Choosing the color of the A-Designs EM-Gold
Transformers occupy a key position in circuit design due to their ability to affect timbral quality. Apart from the utilitarian task of electronic isolation for noise-free operation materials are key. The alloys used for the transformer’s winding – along with the number of windings – will impart a distinct sonic quality. Nickel-wound transformers provide a more transparent sound with an airy high end. While steel can impart a thick “Neve-like” midrange or low-end “API growl”…you get the idea.
To give each preamp in the A-Designs Audio EM-Series its own unique character, each has custom-wound transformers using proprietary A-Designs alloys that have been painstakingly tested to produce the perfect sound for the right application….but that doesn’t mean that the EM-Series preamps are one-trick ponies – far from it! What it does mean is that decades of collective experience between A-Designs Audio and highly respected audio professionals have taken the guesswork out of finding the right preamp for the job. Think of each of the EM series preamps as the master of a specific domain in the frequency spectrum.
For example, the EM- Silver is stunning on the lower frequencies thanks to its steel-wound transformer, making it a perfect choice for bass or kick drum, while the EM-Blue’s nickel transformer provides the clarity needed to bring out the “crack” on snare drums, or to gently coax the highs from ribbon mics…
