About this listing
The Grace Design m501 is a 500-Series version of the Grace Design m101 microphone preamp. It is natural, musical and detailed, allowing engineers and musicians to consistently record vibrant, amazing tracks.The Grace Design m501 500-Series Microphone Preamp offers natural, musical clarity that makes it a welcome addition to the field. This circuit is for engineers confident with the quality of the source, mic section and placement, and wish to capture it with as little coloration or distortion as possible. The Grace Design m501 module is a balanced, transformerles design, with 48V phantom, a 75Hz HPF and a 1/4” HI-Z instrument input. Also standard is Grace Design's exclusive ribbon mic mode, which raises the mic input impedance, bypasses the input decoupling capacitors and deactivates 48V phantom to protect delicate ribbon mics from damage. Large diaphragm, vintage ribbon or trusty dynamic – the Grace Design m501 brings out the very best in any microphone and takes the guesswork out of your input chain.Grace Design m501 500-Series Microphone Preamp FeaturesFast and musical transimpedance architecturePrecision audio path with 0.5% precision metal film resistorsNew 12 position gold plated rotary gain switchHigh performance output line driver amplifier and HPF amplifierNew Ribbon mic mode (also great for dynamic mics) – Relay bypass of phantom power decoupling capacitors, increased input impedance, and 48V lockoutWide 10-75dB gain rangeEnhanced RFI interference suppressionBombproof laser-etched black anodized frontpanelSealed gold contact relay for Hi-Z input switchingLed indicators for +48V, Ribbon mode, and HPFBuilt in the USAGrace Design m501 500-Series Microphone Preamp SpecificationsGain Range (5dB Steps):Mic Input: 10-65dBHi-Z Input: -10-45dBOutput Trim Control: 0 to +10dBTHD+N 1kHz, 22Hz-22kHz BW:@ 20dB Gain +20dBu Out: <0.00085%@ 40dB Gain +20dBu Out: <0.0010%@ 60dB Gain +20dBu Out: <0.0050%Intermodulation Distortion @ 40dB Gain +20dBu Out:SMPTE/DIN 4:1 7kHz/50Hz: <0.0020Noise – Reffered to Input @60dB Gain 22Hz-22kHz BW:50O Source: <-130dB150O Source: <-128dB600O Source: <-124dBCMRR @60dB Gain, 3.5Vcm:100Hz: >55dB1kHz: >75dB10kHz: >65dBPhase Deviation (HPF Off):50Hz-25kHz @40dB Gain: <10Frequency Response:Mic Input @ 40dBm Gain -3dB: 3.8Hz-288kHzMic Input @ 40dBm Gain -0.5dB: 8.35Hz-135kHzHi-Z Input @ 20dB Gain -3dB: 1.7Hz-180kHzHi-Z Input @ 20dB Gain -0.5dB: 4Hz-72kHzImpedance:Mic Input: 8.1kOMic Input, Ribbon Mode: 20kOHi-Z Input (Unbalanced): 2.5MOHi-Z Input (Balanced): 5MOBalanced Output: 300OUnbalanced Output: 150OPeak LED Meter:Green Threshold: -10dBuRed Threshold: +16dBuMaximum Output Level:100k Ohm load, 0.1% THD , 1kHz, API Lunchbox: 27dBuWeight & Dimensions:Weight: .7 lbs / 316 gDimension: H5.25 x W1.5 x D6.6 / H13.34cm x W3.81cm x D16.75cmPower Consumption: Current Required from +16V & -16V Power Supplies, 120mA MaxGrace Design m501 500-Series Microphone Preamp IncludesGrace Design m501 500-Series Microphone Preamp2 x #4-40 Hex Head Screws1 x 3/32” Hex WrenchAnti-Static Bag5 Year Warranty
