PRE-11 Tabletop Single Mic Preamp
The PRE-11 microphone preamp is inspired by the classic Harrison MR-4 console (1980), offering exceptional transparency, clarity, and subtle tonal coloration in a sleek, tabletop metal enclosure, designed specifically for both home and professional studio setups. Whether you're recording vocals, acoustic instruments, or other sensitive sources, the PRE-11 provides pristine, dynamic, and detailed sound, making it an ideal choice for professional-quality recordings in any studio environment.
With +70dB gain, it effortlessly handles low-output mics and sensitive sources while maintaining an ultra-low noise floor. Its transistor-based input stage ensures tonal accuracy, adding expressive character in the mids, while the smooth, musical top-end remains free from harshness. A built-in high-pass filter cleans up low frequencies, preventing muddiness and ensuring a cleaner signal from the start.
The PRE-11 combines vintage analog warmth with modern precision, offering a professional-grade solution in an elegant, compact metal housing. The external AC transformer reduces hum and electromagnetic interference, while the internal linear DC power supply ensures stable, clean operation without switching power supply noise.
