Chandler Limited enters the (API) 500 Series race with its new LITTLE DEVIL Equalizers and Compressors.
Using all discrete circuits that combine Chandler’s best designs with the hottest designs from the past, transformer balanced everything, and American-handmade quality, the LITTLE DEVILS will take the lunchbox UP (or DOWN:-) to the next level…
Technically and sonically speaking, the Chandler LITTLE DEVILS are steeped in the sound and function of all Chandler gear – discrete amplifiers, inductors, and transformers.
And, there are no surface mount or ribbon cables in the Little Devils (used to build cell phones and computers) that are becoming popular money-saving and sound-crippling build techniques.
