The Hazelrigg Industries DVA is a hybrid microphone preamplifier based on the Hazelrigg Industries VLC and D.W. Fearn VT-2 preamp. Utilizing a single 6072a vacuum tube, the input circuitry matches the VLC/VT-2 input stage exactly and features transformers in both the input and output stages.
Make-up gain is provided by a low-THD/high output solid state signal path (as opposed to the vacuum tube circuits in the VLC/VT-2) due to the module size and power supply limitations inherent in the 500 series format. Total gain available is approximately 60 dB.
Many condensers have a high output and require an input pad to avoid overloading the input transformer. If needed, use the pad on the microphone if available. If you're looking for saturation, engage the -20 db pad and sending the DVA an attenuated signal, then adjust gain for tone and output.
This is a very big sound in a tidy little package. I have never recorded bass and vocals that sounded this good, and I’ve used some nice preamps: Manley, RND, Great River, etc. Highly, highly recommended.
