D.W. Fearn VT-5M Stereo Mastering EQ

Product Description

Bring legendary warmth, precision, and hand-crafted analog excellence to your professional studio. Designed for recording and tuned for mastering professionals who demand uncompromising sonic quality, the D.W. Fearn VT-5M mastering equalizer is a true stereo processor built to perform reliably for decades. The VT-5M delivers an uncompromising, hand-crafted signal path. Built without compromises, the VT-5M is designed around impedance-matched tube amplification and a dedicated passive LC topology to bring effortless musicality and signature frequency shaping to stereo mixes or individual tracks.

TRUE STEREO MASTERING EQUALIZER

The VT-5M is a true stereo device, with one set of controls that simultaneously adjust both channels. It is designed for use in the professional recording environment. It accepts all standard low-impedance (nominally 600 ohm) line-level (nominally +4 dBm) signals. The output is line-level (+4 dBm) low impedance, transformer-isolated and designed to feed bridging inputs. It is built to sound great for a long time, with top quality parts used throughout; all the transformers, inductors and many other components are custom-made for the VT-5M.

ONLY THE BEST COMPONENTS

All power supplies are solid state and fully regulated. All rotary controls use high-quality silver-contact switches for precise repeatability and matching between units. Class A 6072 dual triodes are used for all amplifier stages. The input transformer, inductors in the passive equalization circuitry, and the output transformer are custom-made for us. The VT-5M is not mass-produced. Each one is hand-made and meticulously tested and listened to before shipment to the customer. The philosophy behind the VT-5 is: use only the best components in an optimized circuit, and build it with pride and precision. The VT-5M is designed and built to perform in your studio for decades to come.
