Product Description

The Klark Teknik DN500 Plus series utilises a ‘THAT’s’ chip which features lower distortion, improved dynamic range and faster slew rate.

The DN500 Plus is our dual compressor / limiter / expander which is characterised by its extremely quiet operation, typically >2dB quieter than any comparable product. This alone has made it a broadcast-industry standard for many years. The two channels are linkable for true stereo operation, and both the compressor and expander sections are fitted with their own sidechain inputs.

Features:

  • Two channels of full function compression, expansion, limiting and peak clipping in one unit of rack space
  • Variable knee control for compression styles from hard to easy
  • Auto attack/release mode for inaudible compression and easy set-up
  • Manual attack/release mode for creating compression effects
  • Advanced VCA design for extremely low noise and distortion
  • Flexible expander section features variable ratio for gentle expansion or hard gating
  • Separate side chain inputs are provided for compressor and expander sections
  • A peak limiter with variable threshold and programme related release provides additional protection
  • Peak clipper eliminates transient overload and tracks limiter threshold for total protection
  • Additional features include stereo link function, gain reduction meters for both compressor/expander sections and output level meter

I would like to thank VK for the wonderful sales assistance, service and prices. This was my first purchase with you and it won't be my last. I only wish I'd discovered you years ago!

I had two Grammy wins this year - Ray LaMontagne & Carolina Chocolate Drops. Both made with help from Vintage King!

In almost 20 years in Pro audio buying, never did I receive a unit so well packed and exactly as described. Works flawlessly. The whole process has been so smooth. I will never hesitate to do business with you guys in the future and will recommend you to everyone I know.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.

The speed of delivery exceeded my expectations! I was VERY pleased that my shipment arrived in time for a scheduled vocal tracking session. The packing insured that my order arrived safely. And the sales staff responded quickly to questions regarding the product.

Thank you so much! Vintage King has been so fair and easy to work with. I can't thank you enough. It feels good to trust such a hefty purchase to folks who are so helpful and knowledgeable. Vintage King is a sound designers dream store.

You guys have excellent customer service and I am excited about the next upgrade I complete on my fifth recording facility. I've been in the studio business for forty plus years. The salesman I worked with at Vintage King was the best of the best. You all rock!

I would recommend Vintage King to any one looking for top-class gear, unbeatable customer service and the best prices on the map!

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.
Michael D.
From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
Thomas W.
I am a new customer of yours. You guys provided me the absolute best deals in ordering all the equipment to power my brand new recording studio. Your customer service is amazing and i will always deal with you from here on out.
Rob M.
Thanks for your great service and getting this out today. You guys really are the Kings!
