The AEA RPQ 2-channel microphone preamp makes ribbon mics (and any other mic in your collection) sound great. Its high headroom, 80dB of clean gain, and ultra-quiet performance make the RPQ a great choice, while a Curve-Shaper function helps you get the best performance possible out of your ribbon mic. This function allows you to minimize proximity effect while enhancing the highs. At a rackmountable 1U, this preamp is as compact as it is versatile and powerful. Features such as JFET circuitry, a wide dynamic range, and road-tough construction help make the RPQ an impressive mic preamp!AEA RPQ 2-channel Ribbon Microphone Preamp at a Glance:Plenty of clean gain and headroomIdeal for ribbon micsAdd some "air" to your ribbonPlenty of clean gain and headroom
The AEA RPQ Ribbon Preamp with Curve-Shaping provides two channels of high-quality, high-gain, low-noise microphone preamplification, and unlike the TRP provides phantom power for active electronics. Particularly well-suited for use with ribbon microphones, it delivers the speed, precision, quietness, and headroom needed for today's high-resolution recordings. The JFET circuit design generates up to 80dB of clean and quiet gain, with extended bandwidth from below 1Hz to beyond 200kHz, for dynamic range and transient response that complements all of your microphones.Ideal for ribbon mics
The RPQ's Curve-Shaper gives you the tools to control your ribbons. Ribbon mics are capable of delivering strong sub-woofer lows, and can have a significant bass proximity effect. Such strong low-frequency content can mask high-frequency intelligibility, so the tunable LF filter was engineered to tame low-frequency energy to appropriate levels.Add some "air" to your ribbon
The HF filter enables you to extend the high end adding a little extra "presence" or "air" to the pickup. The HF filter compensates for the high-frequency roll-off that is inherent to most ribbon microphones, distant mic placement, or an overly "dry" acoustical environment.AEA RPQ 2-channel Ribbon Microphone Preamp Features:80dB of gain at 1kHz, balanced-in to balanced-outNoise figure, rms A-weighted: < 2 dBEIN < -128 dBu A-weighted, 150 W resistive sourceBalanced microphone input impedance > 10 kOGreen, red, and yellow LEDs indicate line levelXLR output max level into 600O load: +28 dBu, balanced; +22 dBu, unbalancedTRS output max level into 100 kO load: +22 dBu, unbalancedGrayhill series 71 stepped gain switchRotary potentiometers detented at 12:00 o'clock positionMetallic blue and steel gray powder-coat finishSilkscreened engraved legends and single line schematicDetachable rack ears included1U steel and aluminum chassisDimensions: 17.25" W, 11" D, 1.7" HWeight: 6.75 lbs.The AEA RPQ 2-channel microphone preamp works wonders with your ribbon mic!
