The GoldMike Mark2, like its predecessor, uses a hybrid solid state and tube architecture to provide the best of both worlds.\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eA 24-bit, 192 kHz A to D converter is an optional feature\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\r\nThe rack-mountable GoldMike MK2 boasts improved tonal flexibility and adaptability, making it an ideal dual-channel front end for practically any modern production situation.\r\nThe GoldMike MK2 is the culmination of all of our expertise and knowledge from its predecessor, and it represents an enhanced, more versatile, and modernized version.\r\n\r\nWe’ve included technology that has already been shown to improve tonal outcomes in other SPL products. For example, the instrument input is based on a Class-A impedance converter introduced in the SPL GainStation.\r\n\r\nThe hybrid preamplifier idea had a vital role in the predecessor’s success. It blends transistor and tube preamplifier stages, focussing on their technological and acoustic advantages: The efficiency and low noise of a discrete transistor stage are enhanced by the musical coloration of a tube stage.\r\n\r\nWe’ve included technology that has already been shown to improve tonal outcomes in other SPL products.

It blends transistor and tube preamplifier stages, focussing on their technological and acoustic advantages: The efficiency and low noise of a discrete transistor stage are enhanced by the musical coloration of a tube stage.\r\n\r\nThe transistor stage is made up of single transistors in a Class-A configuration. The circuitry is entirely discrete, with each transistor perfectly optimized for its specialized function. There will be no ICs in this preamplifier stage since they cannot be optimized to the degree that SPL aims for. The discrete Class-A transistor stage was designed particularly for this preamplifier.\r\n\r\nThe degree of tube pre-amplification is no longer set at +6 dB like its predecessor. The GoldMike MK2 offers three alternative tube pre-amplifications: the basic +6 dB, +12 dB and +18 dB. This provides you with more creative options with tube saturation and limiting effects. Experiment to get the sounds you want.\r\n\r\nWe have also added a parameter to the popular Flair circuitry to extend the versatility of the “presence” upgrade.\r\nChannel separation is critical for stereo imaging because the GoldMike MK2 is a dual-channel preamplifier. As a result, the print-board arrangement is symmetrically duplicated from channel 1 to channel 2, with the power supply in the center. This produces an identical signal flow that supports a naturally balanced stereo picture. Furthermore, the print board has extra-large ground portions, maximizing protection against crosstalk and interference.\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAdjust the sound of your world with the GoldMike MK2\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e Discrete Class-A solid stage.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e Tube drive at three intensity levels.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e Two-channel Class-A microphone and instrument preamplifier.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e Adjustable tube preamplification circuitry.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e Enhanced presence with two switchable settings.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e The pre-output limiter step provides quicker diode-based operation and protects A\/D converters.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e The instrument input is located on the front panel, with separate microphone and line inputs on the back.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e Features include phantom power, phase reversal, pad, and high-pass filter (at 50Hz).\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e I am switching inserts.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e VU metering with three switchable display ranges.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e A 24-bit, 192 kHz A-D converter is an optional feature.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003eSPL GoldMike MK2 dual-channel preamplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sur Sargam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52663877239081,"sku":null,"price":196310.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/0750\/9801\/files\/SPL-Audio-GoldMike-MK2-Dual-Channel-Preamplifier-1.jpg?v=1770878509","url":"https:\/\/sursargam.com\/products\/spl-audio-goldmike-mk2-dual-channel-preamplifier","provider":"Sur Sargam","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
