DW FearnVT-2 Dual-Channel Tube Microphone Preamplifier

DW Fearn VT-2

DW Fearn is synonymous with vacuum tube audio equipment and the VT-2 microphone preamp is a stereo or dual-mono tubed powerhouse that will make any session flow smoothly. Using the tried-and-true method of hand building on a heavy-gauge aluminium chassis, each preamp is made with careful attention to detail. Every tube is selected to have the minimum amount of noise and microphonics giving you the cleanest sound possible. All audio switching uses gold-contact precision eliminating the possibility of a dirty contact degrading sound quality. The simple audio path is made exquisite by using only the best components, letting your signal shine while adding an analog quality that only vacuum tubes can give you.

Each channel features four class-A triode amps in two tubes, and offers an independent phantom power switch, VU switch and controls. Adjust the input from 0dB to -20dB to Lo-Z to Line level and switch the phase for stereo signals that have phase issues. Attenuation for each channel lets you adjust the level to your liking. Truly a buy-it-for-life product, the VT-2 from DW Fearn delivers musical preamplification for all mics, sounds sources, and genres.
