NOTE: The cable to the microphone should not be shielded, instead a twisted pair cable shall
be used.

NOTE: The microphone sensitivity changes with the value of R2 and R3. Usually the
microphones are characterized with 2kΩ biasing resistance, so try to keep the sum of R2 and
R3 around 2kΩ. Refer to your microphone manufacturer for the mic. characteristics.
