Does XLR mic work with PC?

[Bromundo]

Hi, im wondering if a mic such as a Sennheiser e835 will work on my PC with a XLR to 3.5mm cable or if i need additional phantom power. My motherboard is a Maximus VI Formula if it makes a difference what the sound card is, thanks!

It should, since the XLR to Jack gives you a 2 channel analogue input which is standard.

Hi
Yes that will work with a 3.5mm adaptor as it is a dynamic mic,only condensor mics require external power.
