GML 8304 Series II Four-Channel Microphone Preamp
Four channel microphone preamplifier, includes 8355 external power supply
MFR# 8304
Product Description
GML Microphone Preamps are world-renowned for their life-like accuracy and wonderful transparency. Now the Series II models are available as 2 channel or 4 channel (8302 or 8304) versions. GML's continuing research and review of up-to-date componentry maintains the brand's legendary transparency. The GML 8302 and the 8304 Series II have been reconfigured with front-panel-mounted phantom power and phase reverse switches, and the +48v phantom supply has been completely redesigned resulting in lower noise. Their all-discrete, bipolar transistor circuit topologies are completely transformerless with no FETs, ICs,or electrolytic capacitors in the signal path. Even the outputs are direct-coupled with time-proven active servos that remove DC without adding any artificial color. 10dB to 65dB of gain is front panel selectable on the front panel in precise 5dB steps. A +24dBv clip indicator warns of any impending overloads. Both GML 8302 and 8304 occupy 1U rack space. Both versions ship with an external power supply (GML Model 8355) and a 5pin XLR power cable.
