Grace M801 Pre Amp

Unit serial number is A801038. In excellent condition and has always been racked in studio. Includes the external power supply and manual. Ships UPS ground in original packaging and box. Local pick up in central New Jersey also a possibility. Have two available (obviously not with the same serial number). Price is per unit, not for both of them.

The m801 from Grace Design is an eight channel microphone preamplifier designed for unmatched audio performance with massive headroom and ultra-wide bandwidth. The unit can effortlessly resolve even the lowest level ambient information, resulting in a sonic picture of absolute clarity and detail, which serves to capture the essential character of the music being recorded.

The signal path is fully balanced from start to finish, resulting in generous dynamic range, while high current output drivers enable long cable runs without signal loss. Included on each channel is a dedicated ribbon microphone switch, which shifts the preamplifier's entire gain range up 10dB while deactivating 48V phantom power and bypassing the decoupling capacitors on the selected channel.

An additional set of eight channel balanced outputs are included for sending signals to a secondary recorder, workstation or console. The m801 is equally suitable for use in the highest quality studio while also being able to capture every detail of a live performance.
