Details
Controls: Gain 0-76dB in 1dB steps, 20dB pad, reversible polarity, switchable HPF, 2 impedance settings (1k/200 ohm), Balanced/Single-Ended select, DC-inject function; LCD showing peak output, gain, tube currents; 99 user presets, self-calibration
I/O: Balanced in/out, transformer coupled
Notable use: Homage to the Telefunken/classic German V76 tube microphone amplifier
Notes: Standalone desktop unit (per multiple retailer descriptions), not a 500-series module, despite some retailer listing titles containing '500 Series' text inconsistently - flagged as ambiguous, desktop form factor used based on majority of sources and Fredenstein's own 'desktop' framing. DSP controls tube operating points automatically. Single-source price (My Audio Supplies): regular $2,529, sale $2,299 seen.
