Golden Age Project PREQ-73 Premier

- Vintage Style electronics. No integrated circuits in the signal path.

- Maximum gain in mic mode is 80 dB, enough to handle passive ribbon mics with quiet sound sources.

- Classic 23-position Gain/Line switch with 5 dB steps and a gain range of 20 to 80 dB for mic and -10 to +20 dB for line.

- A two band LF (+/-15 dB) and HF (+/-20 dB) shelving equalizer with two selectable frequencies for each band.

- Inductor based +/- 15 dB midrange equalizer section with three selectable frequencies. The lowest one is selectable between 350 and 700 Hz.

- Switchable impedance in mic mode, 1200 or 300 Ohm, will change the tone of most mics. The input impedance in line mode is 10 kOhm.

- Switchable phantom power and absolute phase.

- A high-impedance instrument input for any sound module, electric guitar or bass.

- A simple but effective 4-step LED output level meter.

- The output level control makes it possible to make fine gain adjustments and also to overload the main gain stage(s) for more character.

- Separate combo XLR/TRS jack for the MIC and LINE input and separate output XLR and TRS jacks for flexible connections.

- Selectable 600 Ohm output termination.

- Classic style knobs and buttons.

- Prepared for mounting one ot two units in the UNITE PREMIER rack kit. It can also be mounted in one of the other UNITE rack kits and combined with --the red and black Golden Age Project products.

- Connector free internal wiring, all connections except the ones to the gain switch --are soldered for the purest signal and most longterm stable signal path.

- UK made Carnhill microphone input and line output transformers.

- The pcb is prepared for the Carnhill 9046M line input transformer.

- Polystyrene capacitors in the amplifier circuits.

- Tantalum capacitors in the signal path.

- Beefed up power supply.

- Sturdy toggle switches with gold plated contacts.
