HV-3D-8 8-Channel Microphone Preamp
This product has an estimated 3-5 day shipment processing time.
Authentic Transparency for Unrestricted Creativity
- Unsurpassed ambience retrieval
- Transformerless design with matched hi-speed discrete transistor octet has +23 dBu input headroom: no attenuator “pads” needed
- Uncolored timbral accuracy at all dynamic levels
- Entirely balanced audio path with precision components maintains signal integrity: THD under 5 ppm (.0005%)
- Effortless, vividly realistic musical performance
- Laser-trimmed FET-based output stage has 32 dB headroom: drives 1000 foot (300 m) cable runs with ease
- Standard 36-step gain controls (1.5 dB per step) are stereo matched to .08 dB
- Ultra-clean universal power supply
- Grayhill mil-spec gold switching
- Welded 16 gauge steel rack chassis
- Lovingly hand-crafted in Northern California
