Hey everyone,

I've got tons of equipment

Dear Friends

Please forgive me, i'm new to this forum, sol maybe this thread discussed before.
I'm experimenting with a diy mic preamp, based on AMEK 9098 mic preamp schematic.
I'd like to know, is there a good/reasonable method to set the input variable capacitor and the two trimpots(LOW/HIGH CMRR TRIM)?
On the attached schematic the parts: VC1,VR14,VR15.

Does anybody know hove to find a wiring diagram for AMEK 9098 Dual Mic Amp ?

I would be so glad if anybody could help me

I currently own an api 3124, an Avalon 737 and universal 1176. Im looking for a transistor pre that i can also well use for recording vocals cause i think the api is to punchy. I tried a Neve 1073 and think it sounds awesome but its to pricy, so they told me the AMEK 9098 was a colorfull pre that could work.

I have to choose between the two mic preamps: RNP or AMEK 9098 DMA. Which is better, which one to buy? Has anybody used or tested these side by side (money is not the question)?
I'd really appreciate any advice. ! :)

some say the pre in the eq version sounds better, some say they're both exactly the same

? :( ?

who knows the truth?

Hi all,
Just reviving the preamp thread.
I'm curious to know what people here think of the 9098.
I know some people think it's boring. Given that one man's boring is another man's transparent, I'd like to know how it compares with the standard classical preamps.

Thanks,
John

Hi everyone,
I was wondering about the relative merits of these preamps. I know how they differ in terms of the knobs on offer, but how good are they? I'm particularly interested in the DMCL with digital converters.

I'm considering these as I've seen some good prices lately since production started to wind down.

Hi guys,

I am using Soundcraft Ghost as my main preamp for recording of acoustic instruments. I want to improve my the sound quality. I need a very high end preamp for most of my acoustic work. For this I short list AMEK 9098 Eq, Focusrite ISA 220, Langevin DVC. Please suggest me the best one for the highest quality.

thanks and regard
