Aphex 1100 Class A Tube Mic PreAmp
Description:
Aphex Systems Ltd. has introduced the model 1100 Discrete Class A Microphone Tube Preamplifier. Offering the lowest noise possible, 24-bit 96 kHz digital outputs and Aphex’s exclusive MicLim protection circuit, the dual channel 1100 is designed for professional recording, broadcast and production in the digital or analog domains. Aphex innovations and patents allow the 1100 to deliver an EIN specification of -135dB. The MicLim circuit adds an additional 20dB of headroom, making it virtually impossible to overload the preamp. Since the A/D converter is scaled to clip at the same point as the mic preamp, the digital conversion will be at the highest possible resolution without overload. Aphex’s patented tube circuitry provides the open, present, real and warm sound. “Our goal with the 1100 is to offer a mic preamp which fulfills all the specifications of a world-class preamp, but goes beyond this in terms of sonic performance and features,” stated Aphex founder and president Marvin Caesar. “The 1100 exhibits clearly superlative features, specifications and performance that are unsurpassed by any preamp today.” The 1100’s EIN specification of -135dB is as much as 10dB better than some of the esoteric preamps on the market. An additional 20dB of headroom is available due to two Aphex innovations. First, the exclusive MicLim intelligently detects and limits the microphone signal prior to preamplification to prevent clipping. Second, the exclusive low frequency cancellation filter (LoCaf) allows up to 20dB of low frequency cut without using any headroom or triggering MicLim. The filter is tunable in 11 steps from 30 to 195 Hz.
