Description
Description
Discrete Line Amplifier (500 Series)
Features: Continuously variable detent input level trim, phase inversion switch, -20dB input pad, calibrate level mode, output ratio selector, clip LED indicator, continuously variable detent output level trim, traditional API fully discrete circuit design, audio circuitry uses renowned 2510 and 2520 op amps
The 535 is modeled after API's acclaimed 325 booster card, with input and output amplification and attenuation capabilities, giving it the flexibility to adapt to any use case.
And it delivers API's trademark warm and tonal sound.
The 535 excels at adding warmth to a variety of audio signals.
The recommended usage is as follows:
- Adds warmth to any type of digital signal.
-Add tone to keyboard sounds.
-Adds warmth to the mix.
Additionally, any audio playback device, mic preamp, or audio processor that doesn't have its own level control can benefit from the added tonal coloration and level control provided by the 535-LA.
The 535-LA also has a balanced input, a phase reverse switch, a 20dB pad for attenuating the input signal, and a three-position toggle switch to allow for various output gain levels from the transformer.
It is designed to drive balanced signals over long distances with low distortion, just like the 325 Booster Card does.
The output gain range is from 6dB to 45dB.
The 535 uses discrete 2510 and 2520 op amps, along with API's proprietary transformers, to produce the unique, warm, and reliable sound API customers have come to expect.
