The neck pick-up was sent to one amp and set for a clean, bass-heavy tone, which then ran into two Ampeg V4b 215 cabs, while the bridge pick-up was sent to the other amp which was set with an exaggerated treble boost, and extra gain in the preamp and was sent into two Thiele 215 cabs.

A very popular type of system for reproducing music from the 1970s onwards was the integrated music centre which combined phonograph, radio tuner, tape player, preamp and power amplifier in one package, often sold with its own separate, detachable or integrated speakers.

Home theater designs and layouts are a personal choice, and the minimum set of requirements for a home theater are: a television set or video projector CRT ( no new models sold in U. S .), LCD, DLP, plasma display, organic light-emitting diode ( OLED ), SXRD, Laser TV, rear-projection TV, video projector, SDTV, HDTV, or 3DTV at least 27 " inches measured diagonally, an AV receiver or preamp ( surround processor ) and amplifier combination capable of at least stereo sound but preferably 5. 1 Channel Dolby Digital and DTS audio, and something that plays or broadcasts movies in at least stereo sound such as a VHS HI-FI VCR or LaserDisc player ( no new stand-alone models of either are available ; VHS VCRs are usually bundled in combo decks with DVD players ), a DVD player and / or a Blu-ray Disc player, cable or satellite receiver, video game console, etc.

He plays a 1977 Fender Jazz Bass that was modified by Roger Sadowsky with the addition of a Bartolini preamp so he could control his sound in the studio.

" He almost definitely used a Bogner Triple Giant and a Tube Works solid-state preamp for solos, along with a VHT 2150 power amp.

In case of tube amps, 4 preamplifier tubes ( 8 stages, 2 stages per tube ) is common ( compared to 1 tube in most traditional style amps ), but amplifiers with as many as 8 preamp tubes are available.

Another variation is to combine the power amplifier into the speaker cabinet, an arrangement called a powered speaker, and use these with a separate preamp, sometimes combined into an effects pedal board or floor preamp / processor.

Updated in 1999 with American Vintage hardware, dual-coil Ceramic Noiseless pickups and a 12dB active mid-boost preamp with " no-load " tone circuit and bypass switch.

The album liner notes indicate that the nearly seven minute piece was recorded ' live ' in the studio in one take, using only a Fender Showman amplifier with a Bogen Challenger PA amplifier for a preamp and a Fender Stratocaster guitar — during which, according to a 1971 Guitar Player Magazine interview with Kath, the Strat's ( presumably broken ) neck "... was held together with a radiator hose clamp.

Yamaha DG1000 preamp with Marshall EL34 100 / 100 poweramp, and Yamaha DG130H, Yamaha DG100 combo etc.

It was designed to be used in conjunction with Farfisa's Amplifiers, and had a multi-pin cable that connected the controls of the accordion, with the controls of the amplifier, or the F / AR Reverb preamp power supply unit.

Its only weak point is that the preamp and power amp modules are installed in the chipboard cabinet with lack of electromagnetic shielding, resulting in a need to physically separate the amp head from bass pickups and speakers.

Features a switchable on-board preamp with bass / treble controls.

Available in four-and five-string versions, all Custom Classic Jazz Basses came with a pair of custom-wound dual-coil Noiseless Jazz Bass pickups, a three-band active preamp, five-bolt neck plate, 18V power supply and a Deluxe string-through-body / top-load bridge with milled nickel-plated brass saddles.

This is a variation on the traditional Jazz Bass design-differences being that it has only one master volume and tone, but additional on / off switches for pickup selection, series / parallel switching, and a two-band active preamp with bypass switch.

Contrary to popular belief the Bogner Fish, which is often cited as the preamp for the album, was first released one year after the album debuted, therefore making it impossible to be the preamp of use on this album, unless he received a pre-production model.

Subsequent versions of the bass have been produced using custom circuitry designed by a Japanese student visiting Chris Eccleshall, a custom circuit was needed as Yamaha stopped producing the BB1200 preamp.

The main equipment Hook used during the early days of New Order was an Alembic F-2B preamp / Roland rack unit / Amcron DC-300A power amp fed through two large custom built 2 x 15 Gauss loaded flightcase cabinets designed and built by Chris Hewitt of Tractor Music.

Part of the best-selling American Deluxe Series, the Zone Bass replaced the Japanese P-Bass Lyte Deluxe ( which featured a mahogany body, an active humbucking Jazz Bass pickup in the bridge position and a single 9V powered 3-band active EQ preamp ), which was gone a year earlier.

