NQ5T,

    You are exactly right.  For even asking the question, 
I deserved a condescending response.  Thank you for 
jumping in there and giving me one.

  No cure?  It's called "make your own cable".  How hard can that be?  I know
  that no one has a clue how to do anything anymore if you can't buy it
  on-line, but cables aren't exactly rocket science.

  Use high qulity cable.  I'm not familiar with Heil cable, but I presume it's
  ok.  There are plenty of others around.  I generally use Canare for any
  critical audio work -- double shield, two balanced pairs, hard to beat.
  Trace the cable that came with the mic and build one just like it -- only
  LONGER.
