Once you get a hold of tone like this, you don't let go easily. Serious About Quality Alembic products are built for extreme durability. We make our preamps, like all of our products , right the first time. We only use the highest quality components and meticulous assembly techniques to insure a durable and rugged unit you'll be proud to hear working in your rack any time and every time. The chassis are made from sixteenth inch thick powder coated steel.
All cable assemblies are tie-wrapped and routed for minimum electronic and microphonic noise.
All tubes are rigorously, sonicly checked so that no impurity or dull tone leaves the test bench. Every unit goes through a 35 point checkout before it is given a serial number and called an Alembic. To say we are serious about quality is an understatement. There is no other preamp, graphic EQ, parametric EQ, or filter unit anywhere from anyone that can shape tone like the Alembic SF-2.
