Black Lion Audio B173 Quad 4-Channel Microphone Preamp 2020 - Black

Four channels of Black Lion Audio's take on the classic 1073 mic pre. The unit is in great working condition. 70dB of gain per channel, great for dynamic and ribbon mics. There is a bit of rack rash on the top of the unit, as shown in the photos. Selling beacuse I am downsizing my recording setup. Please reach out with any questions. Additional info from Black Lion Audio: "The B173 Quad mic preamp packs four channels of massive punch, delivering the muscular lows, assertive mids, and glossy highs characteristic of a vintage ‘73 preamp. It’s the most cost-effective 1073-style British-sound preamp around, bringing you classic British tone to both microphones and DI-captured instruments. You won’t find four channels that sound this good for less. B173 Quad leverages Cinemag transformers on both the input and output stages. As a result, it delivers a whopping 70 dB of gain with a low noise floor for clean tones with minimal distortion. You get plenty of low-noise headroom ideal for using low-output ribbon mics on quiet sources. B173 Quad imparts a bold sonic assertiveness that beefs up any signal that passes through it. The front-mounted DI (Hi-Z) inputs adds a harmonically rich tone to guitars, keyboards, and synthesizers. The stepped input gain and variable output attenuation allow for perfect control over transformer saturation. A dedicated output level control per-channel allows you to drive your input signal into saturation without clipping the input of your audio interface or mixer."
