26CA 1/2" CCP Standard Microphone Preamplifier with BNC Connector

The GRAS 1/2" Preamplifier GRAS 26CA is a general purpose preamplifier optimized for use with prepolarized condenser microphones. It is a small,robust unit and uses a GRAS CCP power supply (ICP ®), e.g. GRAS 12AL. It has a very low inherent noise level, and a large dynamic range and a frequency response from below 2 Hz to above 200 kHz.

The GRAS 26CA 1/2'' CCP Standard Preamplifier is a small, robust unit and uses a CCP power supply (ICP ®), e.g. GRAS 12AL. It has a very low inherent noise level, a large dynamic range and a frequency response from below 2 Hz to above 200 kHz.

Its small ceramic thick-film substrate has a very high input impedance, and is shielded by a guard ring to minimise the influence of stray capacitance and microphonic interference.
