Heritage Audio TT73 Tabletop Mic Amplifier

The Heritage Audio TT- 73 is a desktop microphone preamp and DI inspired by the legendary 1073designed as a portable solution for stage use or location recordings.

The Heritage Audio TT-73 delivers the iconic 1073 sound vibrant, vintage and clean. Thanks to the separate input and output level controls, the TT-73 lets you drive and saturate the input producing a rich and colourful sound akin to vintage consoles.

Carnhill input and output transformers are used to add the colour and sheen to your mic, line or DI instruments. The DI input comes before the input transformer which adds some punch and sheen to any bass sound. A DI Thru jack allows you to combine the sound of the preamp with the sound instrument amplifiers ensuring great tone and flexibility.

Heritage Audio TT-73 Overview:

• 80dB Class A Microphone preamplifier, HI-LO selectable minimum input impedance, balanced and floating. High gain positions show a higher impedance, ideal for old ribbon mics.
