Based on the proven preamps from the hugely successful PA series, the Allen & Heath ZED-16FX has DuoPre preamps, which use a two stage design with carefully controlled amounts of gain in each stage. When amplifying the signal from the XLR input, the gain range is huge—69dB of range to be exact—and is very evenly distributed around the gain control, meaning better control of signal level. Most of the gain comes from the first stage, so unwanted noise is kept to a minimum. Line level signals are simply plugged into into the second stage of the preamp by using the line input jack socket, which has the great advantages of less noise and matching to a higher input impedance
Most important of all, the Allen & Heath ZED-16FX lives up to the audio and build quality standards that have made Allen & Heath one of the most trusted names in professional audio for more than 40 years.
