The Chandler Limited TG2 Pre Amp/DI is a recreation of the rare EMI TG12428 pre amp used in EMI/Abbey Road recording and mastering consoles in the late 60s and early 70s.

The sound was used on many famous recordings done at Abbey Road including The Beatles "Abbey Road" and Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon."

This microphone pre-amplifier features the same discrete transformer balanced amplifiers as the TG series limiter and offers a creamy, smooth tone with a surprisingly open, clear top end. The sound, as explained by many users, has "warmth" and punch, but with a "beautiful" expanded top end. In fact, the unit does have a small rise in its top-end frequency response and some warmth inducing distortion, which contribute to its sound.

Options: Stepped Output (Stereo)

**Please note: Not all of the early Abbey Road TG2 Pre Amp/DI units have the "impedance" as a standard feature of the unit. If buying a used unit, please inquire as to whether the unit is equipped with the impedance before purchasing.**

All TG units require and function on the PSU-1, Chandler Limited power supply. The PSU-1 has an internal switch for setting voltage to 120V or 220V (115V/230V). For more information please contact Chandler Limited directly.

Product Overview
The Chandler Limited TG2 recreates the circuit and sound of the preamps in classic EMI recording consoles from the '60s and '70s, as used in the famed Abbey Road Studios. The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and a wealth of other legendary bands made their flagship albums on these consoles, and the fat, harmonic tones owe much to the sound of the TG consoles. The Chandler Limited TG2 Special Edition Abbey Road Preamp / DI features the same discrete, transformer-coupled amplifiers to bring that tone to the modern studio in spades.

Note that the TG2 requires an outboard +24VDC power supply. Shop Chandler PSU-1 Power Supplies here or compare prices on units which include the PSU.
