Need two high-performance balanced-to-SE mic transformers, approximate maximum $50ea.
A 200-Ohm battery powered stereo condenser mic will connect to the external mic input of a camcorder.
I'll adapt any physical form to the application.
Several impedance matching were found, but strangely no balanced-to-SE.
TIA!

You can hook up any trafo single ended, just ground one output leg and don't use the center tap if there is one.
You might be able to wire the microphone for unbalanced operation and eliminate the transformers.
I presume the shorter the mic cable and/or less the RF problem, the more likely the best sound quality will be just to employ the mic SE without an active external balanced mic preamp.
And conversely: The longer the cable and/or the more the RF problem, the more likely will the sound quality improve by adding an active balanced preamp in series between the mic cable output and just a few inches in front of the SE input.
Is this "sound" thinking? (no pun intended)