Part of the reason for the poor sales of the guitar was that the preamp actually made the sound " too clean " for most Rock and Roll guitarists, who preferred the slightly distorted sound offered by passive electronics.

Not knowing what signal was required to drive the power amps, Smith added an extra tube gain stage to the preamp, with three variable gain controls at different points in the circuit.

A smaller tube amplifier, the 17. 5wpc Stereo 35, was introduced in 1963, and was followed the next year by the SCA 35, the company's first integrated ( preamp + power amp ) tube amplifier.

By the time of the interview, however, he had changed his equipment completely, the main pieces of his gear being a rack-mounted Mesa / Boogie Dual Rectifier and the preamp of his Elite Stratocaster that was converted into a rack-mounted preamp ( this allowed him to emulate the sound of his Elite Stratocaster, regardless of what guitar he used ), which was his setup during the Dogman era, and would continue into the 1990s and early 2000s.

Before the Randall endorsement, he used a Marshall JMP-1 preamp with a Marshall power amp, which was also suggested and given to him by Carpenter.

As on the MPC4000, a turntable preamp is also included.

A " phono input " is a set of input jacks, usually RCA jacks, located on the rear panel of a preamp, mixer or amplifier, especially on early radio sets, to which a phonograph or turntable is attached.

Most inexpensive guitar amplifiers currently produced are based on semiconductor ( solid-state ) circuits, and some designs incorporate tubes in the preamp stage for their subjectively warmer overdrive sound.

At the other extreme, if a small rack case containing both preamp and power amp is placed on top of a guitar speaker cabinet, the distinction between a rack and a traditional amp head begins to blur.

On the Compact Duo dual manual organs, tone and volume were regulated by controls on the F / AR combination preamp, reverb and power supply unit.

The 5150 II, which contains an extra preamp tube for more headroom and gain on the Rhythm channel, is the old equivalent to the new 6505 +.

It is now regarded as a " desert island " preamp by many recording engineers, it has been used on a countless number of hit records over the past 30 years from Rock, Rap, Hip-hop, to Classical.

It boasts an 18-volt 4-band preamp ( except on the single-pickup model, which has a 3-band preamp ; single-pickup models with piezo bridges have a 4-band preamp ) designed by Dudley Gimpel with help from Cliff Hugo and other Music Man artists.

This instrument was more cost effective eschewing the original, higher fidelity Fly circuitry for the cheaper, simpler Nite-Fly preamp.

The preamps used the then burgeoning solid state " op-amp " integrated circuits embodying traditional Fender preamp time constants and architecture, while the power amps typically featured a Cathode Driven Tube power amp stage, much as were used in the radio broadcast industry in AM Transmitters.

Sadowsky started out modifying vintage Fender basses, which were at that time inexpensive, to improve their sound by adding more noise reduction technology and replacing the passive electronics with an active preamp, which increases the signal to noise ratio of the bass's signal.

The 2004 models were made of solid Mahogany and Walnut or Alder and Maple timbers and have a pair of Zone humbucking pickups powered by an 18V active 3-band preamp.

* Unlike other Compact series organs, the Compact Duo models require a separate power supply / solid-state preamp / real spring reverb unit ( called the Farfisa F / AR ), to which the organ connects via a multi-lead cable.

The first Kensonic models were the P-300 amp ( lifier ), C-200 preamp and T-100 tuner.

Further works of Otala and other authors found the solution for TIM distortion, including increasing slew rate, decreasing preamp frequency bandwidth, and the insertion of a lag compensation circuit in the input stage of the amplifier.

There may be one or more tone stages which affect the character of the guitar signal: before the preamp stage ( as in the case of guitar pedals ), in between the preamp and power stages ( as in the cases of effects loop or many dedicated amplifier tone circuits ), in between multiple stacked preamp stages, or in feedback loops from a post-preamp signal to an earlier pre-preamp signal ( as in the case of presence modifier circuits ).

In any case, adding a preamp stage ( RF stage ) between the antenna and the regenerative detector is often used to further lower the interference.

Piezo pickups have a high ( capacitive ) output impedance, and must be plugged into a high impedance input stage in the amplifier or a powered preamp ( a charge amplifier is best ).

A line called " AOR ", short for " Advanced Overdrive Response ", introduced an extra stage of preamp gain while still retaining a pure signal path.

The pre-amp uses 1x ECC 83 FQ, 1x ECC 83 ST, 1x ECC 83 SE valves in the preamp stage and the power stage has two 6LC GCs.
