Golden Age Project PRE-73 DLX MKII

Golden Age Project PRE-73 DLX MKII – one-channel vintage-style microphone, line, and instrument preamplifier with discrete components for warm, punchy sound inspired by Neve 1073. Transformer-balanced I/O using three optimized transformers. 80dB gain for ribbons/quiet sources, switchable mic impedance (1200/300 Ohm), 48V phantom power (up to 10mA), phase reverse, insert jack, output level control, -14dB pad, two-position AIR EQ boost (3/6dB @30kHz), HPF (50/80/160/300Hz).

Active instrument input (hi-Z/100kOhm selectable) passes through mic transformer. Reduced internal boards/connectors, beefed-up PSU for reliability. Compact half-rack design suits project studios.
