The Vintage Audio M72 is a 1272 style, dual channel, all discrete, Class A, transformer coupled preamp that is second to no reproduction. We use the finest parts and all of our years of research and modifications to develop the finest 1272 mic preamp. The design has a number of modifications to lower the noise floor to modern standards and increase the gain to 55db. The M72 is an all discrete, Transformer coupled, transistor based design that offers a Direct Input on both channels as well as Phantom, Phase, Pad and Impedance switching and loads of great tone. The M72 is a dual stage preamp that offers fantastic headroom and a ton of character making them a favorite on guitars, vocals, you name it. The two stages of amplification provide the user with 55db of gain at the output via the input control and the output trim. The M72 also offers an impedance switch at the microphone input between 300 ohms and 1.2k. The variable impedance is really nice for Higher impendence microphones but works well as a color option as well. The M72 uses Carnhill UK transformers to keep the sounds as close as is possible to the original with a wide open tone and warm whooly british texture. They impart a thick footprint a make everything sound large and focused. People just love the M72 sound on vocals!
