Heritage Audio DTT73
Heritage Audio DTT73 is a two-channel Class-A microphone preamplifier and DI, inspired by the Neve 1073, featuring up to 80dB gain, 20dB pad, with 2 x XLR (mic), 2 x XLR (line), 2 x 1/4" (DI input) analog inputs, 2 x XLR (main output), 2 x 1/4" (thru) analog outputs.
The portable, desktop DTT-73 microphone preamplifier is a dual mic preamp module with 80 dB of gain and 10 dB of line preamp in a wood and steel chassis, modeled after the vintage 1073 module designed by Rupert Neve. It's suitable for working with various types of microphones, including vintage ribbon mics. The front panel features input and output gain knobs, phantom power +24/48V switch, D.I., LOZ, Phase, High-Pass filter, Line Attenuation, PAD switches. When equipment is connected to the 1.4” DI port, the device automatically switches the module from MIC to DI mode.
The preamplifier delivers a classic Neve sound, equipped with a convenient carry handle. It's ideal for creating high-quality audio on stage, in the recording studio, as well as during outdoor performances.
