Item# THER-EARLYBIRD-4
The Thermionic Culture Earlybird 4 contains 4 channels of extremely high quality valve pre-amplification. Originally made in black in 1999, this is a special "revival" limited edition in red (limited to 49 only). The black edition is still available with the updated circuitry.
As the individual channel circuitry in this version of the Earlybird has been simplified in order to provide 4 channels in one 19" unit, so the individual channel specifications have risen. Thus making this the most...

Item# THER-EARLYBIRD22
The Thermionic Culture Earlybird 2.2 contains 2 channels of very high quality valve pre-amplification. The circuit design utilizes a 'push pull' 'class A' type of amplification in order to provide ultimately clean gain, giving the lowest noise and distortion figures possible in a mic pre-amplifier.
The input and output transformers have been designed by working together with Sowter transformers to provide results that are optimized for this unit. This design work provides the Earlybird...

Item# THER-SNOW-PETREL
The Thermionic Culture Snow Petrel is designed as a two channel microphone amplifier for all types of microphones, especially certain ribbons, eg. Coles 4038, which have a lower output level than others but offer superb quality. Their full potential can be realised with this high gain unit as it has a natural valve sound with very low background noise and distortion. The passive "AIR" control is provided to lift the very high frequencies as many ribbons suffer a little loss there and this...

Item# PHOENIX-MASTER
This is the latest development in the evolution of the classic Phoenix compressor, first introduced in 1998. After requests from mastering engineers the Thermionic Culture Master Phoenix was introduced in October 2006. This was more recall-able with indented pots and slightly different power supply and metering circuit, in which trimming the meter alters the current through the compression valve so compensating for valve aging.
The compression curve of the mastering Phoenix is slightly...

Item# THER-PULLET
The Thermionic Culture Pullet is a passive EQ which has a sharp focus on mid range frequencies. The Pullet will provide the EQ network to a signal but will reduce the signal level so that a preamplifier with a gain of up to 40dB is needed in order to lift the signal back up to unity gain when the Pullet EQ is set to 'flat' or bypass.
The preamplifier is used at the output of the Pullet. The fact is that most people will already have a preamplifier that can be used, either a standalone...
