With the new revision, the eight-channel microphone preamplifier with 120V technology – Crescendo – also receives, in addition to the name extension by the number “8”, a facelift in the current design of the SPL Studio series. The black front panel and the revised housing are, in addition to the change of name, the only distinguishing features from the original version, since this technically already pushes the envelope.

Crescendo 8 combines the precise sound that German Rundfunk-Technik is famous for with the innovative SPL 120V technology. The internal operating voltage of 120 volts allows Crescendo microphone preamplifiers to break completely new ground. This results in microphone preamps that sound detail-rich, vivid and equally honest.

Crescendo 8 lets microphones shine in a whole new light – because they have never been amplified like this before.

What’s the difference?

• “Crescendo” becomes “Crescendo 8”.
• Crescendo 8 comes with a black front panel.
• Crescendo 8 comes with a different housing.
