Q: 10. does this mic require phantom power? or "bias power?" thanks!

A: Because the Point Source Audio CM-i3-PH Intercom Headset with 3.5mm Plug is designed for use with iOS intercom applications, we can presume that if power is needed, it is powered via a small amount of voltage received through connection to an iOS device. This is typically between 2-5V and often referred to as "plug-in" power. The power specifications for the CM-i3-PH are not specified, and the microphone element is actually categorized as dyamic/self-powered, which may indicate that it does not require any power from its source connection.
