The heart of this unit is Vertigo Sound 100% discrete Twin Op Amp circuit called the OPA (operational amplifier) 1976.<\/p>\n
These in-house stages are combined with Cinemags world famous CMMI-2C transformers to provide a smooth warm and defined sound from the lowest bass to the very top end of the sonic spectrum.The CMMI-2C transformer can handle very high input levels and provides a very linear phase behaviour because of low capacitance problems due to it`s low ratio of 1:2. Further the close ratio of the transformer forces the discrete OP Amp to provide most of the amplification in the VSP-2. This \u201efull throttle\u201c,\u201cpedal to the floor\u201c circuitry enables a unique, rich, full and characterful sound.<\/p>\n

\nUNIQUE FEATURES<\/p>\n
Controls and Features of the VSP-2
\nGain control: 10-position Grayhill Rotaryswitch with 6db step increments. The full range of the unit is 12-72db
\nFine Gain control: 41 click Alps 0-6db fine gain trim
\n120Hz\/off\/80hz: Switch that engages lowcut input filter 12db\/oct at 80hz or 120 HZ.
\nSignal & Clip LED: This LED either indicates Green for a reasonable signal level presence at the output or red for close to Overload. There is no inbetween orange state to indicate clipping clearly.
\nLED green: – 6dBu to 19dBu at the output of the
\nVSP-2 >>>> reasonable output level
\nLED red: +19dBu at the output of the VSP-2 >>>> close to clip level
\nNote: The maximum output of the VSP-2 is +24dbU, the red clipping led indicates the maximum capable input level of most common converters and analog gear.
\nINSTRUMENT IN: This is an unbalanced input for guitar, bass, samples, etc. This unbalanced input goes directly to the TWIN OPA input without using any circuitry inbetween. (Real DI Input) Simply throw the toggle switch and you\u2018re off. The output is muted when switching to avoid loud clicks in your monitors.
\n48V : 48V switches ramped phantom power.
\n-20dB: The pad does not effect the input imedance of the VSP-2! The Pad circuitry is switched out the input stage completley when disabled.
\nIt is recommended to use the Pad function for 12dB-18dB-24dB-30dB only.
\nPHASE: Reverses the polarity of the pre amp\u2018s output.
\nTHE HEART
\nOF THE VSP-2
\nTHE DISCRETE OP AMP 1976
\n99% of all newer designs use an I-ntegrated C-ircuit for this job which makes production easy and cost extensive.<\/p>\n
Here\u2018s the big difference!<\/p>\n
The Vertigo Sound 1976 is a fully discrete
\nDISCRETE OPERATIONAL AMPLIFIER<\/p>\n
This very well thought out classic circuitry together with the Jensen JT16 transformer and Panasonic Coupling Caps plus the specific choice of components of the OP Amp gives you a fresh, punchy precise colourful sound without sounding dull or nasty at anytime.<\/p>\n
