With astounding transparency and warm, smooth presence.

The VT-series microphone preamplifiers will change the way you think of audio quality. The transparency is astounding. Vocals sound smoother, warmer, more intimate, with a compelling presence. Any microphone and any sound will benefit from the improved clarity, definition, and lack of solid-state artifacts. The VT-1 recreates the sound of classic tube preamps of the 1960s. Modern components and computer-optimized circuitry, unavailable during the vacuum tube era, elevate this design to a new level of performance.

In designing the VT-1, no compromise in sonic quality, reliability, or ruggedness were permitted. Like the best tube equipment of the 1950s and '60s, the VT-1 is built on a heavy-guage aluminum chassis, utilizing point-to-point wiring. Each vacuum tube is selected for minimum noise and microphonics, and maximum sonic clarity. The front panel switches control sealed, gold-contact precision relays for all audio switching, eliminating the possibility of dirty contacts degrading the sound and minimizing the internal audio path. Four class-A triode amplifier sections (in two tubes) in each channel comprise the entire active circuit. This surprisingly simple circuit, along with top-quality components and careful design optimization, results in the sonic superiority that the VT-1 has become known for. All over the globe, VT-1 preamps are in daily use in the world's best studios, as well as in home project studios, helping many top recording artists achieve the best possible sound.

D.W. Fearn VT-1 Single Channel Vacuum Tube Microphone Preamp Specifications:

  • Input: 150 ohms

A versatile studio tool that does it all!

The VT-15 Vacuum Tube Recording Channel combines the mic preamp from the D.W. Fearn VT-2, and the DI input functionality of the new VT-3, plus the acclaimed dynamics control of the VT-7 Compressor, and the most-often used features of the VT-4 Equalizer.

Mic Preamp
The mic preamp section has all the features of the VT-1 (the single-channel version of the VT-2), plus a built in Line Pad (the same as our LP-1), and a front-panel 1/4" jack for an instrument input from an electric or electronic guitar or keyboard.

Compressor
The compression section is identical to a single channel of the VT-7 Stereo Compressor, including a switchable high-pass filter in the sidechain to reduce low frequency compression when necessary.

Equalizer
The equalization section is a scaled-down version of the versatile VT-4 LC Equalizer. It has a single frequency for each of the LF Boost, LF Cut, HF Boost, and HF Cut. These frequencies were determined by analyzing which were the most often used settings on the VT-4. Approximate equalization frequencies: LF Boost 100Hz, shelving; LF Cut 90Hz, shelving; HF Boost 9.8kHz, with adjustable Q; HF Cut 11kHz, shelving. The controls are continuously variable, from -12dB of cut to +12dB of boost. The HF Q is also continuously variable.

Which comes first, compression or equalization?
Sometimes you need the compression before the EQ, and sometimes the EQ should come first. The VT-15 does not lock you into only one configuration; a front panel switch allows you to instantly switch from Comp/EQ to EQ/Comp.

A full-size true VU meter monitors either gain reduction or output level. The mic/line input connector is a XLR female, and the output is a XLR male, both on the back panel. The Instrument input is a quarter-inch jack on the front panel. The VT-15 is in a standard rack-mount package, 5.25" high (3RU). A rear panel switch allows the VT-15 to instantly be converted from 120 to 240VAC operation, 50/60Hz.

Add depth, dynamics, and excitement to your recordings without adding noise!

The VT-3 is a dual-channel, all-triode vacuum tube DI ("direct box") for recording electric or electronic instruments. The inputs are designed to provide the proper load impedance for all instruments that have a 1/4-inch phone jack output. Tube circuitry provides the very high impedance necessary to capture all the details of these instruments.

The outputs of the VT-3 are mic level (150 ohm source impedance at a nominal -30dBV). The VT-3 is designed to operate into a high-quality microphone preamplifier like the Fearn VT-1 and VT-2 Vacuum Tube Microphone Preamplifiers.

