1.0 About Daking Audio
Congratulations! You’ve purchased a Mic Pre II, a very high-end piece of gear!
The Mic Pre II uses discrete transistor Class A circuits, Jensen microphone
transformers, THAT Corporation differential amps and printed circuit board-
mounted switches. Signal capacitors are precision polypropylene or ultra low-
leakage electrolytic types. Our boards are assembled on a mil-spec assembly
line. The chassis are stainless steel for maximum RF and hum rejection and a
long-lasting finish. Every unit is hand-finished, tested, burned in, and tested
again in a second facility.
Also, we just couldn’t stand to use plastic knobs, so we designed our own
anodized, engraved aluminum knobs that give a much more precise and quality
feel. We designed our gear to be gear you’ll own for life, not some passing
fancy you’ll leave in the dust once you figure out what the good stuff sounds
like. This IS the good stuff.
