Akai M-6 tape deck chopped down and turned into a pair of tube mic preamps with phantom power and a line output
Very compact and portable, even has a lid for the case. I modified the original 60’s tolex case instead of building a new enclosure, to retain it‘s mojo. Both channels are identical.
RCA cleartop 12AU7’s, NEC 6x4’s, rolled many EF86s to select quiet ones.
Left knob is gain, right knob is a T-pad output attenuator. Input is automatically switched to Hi-Z when a 1/4” plug is inserted into the Hi-Z input. The only switch is phantom on/off, with the VU meter backlight serving as the phantom power indicator.
- 76dBu of gain
- +48V phantom power
- Buffered VU meter drive circuit allows 0.18% THD @ 1khz with the VU meter engaged
- T-Pad attenuator
- Mic in, Hi-Z in, Line Output (unbal)
Please note that the XLR jacks were upgraded to Switchcraft D3F later on
