The new, proprietary SPL RackPack modular system allows for free configuration of an analog rack fully loaded with all SPL specialties. Whether eight-channel preamp, effects rack or individual channel strips, the price of SPL‘s innovative analog technology has never been that favourable per channel.

From June 2007 the first available modules will be the two new preamps. As excellent alternatives to SPL's tube-based preamp designs, they cover two categories: The Prefrence Mic-Pre is a straightforward, transformerless IC preamp, while the Premium Mic-Pre offers a triple stage solid state design with an Lundahl input transformer and discrete transistor circuitry.

Further modules pictured below will follow later in 2007, tube modules are scheduled for 2008. Images used here are drawings of the prototype versions. Exact prices and specifications will be published in April/May 2007. Conceptual changes can not be excluded until the serial versions are fixed.
