Radial Twin-Servo Microphone Preamplifier

500 Series Microphone Preamp

The Twin-Servo is a high performance microphone preamp that leverages two discrete 990 op-amps for incredibly clean and transparent operation.

Legendary Performance

The Twin-Servo utilizes the now-famous JE-990 circuit originally developed by industry icon Deane Jensen in 1988, providing an update in the 500 series format. Its superior performance is derived from two 100% discrete 990 op-amps cascaded in tandem to deliver 60dB of gain with less than 1/10th the distortion and twice the bandwidth of a single stage design. This also reduces noise at mid and low levels, a critical advantage for those that record with a wide dynamic range. In order to minimize phase distortion, all capacitors have been removed from the audio signal path and replaced by two DC servo feedback circuits. Oversized Jensen transformers are placed at both the input and output of the  — producing a frequency response that extends from 0.5Hz to 150kHz. The result is a remarkably detailed and accurate microphone preamp suitable for any critical recording application.

Features:

• Exceptionally wide frequency response from 0.5Hz to 150kHz
• Twin-Servo topology eliminates capacitors in the signal path
• Virtually zero phase shift or bandwidth limitation
• Oversized Jensen transformers for maximum headroom
