The Daking Mic Pre II Microphone Preamp essentially combines two of Daking's celebrated stand-alone Mic Pre One units in a single rack space form factor for the surprisingly low price.
Like the Daking Mic Pre One, the Daking Mic Pre EQ, and the Daking Mic Pre IV, the Daking Mic Pre II circuitry is based on a classic console design of the 80s with some upgrades: Variable High Pass Filters on each channel, Cinemag input transformers, class A amplification, extremely high headroom (+24) and a single-sided 48V power supply.
In addition to the features mentioned above, the Daking Mic Pre II has 70dB of gain, switchable polarity, a 20 segment combo VU and peak hold LED meter, a 20dB pad with constant reflected impedance, switchable phantom power, direct 1/4inch instrument inputs on the front panel, and balanced XLR and ¼ inch outputs.
