Where pristine audio quality is paramount, the Earthworks 1022 Zero Distortion Technology (ZDT) Precision Microphone Preamplifier stands out as a top-tier, professional-grade solution for studio recording. Crafted with discrete-component Class A bipolar input circuitry, this solid-state preamplifier ensures that your recordings capture every nuance with absolute clarity.The Earthworks 1022 is engineered to maintain a completely differential signal path, from its balanced XLR input to the symmetrical XLR output, ensuring that the audio signal remains pure and unaltered. Unlike other preamplifiers, the Earthworks 1022's signal never converts to single-ended, which is a testament to its high-fidelity design.In the pursuit of uncompromised audio integrity, the Earthworks 1022 forgoes the use of transformers and electrolytic capacitors within the signal path. This design choice contributes to the elimination of potential coloration and distortion, allowing for a transparent and true-to-source sound.The meticulous attention to detail extends to the hardware as well, with all connectors and switches featuring gold-plating for optimal signal conductivity and corrosion resistance. This not only enhances the signal quality but also ensures the longevity and reliability of the device.With an astonishingly flat wideband frequency response that ranges from 1Hz to 200kHz, the Earthworks 1022 captures the full spectrum of sound with unparalleled precision. The preamplifier's impressive slew rate of 22V/¼s guarantees that even the most transient sounds are rendered with crispness and immediacy.The Earthworks 1022's dedication to audio excellence is further evidenced by its exceptionally low self-noise and its ability to maintain nonlinear distortion levels well below one part per million, even when operating at the highest signal levels just below clipping. This means that whether you're recording delicate vocals or powerful instruments, the preamplifier delivers a clean, undistorted signal.For added versatility, the Earthworks 1022 includes a separate 1/4" output with a vernier gain reduction feature, allowing for up to an additional 20dB of attenuation after the stepped gain. This provides users with fine-tuned control over the output level, making it suitable for a variety of recording scenarios.In summary, the Earthworks 1022 ZDT Precision Microphone Preamplifier is a high-quality, durable, and reliable choice for professionals seeking precision and zero distortion in their recordings. Its solid-state design and meticulous construction make it an invaluable asset in any studio setup where audio fidelity is of the utmost importance.
