*** My mike came without a bias box ( my Dragon was a customer return at the
computer store ). So I made my own. It consisted of a pair of AA cells
in series with a 4.7k resistor. Packaged in a little box, with appropriate
connectors to feed the current into the microphone output. Works great,
I get "above average quality" with the Wizard.
