Listen more, correct less

The Zenith 2 offers up to 123 dB of dynamic range—an impressive performance that reveals subtle textures, extended depth, and ultra-precise transients. Its professional studio-derived design ensures extremely low noise and a wide, accurate stereo image.

What you capture is detailed, faithful, and musically authentic—the best possible foundation for your creative process.

Console DNA, on your desktop

The fully discrete, 6-transistor mic preamps are inspired by legendary console circuitry—the same architecture used in Antelope's professional studio interfaces.

Ultra-transparent and faithful, they capture your source with pinpoint accuracy, ideal for post-production. With 75 dB of self-gain, they can drive any type of microphone—including demanding dynamic mics used in streaming and podcasting—without an external booster.
