Spl P8
The SPL P8 is an all-analog 8-channel microphone preamplifier designed to deliver exceptional audio quality thanks to a discrete architecture with no integrated circuits (ICs). Each channel is equipped with discrete components, ensuring neutral, open, and transparent sound reproduction, ideal for capturing the slightest nuances of vocal and instrumental performances.
Each preamplifier features individual controls, including:
48V phantom power
-20 dB pad (PAD)
Phase inversion
80 Hz high-pass filter (6 dB/octave)
The SPL P8 is also available with an optional analog-to-digital converter (ADC) card, providing an 8-channel ADAT output for seamless digital integration with modern audio interfaces.
Adjustable gain: +8 dB to +62 dB
Maximum input level: 13.5 dBu (33.5 dBu with PAD enabled)
