Buzz Audio has announced the release of the Series 20 QSP, a new 4-channel microphone and instrument preamplifier.
The QSP utilizes the Buzz Audio proprietary BE41 True Class A amplifiers coupled to Lundahl audio output transformers, a combination that produces a clean and open high end with a nice touch of bass warmth.
The transformerless non-reactive input means the QSP interfaces well with all microphone types and yields a multi-purpose preamp that delivers sound always complimenting the source. Up to 70 dB of low noise gain is available with a maximum output level of +26 dBu.
A HI Z – LO Z switch allows the changing of the load the microphone sees, which can produce subtle tonal changes depending on the type of microphone.
Each channel is equipped with an instrument (DI) input, 20 dB pad, high/low input impedance switch, polarity reverse, mute and phantom power functions.
The QSP is made by hand with non-surface-mount serviceable components.
The Series 20 QSP is the first of a new range of Class A analog recording tools to celebrate 20 years since the first Buzz Audio product was manufactured.
