- Key Specs
- Number of Channels: 2 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
- Surround Sound Supported: Not Applicable (Surround sound systems use multiple audio channels and speakers to create an immersive sound experience for the listener. There are also various proprietary technologies that imitate this kind of sound via a device's built-in speakers or soundbar.)

- Equalizer: true (Allows for the control of different frequencies within an audio signal, such as adjusting treble and bass levels.)
- Preamp/Processor Design: Solid state (Tube design processors use vacuum tubes to process sound, a method typically more expensive than the transistors used in solid-state processors. Depending on the desired sound, one may prefer the warm tonal quality and character that tubes provide or the crisp, clean sound of solid-state circuitry.)

Upgrade your music studio with this Warm Audio dual channel preamp. The tantalum and polystyrene capacitors coupled with an output transistor provide smoothness in high gain settings, while the tone button changes the input transformer impedance for tonal variation. This Warm Audio dual channel preamp features fully discrete Carnhill transformers with a balanced signal path and 80dB gain capability to handle powerful sound engineering tasks.
- Dual-channel '73-style microphone preamplifier: Works on all types of microphones and sources, including vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, bass, drums, percussion, orchestras, keyboards, and even as a tone-shaping tool to run partial or complete mixes through.
- Custom Carnhill transformers: With 80dB of gain and a fully discrete Carnhill transformer balanced signal path, there's no recording, mixing, or engineering task that this amplifier can't handle.
- UK Blore Edwards switch-pots: The complex dual concentric switch potentiometers in the EQ sections of the WA273-EQ amplifier are made in the UK by Blore Edwards who manufacture military-spec switches and potentiometers.
- Inputs and outputs: Include XLR mic inputs (on front and back), a line level TRS input, TS send/receive insert jacks, XLR and TRS line level outputs, and an instrument input.
- 19" rack-mountable design: Allows optimal placement.
