Studio Sound Magazine UK- Best Preamp 2001 - Reader's Choice MICROPHONE INPUT
The AD2022 incorporates the most advanced high-performance microphone transformer available. Split low-ratio primary windings are carefully combined within a custom mu-metal core for extended smooth frequency response and very low distortion. Sealer silver relays are used for minimal signal invasion. The input signal selector, high pass filter, polarity-phase reverse, +48v power and the 20dB input attenuator all utilize local sealed relay operation. A variable passive high pass filter provides a minimum phase shift design while eliminating low frequency rumble, wind noise and mechanical vibration at sub sonic frequencies. SYMMETRICAL PURE CLASS A DESIGN
Two 100% discrete, high-voltage, symmetrical Pure Class A signal amplifiers are utilized per channel. The first operates in a cascaded-cascode FET configuration while the second stage amplifier is fully bipolar. The twin amplifiers share the total available gain requirement. This shared architecture increases the high level headroom capability, improves transient response and doubles the internal bandwidth of the ultra-high performance pure Class A signal amplifiers. OUTPUT and METERING
High-current DC coupled, Class A discrete amplifiers are utilized for the output drive interface with +36dB capability into all known loads. Two large, high-quality analog VU meters indicate accurate signal readings while bi-color LED's offers peak indication at 0dB and +20dB. AD2022 PREAMPLIFIER SPECIFICATIONS Circuit Topology: Twin cascode FET and bipolar low level signal amplifiers, high-voltage, 100% discrete, symmetrical Pure Class A Input Type and Load: Transformer balanced low-ratio, 50, 150, 600 and 1k5 ohm input load selection Maximum Mic Level: +36dB balanced XLR pin 2 hot (with -20dB passive attenuator) Maximum Instrument Level +18dB at 100k ohms instrument input level, standard mono 1/4 inch jack Input Attenuator: -20dB resistive pre transformer primary, sealed silver relay
