The DRS-8 developed by Phoenix Audio UK is an 8 channel, Neve influenced, preamp designed with Class A discrete technology with both the professional and home studio artists in mind. Modeled after Phoenix's other famous preamps, the DRS-1 and DRS-2, the DRS8 uses a transformer less, Class A, discrete mic input which gives you a "valve-like" sound. The Phoenix Audio DRS-8 is extremely versatile complimenting an array of instruments including acoustic guitars, electric guitar, percussion instruments, vocals, horns, and keyboards. The cost-per-channel is also unbeatable for a preamp of this quality. Please contact our experts, here at SoundPure, with any questions 919.682.5552 or 888-528-9703.
