Also under the hood is Fredenstein's proprietary OPA2 discrete audio operational amplifier. Not a clone of an older design; the OPA2 is new technology with matched, integrated dual input transistors that greatly improve upon the specifications of vintage op-amps. Like vintage units, however, it's a socketed design with industry-standard pin-out that you can swap without tools. The OPA2 (along with the high-quality transformer) is key to this preamp's sonic wizardry. At Sweetwater, we've put the Artistic MicPre Plus to the test, and we like what we're hearing. It's a tremendous value, and a great addition to your 500 Series rack.Fredenstein Artistic MicPre Plus Features: High-performance 500 Series microphone preamp 100% discrete signal path 65dB of gain handles your low-output dynamic and passive ribbon mics US-made steel-core output transformer for big, clear, punchy sound Proprietary OPA2 op-amp for vintage tone with state-of-the-art performance 20dB Pad, switchable polarity, selectable input impedance, and 48V phantom power SpecificationDetail Preamp Type 500 Series Solid State Preamp Number of Channels 1 Frequency Response 20Hz-20kHz (±1 dB) Phantom Power Yes Pads -20dB Polarity Switch Yes Analog Inputs 1 x 1/4" (DI) Module Slot Size Single RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
