M1 Distribution has announced the release of the Inward Connections MAGNUM 500 Series Pre-Amp, available through select dealers worldwide and exclusively in the United States through Vintage King Audio.
The MAGNUM replaces Inward Connections’ MPD-500 mic pre-amp, which has been discontinued.
Steve Firlotte of Inward Connections began to experiment with The MAGNUM’s design when Ryan McGuire, M1 Distribution’s Director of Sales and Business Development, suggested that he build upon the foundation of the MPD-500 for a newer, multi-faceted 500 series unit.
“Steve and I initially spoke about adding some more vibe and warmth to the MPD-500 and he blew me away with this new version,” says McGuire.
“The MAGNUM uses the new VF-600 discrete amp block instead of the standard SPA-690 and compared to the MPD-500 has a much warmer sounding response. “
“It’s become my go-to recommendation when a client asks for a versatile 500 series preamp with something different to offer.”
Features include three high-pass filter settings (70 Hz, 100 Hz and 200 Hz), separate input and output gain for tonal variation, +48VDC phantom power switch, phase reverse switch and Hi-Z line input 1/4” phone jack for guitars, keyboards and low level instruments.
The MAGNUM fits standard 500 series slot configurations, mechanically and electronically.
The Inward Connections MAGNUM is available immediately.