Operation is very simple: plug the instrument into the 1/4" front panel jack and take the output either from the front panel XLR connector, or a parallel XLR connector on the back panel. A second 1/4" jack provides an output to feed a guitar amplifier when necessary. A ground-lift switch helps eliminate ground loop buzz, and a switchable high-pass filter gently rolls off frequencies below 100Hz when required.

The two channels are entirely independent and can be used with two different instruments at the same time.

D.W. Fearn VT-3 Dual Channel Vacuum Tube DI Specifications:

  • Input: 200 mV nominal unbalanced
  • Input Load Impedance: 1 megohm minimum
  • Minimum Input Level: 5 mV nominal
  • Maximum Input Level: 2.3 volts P-P for 1% THD
  • Gain: -10 dB

  • THD + Noise: <0.3% 20 cps to 20 kc

Packed with cool and innovative features, the REBEL-20 doesn't just defy authority, it is the authority!

Sure it's small, but do not mistake it for a toy. The REBEL-20 is a truly professional amp with innovative features and a sound that is anything but small. Inside you'll find three GrooveTubes 12AX7 preamp tubes, a pair of GrooveTubes EL84 power tubes and a pair of GrooveTubes 6V6 power tubes. Not only do you get the signature Egnater TIGHT and BRIGHT voicing switches, you also have wide range gain control that lets you go from bluesy clean up to roaring high-gain lead all using a single gain knob.

The WATTS control lets you dial the power from 20 watts to 1 watt for bandstand to bedroom volume. The amp also includes a professional quality effects loop that doesn't "suck tone". But the coolest feature of the REBEL-20 is the TUBE MIX control — an Egnater first! With the TUBE MIX knob turned counterclockwise you get the classic American sound of the 6V6 power tubes. Set the knob full clockwise to experience the more aggressive, British sound of the EL84 tubes. For the first time, you can blend the two types of tubes in any proportion you wish to create a truly signature sound.

Egnater Products Rebel 20 20W Tube Guitar Amp Head Features:

  • 20-Watt All-Tube Head

Egnater Tourmaster Series 4100 100W All Tube Guitar Amp Head

Like four separate amps in one head.

Each of the Tourmaster 4100 amp head's channels has an identical set of controls, but that is where the similarities end.

Clean/Vintage 1 is the cleanest of the four. Within this channel lives a range of Classic tones ranging from pristine sparkle with the voicing switch set to MODERN to a punchy, aggressive drive (think clean JTM) in the CLASSIC mode. Pressing the button to activate the CONTOUR control opens an entire new range of beautiful clean, almost acoustic, tones not often found in a tube amplifier.

Clean/Vintage 2 has a very similar voicing to the Clean/Vintage 1 channel. This channel has more gain, so it can be pushed into mild overdrive. Sweet blues and classic rock tones are easily coaxed out of this channel. The contour knob adds another level of unique flavors.

Overdrive 1: From AC/DC crunch to modern rock, this channel covers a lot of bases all by itself. Dial down the gain and the feel is pure classic rock. Push the gain and enter into more modern, saturated territory. Scoop the mids with the CONTOUR control for monstrous metal or set it for classic British rhythm.

Overdrive 2: The Tourmaster's most intense channel, you'll find ferocious gain with a wide range of tones to suit the 80s shredder as well as the heaviest modern metal player. Scoop the mids with the powerful CONTOUR control for massive crunch or push the midrange for a solo tone that cuts through with serious authority.

Power Grid: This is a really cool feature you will only find on the Egnater Tourmaster amps. Using a group of 5 slide switches on the rear panel, you can set the power output for each channel individually. There is a 3-position slide switch corresponding to each of the four channels and a single FULL POWER/ HALF POWER slide switch. In FULL POWER mode, you can choose between 100w, 50w or 25w per channel. In the HALF POWER mode, you can between choose 50w, 25w or 10w per channel.

With the Tourmaster 4100 amp head, you not only have a wide array of tones available from the preamp channels, but with the Power Grid you can introduce any amount of power tube distortion you wish to each channel: all preset, all automatic.
