KGB-II

Dual Channel Instrument Preamp

Note – this product is only available with a 110 volt external power supply, NOT 230 volts.

This is a single-ended, high input impedance, discrete audio pre-amp designed for high impedance, unbalanced outputs such as: guitar, bass guitar, and electronic keyboards.  Just as a low impedance, balanced pre-amp is needed  for use with microphones, a pre-amplifier design for unbalanced high impedance instruments is also required.  The KGB Series contains high voltage, discrete op-amps with superb quality balanced output transformers made by Cinemag, Inc.  The KGB-II is a two-channel, solid state unit that allows use of both channels for stereo recordings or live performances.  This makes a good A-Designs KGB II front panelmarriage with stereo out instruments like keyboards or stereo guitar pickups.  And for guitarists and  bass players, there is  the added freedom of swapping between two instruments in a live performance, simply by picking up the other bass/guitar and start playing with no delay between songs.
