The AEA RPQ3 ribbon preamp and equalizer feature two high-output, high-impedance, low-noise gain channels with rich, natural sound that brings out the full potential of your microphones. Specifically designed for ribbon microphones, the RPQ3 excels at extracting the warmth and lush sound that ribbons are particularly known for.
The RPQ3 is a powerhouse that delivers unrivaled high gain with low noise. With 85 dB of JFET output, the RPQ3 gives you enough juice to record soft sources without ever having to deal with noise. The RPQ3 is the tool of choice for all microphones whenever a true, impeccable signal path is desired. Our 3rd generation circuit is the cleanest, most musical design we've ever made.
With the RPQ3, you'll never again consider a source too quiet to record with a ribbon mic. Passive ribbons with low output levels necessarily preamps providing a high output level. If the preamp you are using does not have enough clean gain, the mic signal may seem too weak or too noisy, which may be apparent when recording quiet acoustic guitars or strings, especially from a distance or with long cables. The RPQ3 eliminates this worry.
