The Golden Age Project PREQ-73 PREMIER is a single-channel microphone preamplifier and equalizer designed to deliver the character of a vintage 1073-style preamp/EQ, for vocalists, musicians, and recording engineers in home, project, and commercial studios. Loaded with Carnhill transformers, polystyrene and tantalum capacitors, and soldered connections, it offers musical tone and up to 80 dB of gain. Tonal customization is easy thanks to an array of front-panel controls.

Route a mic-, line-, or instrument-level signal via the XLR-1/4" TRS combo jack or 1/4" TS Hi-Z input. Tailor the sonic traits to your preference using the inductor-based midrange EQ, high- and low-frequency shelving bands, and switchable input impedance. You can achieve saturation by lowering the output level control while increasing the input gain and checking the 4-segment LED output level meter, which indicates levels at -10 dBu, +4 dBu, +14 dBu, and clipping. Balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS output jacks are available on the rear panel.

Phantom power and polarity are switchable via dedicated controls. The PREQ-73 PREMIER is powered by the included 24V power adapter.

Vintage 1073-style electronics with no integrated circuits in the signal path
Maximum gain in mic mode is 80 dB, enough to handle passive ribbon mics with quiet sound sources
Stepped input gain switch allows 20 to 80 dB of gain in mic mode or -10 to +20 dB in line mode
Dedicated switch for engaging/disengaging the 3-band EQ section
Low-frequency shelving EQ with ±15 dB of gain at 55 Hz or 220 Hz
Inductor-based midrange EQ with ±15 dB of gain at 350 Hz (switchable to 700 Hz via internal jumper), 1.6 kHz, or 3.2 kHz
High-frequency shelving EQ with ±20 dB of gain at 10 kHz or 16 kHz
Output level control allows tonal saturation by overdriving the output stage and transformer without producing damaging output levels
Switchable mic input impedance allows impedance matching or tone alteration for most mics
Selectable 600-Ohm output termination
Rear-panel XLR-1/4" TRS combo input for a mic- or line-level source
Front-panel 1/4" TS Hi-Z input for direct connection of a sound module, electric guitar or bass, or keyboard
Classic-style knobs and buttons
All connections except gain-switch connections are soldered for signal purity and long-term stability
UK–made Carnhill input and line output transformers
Polystyrene capacitors in the amplifier circuits
Tantalum capacitors in the signal path
Sturdy toggle switches with gold-plated contacts
External power supply to avoid interaction with the audio circuits and transformers
Rack-mountable via optional UNITE PREMIER rack kit

He loves them! Eats the entire strip!
Pattern Name: Strip, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Our puppy is the pickiest eater ever ! But he loves these chewes , Kingsley is a tiny Morky that will turn up his nose at just about everything . But one day I saw the chicken chews on Amazon, and thought let’s try . To our surprise , HE LOVES them , and actually looks for them in his treat Jar. They are easy for his little teeth to chew on , and he can carry them to his hiding place, for when he wants a good chew.. the great thing about them is that there is no longer any uneaten bits of raw hide chews all over the floor to step on . He eats the entire chicken strip, and I no longer have to worry about him chocking on tough leather chew strips that smell, and get slimy

Chihuahua puppy loves these!
Pattern Name: Strip, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My little 13-week-old, 2.4-lb Chihuahua pup loves these chews. They are the perfect size for her tiny mouth. I hold them for her, and when enough gets chewed that it could break off and possibly cause a choking hazard, I cut that soft part off with the scissors. -I would never give them to her unsupervised. -Will purchase again.

I take 3 pills , sleep like a baby
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
Melatonin works well for me as a sleep aid. I take 3 pills, and I usually fall asleep within about 30 minutes. It helps me relax and fall asleep faster, especially on nights when my mind is active or I have trouble winding down. The effect feels gentle, not harsh. It is helpful for occasional use, but I don’t rely on it every night.
