AlexB Modern Tube Console GE SK

The inclusion of valves in this console is not just a token addition. They form an essential part of the signal path at several key points within the console: every channel and mic preamp incorporates an ECC83/12AX7A valve stage, as do the Group and Stereo master MixBus amplifiers. The original smooth and musical tube sound has been improved for better performance in headroom and dynamics by cleaning audio path and replacing the stock 12AX7 tubes with 1960 NOS Telefunken, 1980 NOS Siemens and 1970 NOS Tesla, all hand selected, balanced and matched. Some electrolytic capacitors have been replaced with Panasonic FR, Nichicon MUSE and BC while other caps have been replaced with Wima. The power supply has been improved and the sound now has more air, punch and detail with great warmth, rich harmonic content and natural in-your-face tube saturation!
