Golden Age Project PRE-73 DLX Mono Mic/Line Preamp

The Golden Age PRE-73 DLX is a vintage-style mic, line and instrument pre amp. Following on from the incredibly popular Pre 73, the DLX builds on the design by adding a high pass filter circuit, a selectable input pad as well as a switchable insert section for adding compressors and EQ’s into the signal path.

The PRE-73 DLX is based on the much coveted Neve 1073 and imparts a warm and coloured tone by adding subtle harmonics, and thick transformer sound which is excellent for bass and vocals or anything you want to add a bit density to.

The main features of the Pre 73 DLX include:

• Vintage Style electronics
• No intergrated circuits in the signal path
• Maximum gain on the mic input: 80 dB
• Gain range on the Line input: -20 to + 10 dB
• Switchable impedance on the mic input, 1200 or 300 Ohms, will change the tone of most mics
• 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
• Combo XLR/TRS input jacks and separate output XLR and TRS jacks for flexible connections
• Insert jack for inserting EQ´s and other units
• External high power power supply to avoid interaction with the audio circuits and transformers
• A solid build quality that will last many years of normal use
