Valve Microphone Preamps
 
A dozen SIEMENS & HALSKE WSW hand wired, valve microphone amplifiers type 811301 with 10db stepped Potentiometer. Six units fit into one 51cm rack. Manufactured in 1962, these amplifiers were built in Austria as opposed to the greater number of Siemens/Telefunken (V series) units which were manufactured in Germany. These superior units have 68db of gain (like the Telefunken V76) as opposed to the 34db of gain in the more commonly seen V72.
There are three racks of six 811301 units. There is also one rack of six 811350B line amp units. Each rack came with one high tension and one low tension power supply per rack. However, these original power supplies will not pass modern safety standards and as such are unfit for purpose. mjQ is offering to build custom power supplies at a cost of £450 per power supply. They would be designed to power up to 4 units each.
