Dual-channel microphone and instrument preamplifier
The GoldMikeMK2 is the result of all SPL's experience and knowledge from its successful predecessor and represents an improved, more flexible, and more modern version.
SPL have added technologies that have already proven to provide superior tonal results in other SPL products. For example, the instrument input is designed around a class A impedance converter which premiered in the SPL GainStation. A significant contribution to the success of the predecessor was the hybrid preamplifier concept. It combines transistor and tube preamplifier stages and specifically utilizes their technological and sonic advantages: The efficiency and low noise of a discrete transistor stage is enriched with musical coloration of a tube stage.
The transistor stage is composed of single transistors in a class A design. The circuitry is fully discrete, and each transistor is completely optimized for its specific task. You will not find any IC’s in this preamplifier stage because they cannot be optimized for this specific application to the degree SPL aim for. This all new discrete class A transistor stage is a genuine innovation in the entire preamplifier market at this price level.
The degree of tube pre-amplification is no longer the fixed +6 dB value of its predecessor. The GoldMikeMK2 sports the selection of three different tube pre-amplifications: +6 dB remains the standard complemented by +12 dB and +18 dB. This allows creative variety with the tube saturation and limiting effects.
We have also added an extra setting to the popular Flair circuitry to give more flexibility to the presence improvement. Because the GoldMikeMK2 is a dual channel preamplifier, its channel separation is of fundamental importance for the stereo image. Therefore the print-board layout is symmetrically mirrored around the power supply in the center from channel 1 to channel 2. This results in an identical signal flow to supporting a naturally balanced stereo image. Additionally the print-board provides extra-large ground areas maximizing the shielding against crosstalk and interference.

We will compare prices for new, direct from manufacturer items, excluding any add-ons, options, or other special features which may affect price.
The item must be new and must be the exact same make and model (ie, the same size, version, etc.).
Since our postage charges are lower than most of the shops, the comparison price must be a "delivered cost" to the consumer.
If we are unable to verify the previous condition, we will notify you that we require additional information to verify the Price Match request. Our goal is to make this policy simple and hassle-free. We are committed to responding to your requests quickly.
The price you have found must be the Internet Retailer's regular, advertised price for a current and available item. The price you found cannot be a closeout, discontinued, blemished, year-end, inventory reduction, or any other type of advertised sale price.
Price Matching requests may not be combined with any other promotional discounts, specials or other price incentives.
Prices and price sources you have found which do not meet the above criteria or in which incomplete or inaccurate information is provided to us, will not be approved for our Price Match.
