Dual Channel Tube Microphone Preamplifier
The WA-2MPX is an authentic reproduction of the most famous tube microphone preamplifier, pioneering the birth of rock 'n' roll. During the golden age of tape recording, this vintage tube preamplifier style became the characteristic sound of the signal chain of many successful recordings, including Elvis Presley, Les Paul and Bing Crosby, and it is a sound still sought after by the greatest artists of today. Thanks to premium components, circuit design faithful to the original and tape saturation control, the WA-2MPX authentically reproduces all the analog warmth of the original to impart your sound with vintage warmth and character. The WA-2MPX is based on the 351-style tube preamplifier found on American tape machines that gave birth to rock 'n' roll and the biggest radio hits of the era. With impressive 300 V power and a tube gain of 90 dB, the WA-2MPX can reach remarkable levels, capable of pushing the tubes to saturate just like the most iconic analog instruments. Premium components and hand assembly for an authentic vintage experience. Hand-assembled with three premium tubes per channel paired with custom-wound CineMag USA transformers faithful to the original specifications, the WA-2MPX authentically reproduces the analog sound of the original. The WA-2MPX uses discrete analog components that provide compression, saturation and non-linear frequency response for authentic 15IPS reel-to-reel sound from the analog era. The 2kHz low-pass filter allows you to further focus and shape the sound, adding warmth and power to the midrange. The 80Hz high-pass filter helps remove unwanted low-end noise. Carefully inspected at Warm Audio headquarters in Austin, Texas, by engineers and musicians trained with a passion to help you sound your best.
