Description
H2 Audio 0011/Stereo is a dual-channel 2U 19-inch rackmount solid-state microphone preamp/EQ based on the Helios 2128 microphone preamp circuit and assembled by H2 Audio in Detroit as part of its Helios-style analog product line. Retailer documentation lists 25-75 dB gain in 5 dB steps, Lustraphone input transformers that provide 20 dB of gain before the preamps, -20 dB pads, +48 V phantom power, phase switches, EQ cut switches, electronically balanced line inputs and transformer-balanced line output amplifiers that can drive a 600 ohm load up to 25 dB before clipping. The EQ section uses inductor-based LF/MF circuits with selectable low and mid bands, fixed 10 kHz high-frequency controls, EQ bypass and selectable 40/80 Hz high-pass filters. Vintage King verifies MFR# 0011/Stereo; reviewed sources did not verify a separate black-finish part number or GTIN.
