Description
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 marriage 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.
GENERAL FEATURES: – All Metal Chassis – Milled Aluminum Knobs – Balanced XLR Gold Pin Neutrik Outputs – Switchcraft 1/4″ Input Jacks – Bipolar Electrolytic Capacitors – 1% Metal Resistors – Blue Led Power Indicator – 4 Rubber Feet – Heat Vents
KGB-II Features: – Two Discrete Inputs with Thru – Gain Select Switches for each channel – High/Low – Phase Reverse Switch for each channel – Gain Lift Switch – External Power Transformer for a very low Noise Floor.
APPLICATIONS:– Output to Line-In to FOH or Stage Monitors.– Output to Line-In on a Recording Console.– Output to Input of Digital Audio Converters.– Output to Power Amplifiers.– Both devices provide a Balanced, Line-Level +4db Output, which allows for bypass of the typical DI, Microphone Preamplifier and other input stages.
