Neumann KM56 & N52a

I'm trying to figure out how to wire my Neumann KM56 to a Neumann N52a power supply. I'd like to know which pins on the 6 pin tuchel connector at the mic go to which pins on the rectangular 12 pin tuchel connector (1a to 6a & 1b to 6b) on the N52a. I'm aware that 220vac goes to 6a and 6b but I'm unsure of the rest.

Neumann BCM104 vs. . AKG C414

I'm trying to decide on a vocal mic for my home studio. I've used a borrowed AKG C414 for while on vocals and on acoustic instruments for the last couple of years and am about to purchase a mic of my own. I've read some on the Neumann BCM104 and I'm wondering how it compares to the AKG. I'll mostly be tracking male vocals/country music. Anyone have any input? thnx!
