantom power supply capable of powering most any condenser microphones,
two at a time. The S phantom is a perfect solution for applications where the use of condenser
microphones is desired and the mixer, recorder, PA, or amplifier to be used does not provide
phantom power on the microphone inputs. Whatever your exact situation, the S phantom
will provide high quality and reliable performance thanks to its solid build construction based
around the extruded aluminum chassis and oversized rubber bumper feet.
In this manual, you’ll find a more detailed description of the features of the S phantom, as well as
a guided tour through the front and rear panels, step-by-step instructions for using the S phan-
tom, and full specifications. You’ll also find a warranty card enclosed—please don’t forget to fill it
out and mail it so that you can receive online technical support and so we can send you updated
information about other Samson products in the future. Also, be sure to check out our website
