Triton Audio FetHead
A low-noise, in-line mic preamp, FetHead’s relatively high input impedance benefits ribbon and dynamic mics. Due to a much better impedance match (which lessens the load on the microphone), better overall transient response characteristics are achieved in the signal chain. FetHead’s high-quality, low-noise circuit also extends the usable range of a low-output microphone by making it more suitable for recording softer passages without introducing noise. Some ribbon microphones do not tolerate phantom power. FetHead’s circuit uses phantom power but shields it from its input and the mic’s output; as a result, it offers effective protection to the microphone.
