It is also compatible with the Heritage Audio Frame 8 and Rack 2 powered enclosures. Heritage have decided to keep the '73-style Baxandall shelving lo and high EQ bands as they sound amazing, but have implemented a choice of 3 high shelving frequencies, à la 1084.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSpecial care has been taken in sourcing the correct components ensuring the closest performance to original units as possible. Custom polystyrene and polypropylene film tone capacitors have been developed to closely match the Siemens Styroflex and Mullard Mustard types of the late 60s\/early 70s. Custom input transformers have also been co-designed with Carnhill Transformers' Oxford factory to Heritage's special requirements, ensuring correct harmonic distortion content and saturation points.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Heritage Audio 8173 is entirely handmade in Heritage's facilities in Spain, employing the same old-fashioned wiring and soldering techniques of the 70s. All its circuitry is held in five plug in cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eMicrophone input impedance: HI, 1200 Ohm minimum, LO, 300 Ohm minimum, higher gain positions gradually have greater impedances, optimum for lo gain ribbon mics, input is transformer balanced and floating\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLine input impedance: 10 kOhms bridging, transformer balanced and floating\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDI input impedance: Greater than 2 Megohms, unbalanced\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eOutput impedance: Less than 75 Ohms, transformer balanced and floating, to drive a load of 600 ohms (factory terminated)\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum output: Greater than +26 dBu into 600 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eTHD: Less than 0.025% at 1 kHz, less than 0.05% at 100 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 20 Hz (+0.3 dB) to 20 kHz (-0.2 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum gain: Slightly greater than 80 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eNoise: Less than -100 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: 110 mA per rail @±16 VDC\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heritage Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450299641959,"sku":"103895","price":2999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/heritage-audio-8173_103895_1_421b4abc-0238-46e3-af99-ea49a24ee9c7.jpg?v=1787092511","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/heritage-audio-8173","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
