{"product_id":"aea-rpq500-demo-deal","title":"AEA RPQ500 - Classic Look (Demo Deal)","description":"Originally designed to deliver the truest and most natural gain for   impedance and noise sensitive ribbon microphones, the full-rack AEA RPQ   preamp has proven itself to be the perfect match for any microphone,   ribbon or not. The \u003cb\u003eAEA RPQ500\u003c\/b\u003e module is based on this successful   design and provides the same ultra-clean, high-gain signal path that  has  earned AEA preamps their great reputation, in a 500 series package.  The  RPQ500 has been enhanced with additional features, turning it into  a  workhorse tool for your API 500 compatible rack.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The RPQ500  delivers the bandwidth and quietness needed for high  resolution  recording. JFET circuit topology delivers all the dynamics,  subwoofer  bass, and fast transients that your microphones can record. No  Load™  input impedance above 10,000 Ω means the RPQ500 will not load  down a  mic and change its sound. Low Energy Storage™ circuit design  instantly  recovers from overloads for superior dynamic performance.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The  CurveShaper™ offers a natural option for sculpting your sound right  at  the start of the signal path. Switchable and tunable low frequency  (LF)  and high frequency (HF) contour controls allow you to tame  proximity  problems and provide HF extension and slope control. The  high-frequency  CurveShaper™ excels at adding a touch of air or presence,  and the  low-frequency control can remove boxiness and boominess in a  fast and  unobtrusive way. The bottom line is a versatile channel strip  that will  deliver an unadulterated performance in any application.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The  Line\/Mic switch bypasses the microphone gain stage and allows the EQ  to  be used for tracking with other preamps or during mixdown. Add the   output level control and the RPQ500 becomes a high-quality processing   tool that can be used for mixing and mastering when combined with   summing racks and mixers such as the Purple Audio Moiyn or the Roll   Music Folcrom.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The original RPQ with CurveShaper™ was designed  to fully capture every  nuance of ribbon microphones: vintage or modern,  passive or phantom  powered. Engineers have discovered that the RPQ  also complements their  moving coil, tube and solid-state mics. By  virtue of its sonic qualities  and versatility, the AEA RPQ500 is the  tool of choice for all  microphones whenever a true and pristine signal  path is needed. It will  allow the best performance of all your  microphones with a cleaner, more  open, and more responsive sound than  you’ve ever heard.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46834437521545,"sku":"22019","price":519.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/8706\/5737\/files\/aea_rpq_500_1.jpg?v=1780350954","url":"https:\/\/vintage-king-staging.myshopify.com\/products\/aea-rpq500-demo-deal","provider":"Vintage King Staging","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
