Many mics expect around 48V in series with two resistors
somewhere between 5 and 10k (or half this value if the
voltage is delivered to the center tap of an input
transformer).

The (AFAIK) unofficial spec is 45-50 volts unloaded, and
being able to deliver at least 5 mA (some would say 10 mA)
which roughly corresponds to the resister values given above.

It is absolutely NOT normal that the voltage delivered to
one mic depends on the presence of others. It must not
drop even if all other lines are shorted to ground.
