Yes, if you add impedance matching. The D-104 needs a very high
impedance to transfer sound energy properly. 1.5 meg or greater. If you
have the amplified base style the impedance is a bit better but still
not for the newer rigs.
I took the amplified base out of my D-104 and replaced it with a FET
impedance buffer. I like to shock the anti-D-104 types out there by
demonstrating this mic and comparing it to my Heil ones. I get great
reviews .... and on a Paragon.
