Explosive level for passive mics The DM2 TNT is an active in-line preamp ideal for podcasting, recording, and live sound. It features an ultra-high impedance input that matches any passive microphone (dynamic or ribbon), eight load settings, and provides a moderate +15 dB or explosive +30 dB gain boost. The DM2's sophisticated Class A design and carefully selected high-quality FETs deliver exceptionally low output impedance, nearly half the noise of other amplifiers on the market, while its eight impedance settings and buffer amplifier ensure consistent gain regardless of the connected load. The DM2 boosts the signal from passive microphones without adding noise or coloration, while reducing the possibility of interference. The slim yet heavy-duty metal chassis, robust construction and high manufacturing standards ensure reliability even on demanding stages. Clean and consistent gain settings from a moderate +15 dB to an explosive +30 dB. Designed for neutral and balanced sound quality. Eight load settings from 50 Ω to 10 MΩ to match any microphone. Two gain level settings provide flexibility for a variety of sources. Thorough signal boost regardless of load impedance or cable length Sophisticated Class A electronics: Sophisticated Class A electronics and high-grade FETs deliver ultra-low noise. Transformerless design for faithful reproduction of the source's original sound quality. Lowest noise in its class. Dedicated output buffer amplifier: Provides +15 dB / +30 dB output power independent of load impedance and cable length. Extremely low output impedance. Reduces susceptibility to RF interference, buzz, and hum, even over long cable runs. Slim, sturdy metal housing with premium finish. Effectively rejects all electrical interference and noise. High-quality finish and gold-plated XLR connectors ensure reliable signal connection. Slim design makes it easy to set up in the studio or on stage. Specified frequency range: 10 Hz - 120,000 Hz (-0.3 dB) Gain: 15 dB / 30 dB Maximum output level (0.5% THD): 9.5 dBV (3.0 V) Output noise level: 1 μV @ 15 dB / 6.6 μV @ 30 dB Operating power: 48V phantom power (IEC 61938 compliant)* Impedance: 135 ohms Recommended load impedance: 1kΩ or more Current consumption: 3.1 mA Connector: XLR 3-pin Dimensions: 19 mm (diameter) x 95.5 mm (length) Body weight: 80 g *Specifications are subject to change without notice. ※please note The DM2 is designed for use with passive microphones (dynamic and ribbon). It cannot be used with microphones that require phantom power (condenser and active ribbon). To operate the DM2, a separate preamp/mixer/audio interface that can supply 48V phantom power is required.
