I cannot because i don't know what "Impendance" means.
Although I do know that "Omni-Directional" means less fun in the monitors.
Actually you should always call me when you have special requests on tech riders like that, you'd be surprised how quickly I can whip up a convincing and fully functional 'MacGuffin' !
For example in a case like this I would have custom made you for a one time use only a violet AES/EBU microphone cable fitted with black Neutrik NC3-F/MXX series connectors adorned with Swarovski elements. You could have pointed out to the client the 110 Ohm denotation and how it was the lowest possible 'impendance' rating a microphone cable could have and still be ANSI rated for safe use with phantom power but that a UL listing was out of the question as they simply had not caught up yet with the technology. You would have also added that the local tech who constructed it had tuned the backshell cavity resonance for optimum performance in the 'Omni' polar region. By the way you had admin add the extra charge to the bill.
The best part is that you would have solidified the client's belief in their own crap much to the chagrin of the downstream techs.
Woohoo post six hundred and sixty six!
Woe to you oh earth and sea, for the devil sends the beast with wrath, for he knows the time is short.
Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number..............
