EARTHWORKS SONIFEX 521 ZDT What is it?Preamp for 500 series racks.
Details: Based on the ZDT Preamp technology designed by David Blackmer, the 521 brings the standards of the ZDT Zero Distortion Preamplifiers to the convenient 500 series format, providing a pristine amplification option to the 500 series rack.
The solid state device features switchable phantom power, polarity invert, and peak amplitude clip detection. The transformerless output stage is designed to drive long cable runs without loss of quality. Transparent gain is switchable from 5dB to 60dB in 5dB steps.
And another thing: It’s the first time Earthworks has produced a 500 series preamp.
CM-AESB3, CM-AESX3, CM-MS3
What is it? Three transformer-based passive splitter products.
Details: The CM-AESB3 is a passive ‘one-to-three’ splitter designed to split a single AES3ID digital audio source to up to three destinations, using female BNC connectors. The CM-AESX3 is similarly a passive one-to-three splitter used to create multiple AES3 digital audio signals from a single source, using Neutrik XLR connectors. The CM-MS3 can split a single
microphone or line source to up to three destinations, using Neutrik XLR connectors. It uses high-quality audio transformers that are capable of accepting input levels up to +18dBu, making the splitter useful
in both microphone and line level splitting applications.
And another thing:The units are housed in aluminium and require no power to operate.

sonic quality is imperative the Nicerizer Junior has 16 inputs containing 16 Class A discrete input buffer amps, four outputs containing DSOP2 Class A discrete output amps and four custom wound transformers. Each channel has panning with
detented/stepped control and an 8dB level boost.
And another thing: The product was on show at last month’s AES Convention in New York.

Details:The MP2A boasts a switchable +48 V phantom power, selectable microphone impedance (600/1,200/2,400 ohms), phase reverse switch, low-cut filter (20Hz/40Hz/off) as well as a switchable -20dB pad. The input
gain is adjustable from +10dB to +70dB (coarse by 10dB steps, fine by 2dB steps). UK distributor Bigger Boat claims the MP2A delivers “a rich, full-bodied sound” of a quality “that places it among the very best mic preamps on the planet”.
And another thing: A high impedance setting makes the MP2A ideal for use with ribbon microphones.
