A Secret Weapon for Your Passive Ribbon and Dynamic Mics SE DM1 is a toolbox essential for all recording and front-of-house engineers. If you've shied away from using low-output mics you love the sound of because you don't have access to a high-gain preamp, well, those days are over! The sE Electronics DM1 Dynamite is an active in-line preamp that boosts the signal of your passive ribbon and dynamic mics by a robust 28dB. Inserted between a passive ribbon or dynamic microphone and a mic preamplifier, the DM1 will also reduce the possibility of interference, while providing a healthy level to your preamp — without any added noise or coloration. Get optimum performance from the mics you love with the sE Electronics DM1 Dynamite! High-performance Class A design With its state-of-the-art Class A circuit and hand-selected high-grade FETs, the DM1 boasts the lowest self-noise in its class. What's more, thanks to its dedicated output buffer amplifier, the gain boost it delivers is always a consistent 28dB regardless of the connected load. The DM1's output impendence is also the lowest in its class, allowing it to drive long cable runs while reducing susceptibility to RF interference, buzz, and hum. Note: For optimum results, it is recommended to plug the DM1 directly into the output of the microphone. If necessary, a cable may be used between the microphone and the DM1 — but the shorter the cable, the better the overall performance. sE Electronics DM1 Dynamite Features: Requires passive microphone (ribbon/dynamic) and 48V phantom power Not for use with phantom-powered microphones (condenser microphones, active ribbon mics) Provides 28dB of clean, consistent gain Designed for neutral, balanced sound quality The perfect way to boost the signal of a passive microphone Gain stays consistent regardless of connected load Provides significantly improved level to your mic preamp for proper gain staging State-of-the-art Class A electronics and high-grade FETs provide supremely class-leading low noise Transformerless design for pristine sound quality Dedicated output buffer amplifier provides 28dB output, independent of load impedance or cable length Extremely low output impedance drives long cable runs and reduces susceptibility to RF interference, buzz, and hum Gold-plated XLR connector for loss-free and reliable signal connection Slim, roadworthy all-metal housing with premium finish provides efficient rejection of electrical interference and noise High-quality finish ensures a great look for many years Slim design allows for easy deployment onstage or in the studio Tech Specs Type:Inline Mic Preamp Channels:1 Inputs:1 x XLR Outputs:1 x XLR Power Supply:48V phantom power Height:3.76" Width:0.75" Weight:0.17 lbs.
