Here is my design for a low noise mic amp. It makes unbalanced mics that are
unsuitable for long leads, as good as any phantom powered balanced mic.
SPECIFICATION

Reasonably RF immune!
Balanced Floating output 0dBm Max!

HOW IT WORKS
Based on a simple long tail pair amp, but with the balanced output heavily
shunted. The gain is determined by the series emitter 150R, compared to the
collector shunt 680R, & it is enough to mask cable noise, but not overload
mixer mic inputs.
The shunting brings down the high output Z to about 600ê to drive screened
balanced cable well, & also gives it effectively a good floating output, almost
like a transformer, but without the quality issues. (e.g. AC grounding either
output, does not alter the balanced output difference level!)
The amp input is RF filtered by the RFC (>6 turns of fine enamelled wire on a
tiny ferrite bead) & the 1nF cap. The amp output leads are also RF decoupled by
2 series 68R & 2 1nF caps on the collectors.
The LF response is tailored by the input u1 cap, the 1uF cap goes down to 1/10
of the frequency, keeping the LF output phases @ 180ø. The 1uF also ensures
there is very little signal lost (unbalancing) across the current sharing 1K.
For a stereo preamp the LED can be shared with a 2nd channel amp too, without
any problems.
LAYOUT
Construction of the stereo prototype was in a standard old tobacco tin, which
gives a easy to solder to sheilded box & room for XLRs fitted internally.
