The PRE-73 Jr PREMIER is a one-channel vintage style microphone- and instrument preamplifier in a small footprint allowing 4 units to be racked in a single rack space using the UnitePremier rack kit.

The signal path uses only discrete components like resistors, capacitors and transistors. The in-and output is transformer balanced, using two different transformers, each one optimized for its purpose. This is the way audio components were built before integrated circuits became available.

Bullet Points

• Vintage Style class
• A electronics. No integrated circuits in the signal path. No surface mount components.
• GAIN switch range 20 - 70 dB.
• Selectable two position high frequency AIR boost eq, 3 or 6 dB @ 30 kHz.
• Selectable 6 dB/octave two frequency high pass filter at around 40 (HP1) and 170 Hz (HP2).
• Switchable phantom power and absolute phase.
• A high-impedance instrument input for any sound module, electric guitar or bass.
• A simple signal LED indicator.
• The output level control makes it possible to do fine gain adjustments and also to overload the main gain stage for more character and then lower the signal to a suitable level before the output stage.
• Combo XLR/TRS input jack and separate output XLR and TRS jacks for flexible connections.
• Insert jack for inserting EQ ́s and other units.
• UK-made Carnhill input and output transformers, tantalum and plustyrene capacitors and mostly soldered internal connections.
• External power supply to avoid interaction with the audio circuits and transformers.
• The small format makes it possible to mount 4 units in our 19-inch rack kits.
• A solid build quality that will last many years of normal use.
