It is the only tube module in the Wunder Audio lineup, introducing a distinct class of sound alongside the discrete PEQ2 and PEQ4: dense, saturated midrange, a natural compression behavior at higher signal levels, and smooth high-frequency response characteristic of Western Electric tube topology. It installs in the same console slot as a PEQ2 or PEQ1 with no hardware modification required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWestern Electric Tube Architecture Restored\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe PEQTube is Wunder Audio's direct reintroduction of the Western Electric tube mic preamp circuit — the same architecture that powered Capitol Records' Studio during the classic Frank Sinatra sessions and Motown's Hitsville U.S.A. recording studio. The signal path is all-discrete through-hole topology with large Mu-Metal input and output transformers. Those transformers are Wunder Audio's own NICO Western Electric 618B-style (Ni\/Fe\/Co) — identical to those specified in the PEQ2 and PEQ4 modules, ensuring tonal consistency with the rest of the Wunder Audio signal chain. The two-band EQ offers switchable shelving with a global bypass pulling the entire EQ stage out of circuit, plus per-band bypass for each band independently. Discrete active high-pass filter, phase switch, and LED metering with separate signal and clip indicators complete the control layout. All pushbuttons use Grayhill switches with light-pipe illumination — the same specification as the Wunderbar console itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eInstallation Flexibility: Console and Rack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIn console format, the PEQTube installs into any Wunderbar slot without modification — rear connections and supply voltages are identical to the Neve 1073 standard, making it fully interchangeable within any 80-series compatible frame. It can sit in any channel position alongside PEQ2 and PEQ1 modules in the same console, giving the engineer per-channel choice between tube and discrete character within a single desk. For standalone rack use, the same electronics are available in 19\" 1U format as the PEQTubeR, powered by a Blue Box or Black Box PSU via the standard 5' DC Main Cable. Both versions share identical circuitry and transformer specifications — the format is the only variable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTube mic preamp with 2-band EQ in console module format\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWestern Electric all-discrete through-hole topology with large Mu-Metal transformers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNICO Western Electric 618B-style (Ni\/Fe\/Co) input and output transformers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e2-band switchable shelving EQ — global bypass and individual per-band bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDiscrete active high-pass filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePhase switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLED metering: green (signal) \/ red (clip)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLight-pipe pushbuttons and Grayhill switches with high gold-contact surface area\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Neve 80-series and Wunderbar console slots (same rear connections and voltages as 1073)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eInstalls alongside PEQ2 and PEQ1 modules in the same console without modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAlso available as PEQTubeR in 19\" 1U rack format\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eType: tube mic preamp module with EQ, console \/ rack format\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSignal path: tube, all-discrete through-hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTransformers: NICO Western Electric 618B-style (Ni\/Fe\/Co), large Mu-Metal enclosures\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eEQ: 2-band switchable shelving, global bypass, per-band bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHigh-pass filter: discrete active\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePhase switch: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMetering: LED green (signal) \/ red (clip)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSwitches: Grayhill custom, light-pipe pushbuttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eConsole compatibility: Neve 80-series \/ Wunderbar (same connectors and voltages as 1073)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRack version: PEQTubeR 19\" 1U (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wunder Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53670069764433,"sku":"41729","price":2341.52,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/WunderAudioPEQTubemoduleforconsoleorrack.jpg?v=1778416635","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/de-fr\/products\/wunder-audio-peqtube-module","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
