IIWY, I would try and get inside the mic and change the phase, as it will
always be an oddball, or, send it back. If you can't get inside the out-of
phase mic and/or can't be bothered to send it back, then I would make up a
short back-to-back XLR cable wired out of phase, and mark the mic and
cable so you always use the short cable with that mic. This way you also
don't void the warranty if you have to send it back for any other reason.



Good suggestion, but I think I *am* bovered also and will probably have a
bit of a fiddle with it myself! I don't much like sending stuff back (unless
it's dead or broken) if I can avoid it - it's very often more hassle than a
fix and I often find there's summat disappointing with a 'replacement'....??

(Talking in a private/domestic/own use 'one-offs' sense here - 'production
components' or sales stock would be a different thing entirely....)
