The IMA can be quick­ly re­con­fig­ured for any of the com­bi­na­tions of con­nect­or pin- out and ex­ter­nal bi­as­ing re­sis­tance il­lus­trat­ed at right, while an ex­ter­nal adap­tor is typ­i­cal­ly cus­tom fab­ri­cat­ed for just one. Mul­ti­ple ex­ter­nal adap­tors would be a bet­ter choice if you in­tend to use your K2 in­ter­change­a­bly with sev­er­al mics hav­ing dif­fer­ent pin- outs or bi­as­ing re­quire­ments. Fur­ther, an ex­ter­nal adap­tor would be re­quired for a mi­cro­phone hav­ing a dif­fer­ent style con­nect­or than the K2, such as an RJ45, RJ25, or RJ11 jack. An ex­ter­nal adap­tor would al­so be nec­es­sary for a mi­cro­phone with dif­fer­ent MIC3 (DOWN) or MIC7 (GROUND) wiring – as is the case with Alin­co’s new­er mics – since these sig­nals are hard­wired on the IMA’s Mic Ex­tend­er board.
