Discount ❤️ Golden Age Project Pre-73 DLX Premier Microphone Preamp 🌟

FEATURES:

• ​Vintage style electronics. No integrated circuits in the signal path
• All soldered, connector-free internal design for the purest and most reliable signal path, the only connector used is for the gain switch
• UK-made Carnhill mic input and line output transformers and highpass inductor, the line input uses a custom transformer and the circuit board is prepared for the Carnhill tone, the output is balanced and fully floating and can drive a 600 ohm load up to about 28 dBu
• Traditional 23-position 1073-style gain switch that is also used to select the mic or the line input jack
• Combo XLR/TRS mic and line input jacks and separate output XLR and TRS jacks for flexible connections
• A Neutrik XLR/TRS combo jack with gold over nickel plated bronze contacts is used for the mic input
• Maximum gain on the mic input is 80 dB, enough to handle passive ribbon mics with quiet sound sources
• Switchable impedance on the mic input, 1200 or 300 ohms. Changing the load impedance will change the tone of many mics
• Gain range on the line input: -20 to + 10 dB
• An active instrument input for guitar and bass that passes the signal through the mic input transformer, with selectable input impedance, hi-Z or 100 kohm, by an internal jumper
• Switchable phantom power and absolute phase.
• Traditional gain switch plastic knob and metal knobs for the other controls
• The phantom power can deliver up to 10 mA according to the specification standard, the 6.8 kohm phantom power resistors are matched to within 0.1% to maintain good common-mode rejection in the circuit
• Selectable 1073-style inductor based highpass filter at 50, 80, 160 or 300 Hz with a slope of 18 dB/octave
• Selectable two position AIR EQ with a boost of about 3 or 6 dB at around 30 kHz
• Insert jack for inserting EQs and other units, the insert jack can be switched in/out from the front panel – an internal jumper can select if the insert jack always has an output signal or not
• The output level control makes it possible to make fine gain adjustments and also to overload the main gain stage(s) for more character and then lower the signal to a suitable level before the output stage
• An output pad allows the user to add character by attenuating the output signal after the output transformer by -7, -14, -21 or -28 dB for overdriving the output stage and the output transformer by adding gain and then lower the output signal to a suitable level with the pad
• A simple but effective 4-step LED output level meter
• Tantalum and polystyrene capacitors in the traditional positions, Neutrik XLR/TRS combo jack is used for the mic input
• Switches on the back panel for 600 ohm output termination and ground lift
• Relays are used to control internal switching for phantom power, mic low-Z, insert and DI for shorter circuit board signal paths. The relays are controlled by front panel switches
• Circuit board star grounding scheme
• Power supply with separate regulators for the audio circuit and the relay and LED circuit
• External power supply to avoid interaction with the audio circuits and transformers
• A solid build quality that will last many years of normal use
