The D.W. Fearn VT-2 is a powerfully versatile preamp that combines classic tube warmth with modern performance. High fidelity is the name of the game for all D.W. Fearn products, and the VT-2 delivers on that promise thanks to its compromise-free design, hand-wired circuitry, and vacuum tubes selected for maximum sonic clarity.
The VT-2 features an all-vacuum tube design inspired by classic units of the 1950s and 60s, with each tube tested for the lowest possible internal noise and microphonics. The unit also sports a hand-selected input and custom-made output transformers to elevate and enhance even the quietest signals. The front panel switches even utilize sealed gold-contact precision relays—a step that prevents dirty contacts and further preserves your sound quality for years to come.
Whether you want a subtle clean boost or a saturated punch, the VT-2’s straightforward control scheme will help you get there. Along with independent Input, Attenuation, and Phase controls for both channels, the unit also offers +48 volt phantom power and an integrated, switchable 43 dB pad for Line Level processing. The result is a simple yet versatile preamp that’s ideal for recording, mixing, and even mastering. Whether you’re recording at home or in a world-class studio, the VT-2 is made to perform at its best in any setup. Check one out today to upgrade your sound like never before.
The DW Fearn preamp is by far the best I've ever used, much less owned. There's nothing like it. The dynamic range and openess of this preamp - because of the harmonic soft clipping of the tubes is unique. The sound has a mojo but it not a specific stamp like a Neve or API. It more like it just makes any mic bigger, clearer and smoother. This preamp is like getting a whole new mic cabinet. Everything from a 57 to a 47 is different and better. A U87ai loses the harshness on the top end and becomes so much more useful. i know its expensive but you'll never record a vocal on anything else once you have it. I also happen to live in the town in Pennsylvania where the Hazelrigg Brother make every piece by hand, check every tube. I know Doug. Ive had his preamps for 10 years. Doug is a genius, and his preamp is the very best design. He spec'd the custom wound transformers. It's a unique experience. I'll never sell mine.
