For Sale is a Grace Designs Lunatec V3 Two-Channel Microphone Pre-Amplifier and Analog to Digital Converter. These are getting difficult to find since they have been discontinued by Grace Design. I am the original owner, purchased new from Sonic Sense in early 2005. In late 2007 it was sent back to Grace to fix a polarity issue due to a recall. It has performed flawlessly since.Please note this is the optical mod version offered by Grace at the time!  Due to this there is no word-clock connector.I used this for field recording the last 12 years and as such there are very minor scuffs etc but it has been babied and I've never had an issue. This thing is a tank! The last few years it has only been used 3-4 times per year.This unit also comes with custom stilts so it can stand vertically in a gear bag without cable strain.  The stilts are simply velcroed on and can be removed if you want.This is the "6-volt" version of the Lunatec V3.  I do not have a working wall wart but can include a non working one w/ a 4 pin xlr adapter (not pictured) that you may be able to fix.I will include 2 "dvd" lithium ion battery's that I used to power it.  Also includes a "y" cable to hot swap the battery's. I do not have the original box but will be shipped proper and fully insured!Features:fully balanced, transformerless designfast, musical transimpedance amplifier architectureprecision 11 position gold contact rotary switch gain controls10dB output trim controls for fine level adjustmentA/D converter with 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4 and 192 kHz sampling ratesANSR(tm) dither circuit for recording to 16-bit recorders2 position high pass filters presetable at 50-100Hz or 75-150Hz with either 6 or 12 dB per octave slope8-segment dot mode LED level meters48V phantom powerconverter section disable for battery power conservation Grace Design audiophile performance and rugged chassis construction, packaged to be portable and bombproofno electrolytic capacitors in the signal pathhighest quality metal film resistors used throughoutSpecs:A/D CONVERTER SECTIONDYNAMIC RANGE44.1kHz-192kHz, 22Hz-20kHz bandwidth 107dB44.1kHz-192kHz, A-weighted 110dBTHD+N44.1kHz-192kHz, -3dBFS, 22Hz-20kHz bandwidth -101dBFREQUENCY RESPONSEFs 44.1kHz +0.1/-0.4dB 20Hz-21kHzFs 48kHZ +0.1/-0.4dB 20Hz-22kHzFs 88.2kHz +0.1/-0.4dB 20Hz-42kHzFs 96kHz +0.1/-0.4dB 20Hz-45kHzFs 176.4kHz +0.1/-0.4dB 20Hz-75kHzFs 192kHz +0.1/-0.4dB 20Hz-82kHzMICROPHONE AMPLIFIER SECTIONFREQUENCY RESPONSE@ 60dB gain -3dB 6Hz-250kHzTHD+N@ 20dB gain +20dBu out 0.0011%@ 40dB gain +20dBu out 0.0011%@ 60dB gain +20dBu out 0.0046%INTERMODULATION DISTORTION@ 40dB gain +20dBu outSMPTE/DIN 4:1 50Hz,7k <.0025%NOISE - REFERRED TO INPUT@ 60dB gain 50 Ohm source <-130dBPHASE DEVIATION50Hz-20kHz <8°CROSSTALKEither Channel -109dBCMRR@ 60dB gain, 3.5Vcm, 1kHz 70dB@ 60dB gain, 3.5Vcm, 10kHz 80dBOutput CMRR 60dBMAXIMUM OUTPUT LEVELBalanced +25dBuUnbalanced +19dBuIMPEDANCEInput 3k OhmsOutput 300 OhmsMinimum Load Impedance 600 OhmsWEIGHT and DIMENSIONS2.6 lbs W8.25” x D5.5” x H1.7”
