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.
