INTRODUCING THE SEQUERRA 1070-A PREAMP . . .
BRINGING A NEW STANDARD TO PRO AUDIO
PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT: Sequerra Audio Labs, L.L.C. announces the introduction
of the Model 1070-A microphone preamplifier, a coalescence of engineering
experience, intelligence, and innovation. Created for the most demanding
recording applications where sonic perfection is the sole object, the
Sequerra 1070-A boasts otherworldly specifications and an incredible sound
that transcends words. Founders Richard Sequerra and Mark Conese designed
the 1070-A to operate as close as two feet from the microphone and to
drive long line-level cable runs up to 300 feet. Variable input loading
perfects the circuit between the microphone and the 1070-A for improved
fidelity and a remote preamp power supply assures the lowest possible
noise floor.
The Sequerra 1070-A possesses electrical specifications that, might to
some, read like misprints: It has a frequency response of 0Hz to 400kHz
(-3dB), internal noise of 1 nano-volt per root-Hz, harmonic distortion
measuring 0.0001% (0Hz to 40kHz with a 150-ohm input), a slew rate of
20 volts per microsecond, and phase linearity of -12 deg at 100kHz. It
can accept up to a five volts RMS at the input and can output up to +27dBu
before clipping.
An attractive and utterly distinctive black anodized aluminum tube houses
the Sequerra 1070-A, reflecting its intended use near the microphone.
Users select gain from +10dB to +70dB in 1dB steps and input loading of
150 Ohms, 1.2k Ohms, and 5k Ohms. A peak detecting output level meter
facilitates the gain adjustment at the microphone, and a 48-volt phantom
power supply switch allows the use of condenser microphones. Finally,
phase reversal, muting, and two selectable high-pass filters round out
the 1070-A's features. A separately available external power supply drives
up to four 1070-As.
"The Sequerra 1070-A microphone preamplifier is a technical and aesthetic
marvel," noted Brad Lunde, president of Transamerica, the US distributor
for Sequerra Audio Labs. "Dick Sequerra is amazing, as no detail
has escaped his scrutiny. This marks a new era of professional audio electronics
design where the highest level of performance is sought. The 1070-A removes
the last veil between mic and recorder for engineers, producers and musicians
who must push the envelope to the absolute highest levels of resolution."
