Introducing our NEW model 411 Measurement Microphone
Preamplifier for making sound measurements using our model 817A
or 818 mic or balanced mics such as the Behringer
ECM-8000 or Dayton EMM-6. The 411 supplies both +5
and +48 phantom voltages although both mic inputs cannot be
used at the same time. Very low noise floor, wide dynamic
range. Take a look at the specs and User Guide by clicking
here.

We have reintroduced our model 4041 Battery/Mains powered Stereo
Phono Preamp (for MM and MC cartridges). The redesigned power
supply allows using 8.4V (9V size) NiCd or NiMH batteries. NiCd
batteries are becoming difficult to find but NiMH are now quit
available. Battery replacement is easy -- just snap out and snap
in the new ones. Take a look at the specs and User Guide by

We have a new phone number: 575-405-7996.
This number has voice mail so you can leave us a message.
It should be available 24/7.
We may or may not be answering 575-382-3173 so please use the new
number. (It may take a while to change it in all our web pages so
please be patient.)
We now receive very few FAX messages so we are discontinuing that
number. If you want to send a FAX, please send a FAX image to one
of our email addresses.

I found this class A power amp design by Bruce Heran on the web. It is
a minimalist design which always interests me so I built one. Excellent
sound! The zip file contains my notes and a whole lot more, including
a SPICE simulation file. Click here to take
a look (it's # 10 in the list).

We have had several inquiries lately about how to find product
prices. The easiest way is to click on PayPal -- Buy Now on
the Home page. You can also access the price list from the How To
Order Main Menu Bar. In addition, each product data sheet has
a link to the PRICE LIST at the bottom of the page. It certainly was
NOT our intention to make the price list hard to find!

named Mono-A-Mono. It is available from the author, Steve Beet,
