Hi there,
this is Tobias from Germany.
I am interested in building a great tube-preamp for studio-recordings of 48V-Condensator-MICs
ATM I am jusing a 'Focusrite ISA 215' for recording.
I don't like the sound of the actual preamps ...
a mixture of transistor-amplification and tube-effect :-(
I am looking for 'fat' 60ies sound or the great sound of Neve.
Of course, everybody is looking for this and the marked gives it to me ... for $2500 minimum )
I have read many good things about the G9 by Gyraf.
Are there any other good DIY-projects?
Of course, I have read several posts in this forum, but nothing really 'kicked me now'
I have experience in soldiering, but I am not a electronic technician, like many guys on this board.
I do understand the advanced basics, but at first site, I am a nerd and a musican.
Best regards,
Tobias

I am not that in tube amps for studio work, more in SS but used Jensen and most time Sowter because of the price. Jensen is really top. Have no experience with Lundahl myself, but what I’ve heard they are in the same class as Sowter.

That is the only way to figure it out for yourself. But download the INA103 data sheet. There is a microphone amp application in it you can build straight away.

Hi,
I already have downloaded and read it (as far as I can understand it).
The problem is, it looks quite easy.
I can't understand, why something with only 10 parts can sound "like a dream"
You know, what I mean?
I am currently working on a "Focusrite ISA", which is still 1400 EUR on the market (used), and I can't trust 10 parts )
