Millennia HV3D Preamp

The Millennia HV 3D is a four channel, fully matched microphone preamplifier of uncompromising sonic character, technical specification, and mechanical workmanship. The HV 3D offers multiple channels of HV 3C preamplifiers at significantly less per channel cost.With circuitry identical to Millennias acclaimed HV 3C series high voltage microphone preamplifier, the HV 3D offers high resolution gain switching 36 steps 1.5 dB per step, optional B&K DPA 130V mic input option on every channel, DC coupled input option on every channel for optimizing ribbon and other dynamic mics, a passive summing option, and remote gain control.Unlike preamps using vacuum tubes, IC function modules, and audio transformers

all of which lend their own audio coloration, Millennias HV 3 micamp architecture is precisely optimized towards capturing the subtlest detail of music and ambience. With 23 dBu native input headroom, the HV 3D requires no input pads or switch points as found on common textbook preamp designs thus avoiding yet another source of sonic degradation. Moreover, with its 32 dBu output headroom, ultra high dynamic stability and linearity is assured.HV 3D signal path from input through output is entirely balanced with a minimum amplifier topology. Uncompromising circuit design with meticulous selection and matching of critical components assures consistently transparent audio performance at all dynamic excursions and frequency extensions. Moreover, standard audio cables over 1000 feet in length have been driven from HV 3 mic preamps with no immediately detectable signal degradation.Features and SpecificationsHIGH SPEED TRANSFORMERLESS DESIGN23 dB INPUT & 32 dB OUTPUT HEADROOM No Pads RequiredENTIRELY BALANCED AUDIO PATHOPTIONAL B&K DPA 130 VOLT INPUTS ON ALL CHANNELSOPTIONAL DC COUPLED RIBBON INPUTS ON ALL CHANNELSLASER TRIMMED FET BASED OUTPUTTHDN LESS TYPICALLY THAN 5 PPM .0005MATCHED DISCRETE TRANSISTOR FRONT ENDHIGH RESOLUTION GAIN SWITCHES STANDA
